Point Cloud Processing

Leica Geosystems announces the exclusive distribution of RealityLINx Model 5.4 - powered by Leica point cloud Engine (pcE) technology. RealityLINx Model 5.4 speeds and simplifies the processing of as-built laser scans into intelligent models that feed into popular 3D plant design software and into INOVx plant asset management software. The new Leica pcE foundation has enabled third-party software developer and Leica Geosystems business partner, INOVx, to add more powerful and flexible point cloud capabilities to RealityLINx Model software. RealityLINx Model v5.4 offers advantages over both prior versions of RealityLINx Model and alternate paths from scans to intelligent models in plant... (read more)

Image Processing Application

ITT and ESRI have taken on a strategic partnership to integrate their respective software technologies. This integration delivers advanced, image processing and analysis capabilities to the ArcGIS platform and expands the distribution of these new technologies globally. ENVI EX is an image processing and analysis solution that is tightly integrated with ArcGIS. As mapping and imagery-based applications continue to converge, ENVI EX supplies the growing market's need for image processing and analysis solutions that are both easier to use and integrated with GIS workflows, and provide the scientific accuracy needed for decision makers. Based on ENVI ENVI... (read more)

TerraPos Post-processing Software

The Norwegian company Terratec has introduced software capable of accurate positioning based on post-processing of GPS-observations, without the use of reference stations or DGPS services. Typical accuracy for kinematic applications are 3cm horizontally and 4cm vertically (RMS). This level of accuracy makes the software unique worldwide. TerraPos utilises precise orbits and clock corrections for the satellites, together with advanced error modelling to produce positions with impressing accuracy. Typpical RMS for a kinematic survey is 3cm horizontally and 4cm vertically. The result is an excellent tool for positioning in applications allowing for post-processing, such as airborne photogrammetric or Lidar operations, seabed... (read more)

Web-based Lidar Data Processing

The use of 3D laser scanning is growing enormously, and the amount of data is growing accordingly. It is becoming increasingly difficult to acquire the in-house technical capability to store, manage and analyse this massive volume of data. The flood of laser scanning data demands more effective tools that have greater automation, lower cost and more accurate results. With the above requirements in mind, GeoSignum has been developing new tools and technologies for automated analysis and interpretation of huge Lidar datasets which can be accessed through its web-based Pointer platform. Because the Pointer platform is cloud-based, the user no longer has... (read more)

New GIS Platform for Satellite Image Search, Storing, Analysis and Visualisation

Most image analysis tasks that required ENVI or Erdas Imagine software are now available online thanks to EOS Platform, a new cloud service launched by Earth Observing System (EOS). It provides GIS professionals with a one-stop solution for search, analysis, storing and visualisation of large amounts of geospatial data. EOS Platform is an ecosystem of four mutually integrated EOS products, which together provide a powerful toolset for geospatial analysts. Image data obtained from LandViewer or uploaded from a user’s computer is stored in cloud-based EOS Storage and is instantly available for remote sensing analysis or image processing. EOS Processing offers... (read more)

Magellan’s BLADE GNSS Signal Processing

Magellan (France) has announced its BLADE technology, a proprietary GNSS processing solution that makes possible centimetre-level accuracy for real-time and post-processing surveys and mapping operations. Magellan’s BLADE (Base Line Accurate Determination Engine) combines ranging and carrier phase data from two satellite systems, GPS and SBAS, for superior satellite coverage and signal reliability to enable rapid, centimetre-level solutions. It is the first GNSS processing system that uses SBAS ranging and carrier phase measurements in the RTK data processing. These SBAS measurements, which are GPS-like, improve satellite geometry to allow centimetre-level accuracies to be achieved in a shorter time compared to... (read more)

Automated Processing of Oblique Imagery

Connectivity Graph to Cope with Tilted Views

Oblique multi-camera systems are rapidly maturing and expanding the market for airborne technology and services. Because datasets of oblique images are large, automated processing is a necessity. Here, the authors present a workflow for the automated orientation of large oblique blocks using a connectivity graph and discuss automated dense matching of oblique images. Oblique airborne multi-camera systems are increasingly complementing traditional vertical views. Previously hidden façades and building footprints are unveiled in oblique views, which makes oblique imagery useful for 3D city modelling and cadastral purposes as well as emergency rapid response and scene interpretation. In the past, the spotlight... (read more)
