With the subtle and versatile ImageStation® photogrammetry setting from the Swedish measurement expertise and software program firm HEXAGON, significantly massive volumes of aerial picture, UAS and satellite tv for pc knowledge might be effectively processed, managed and used for geodata acquisition. A central activity that’s solved extraordinarily effectively with ImageStation® is the exact, interactive seize of 3D objects and infrastructure – similar to buildings, roads, bridges and pure terrain options.
In Germany, topographic surveying and updating of infrastructure is the accountability of the state surveying places of work. ImageStation® was specifically developed for skilled customers in photogrammetry and cartography and affords a complete set of information acquisition instruments. With a view to transfer intuitively on this stereoscopic 3D actuality and to have the ability to measure exactly, a vital management ingredient was built-in proper from the beginning: the 3D stereo mouse cursor. This implementation is a fundamental requirement for using exact 3D controllers and allows optimum cooperation with the plug & play appropriate 3D PluraView monitor options from Schneider Digital. These passive 3D screens primarily based on beam splitters ship a pixel-perfect show with as much as 4K per stereo channel, a excessive refresh charge, good colours and glorious brightness and distinction values.
The truth that the highly effective ImageStation® software program utility is absolutely appropriate with this skilled {hardware} and meets all the necessities of worldwide office requirements is confirmed by official certification from Schneider Digital – two cutting-edge applied sciences that work seamlessly collectively and symbolize a super answer for skilled photogrammetry customers.
Capturing and updating topographic geodata is a posh activity from a scientific, technical and organizational standpoint. HEXAGON’s complete photogrammetry options help the processing of static, dynamic and multi-temporal geodata worldwide. With a view to effectively rework very massive quantities of uncooked knowledge into usable info, ImageStation® has been persistently additional developed – primarily based on over 40 years of photogrammetry expertise, from analog stereoplotters to a completely complete digital software program suite together with exact 3D cursor integration.
With its photogrammetry options, HEXAGON affords an end-to-end workflow for processing high-resolution picture knowledge and geocoded CAD and GIS content material, from undertaking begin to completion. In traditional aerial photogrammetry, undertaking blocks with lateral and longitudinal overlaps of as much as 90 % are captured – body charges of 0.7 seconds are state-of-the-art. Mixed with indirect aerial pictures, picture knowledge volumes of over 3 GB per pixel are generated. Challenge blocks with over 50,000 set off stations and 5 cm floor decision – for instance for city areas – generate knowledge volumes of over 150 TB, which may now be processed with none issues.
Customers of the ImageStation® Suite profit from quite a few interactive stereo features, seamless roaming, dynamic zoom and real-time picture enhancement straight within the GIS or CAD setting. The flexibility to carry out stereo and monocompilation straight within the GIS not solely creates effectivity, but in addition permits direct comparability with current knowledge units – saving time, assets and prices.
Knowledgeable 3D stereo cursor has been carried out in ImageStation®, which allows exact navigation and three-dimensional recording of actual XYZ coordinates. Quite a few modules similar to ISPM, ISIF, ISAT, ISST, ISFC, ISSD, ISSG, ISSV, ISDC, ISDG, ISAE in addition to automated parts similar to ISAD, ISOP, ISDQ and ISPQ have this operate and help constant, quality-assured processing of geodata.
Surveying places of work and customers from the aviation, delivery and protection sectors all over the world depend on the ImageStation® Suite. ISSD, for instance, allows the processing of stereo photographs with exact 3D cursor monitoring, primarily based on aerial, satellite tv for pc or UAS photographs – together with these from Leica ADS cameras. The software program dynamically adjusts brightness and distinction (MicroStation / GeoMedia) and ensures easy stereo roaming due to the unique ImagePipe expertise – important for environment friendly stereo compilation.
ImageStation® Stereo for GeoMedia (ISSG) affords clever acquisition and modifying instruments in a GIS setting with freely configurable stereo and mono home windows. Along with the show of stereoscopic photographs, ISSG helps the acquisition, modifying and validation of 3D geometries and attributes. All generated geodata might be saved brazenly and used throughout programs. The creation of digital floor fashions (DOM) can also be a part of the vary of companies, whereby raster and vector knowledge are clearly displayed and edited. The built-in “Snap Cursor” ensures quick characteristic recognition, and contour strains might be created interactively with the “Elevation” command – together with particular person depth notion via vertical indexing.
The detailed, three-dimensional illustration of georeferenced fashions relies on computationally intensive algorithms. The 3D PluraView screens from Schneider Digital supply the right answer for skilled 3D visualization: excessive decision (as much as 4K per eye), excessive brightness, distinction, flicker-free and two absolutely synchronized shows assure an optimum, fatigue-free show, even with dynamic content material.
The cutting-edge expertise of the 3D PluraView screens, which has been tried and examined for over 14 years, is now formally licensed to be used with the ImageStation® Suite. This mixture meets the very best necessities for ergonomics, efficiency and user-friendliness in an expert setting. The whole answer is complemented by high-end workstations (Intel / AMD Threadripper), skilled graphics playing cards (NVIDIA RTX, AMD Radeon Professional) and exact 3D controllers (Stealth 3D).
HEXAGON customers thus profit from a completely built-in 3D workstation with seamless, top-level efficiency. Every little thing is completely coordinated – for environment friendly stereoscopic knowledge processing and most productiveness.
Josef Schneider, CEO of Schneider Digital, places it in a nutshell:
“{Hardware} and software program are like physique and thoughts. Our 3D screens not solely make 3D knowledge seen, but in addition usable. Because of the right symbiosis with the ImageStation® Suite, the complicated processes in photogrammetric geodata acquisition might be dealt with intuitively, shortly and conveniently.”
Benefits for PluraView customers with ImageStation®:
– Handy stereoscopic viewing and surveying
– Seamless stereo roaming and dynamic zoom via ImagePipe expertise
– Intuitive navigation by way of mouse, keyboard or 2D map view
– Automated correlation of tangible XYZ coordinates
