Like raster and vector data many years ago, 3D clouds of billions of LiDAR points — which can be colored and very realistic — are an exciting new data type. However, they pose many software challenges, and software vendors are working hard to develop new software to manage, process, visualize, and extract features from point clouds. “We have many tools to make 3D measurements from imagery that can be applied to make 3D measurements from point cloud data,” says Zhang. “That is our legacy and our competitive advantage.”]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/processing-point-clouds/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/u-s-army-increases-geospatial-intelligence-for-commands-with-socet-gxp http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/u-s-army-increases-geospatial-intelligence-for-commands-with-socet-gxp#comments Tue, 13 Sep 2011 04:59:53 +0000 cgordon http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=3654
The U.S. Army recently signed a multi-year agreement to add more than 500 new SOCET GXP licenses. As the Army consolidates legacy systems into the Distributed Common Ground System – Army (DCGS-A) enterprise, the program must meet wide-ranging requirements for imagery and geospatial analysis. SOCET GXP v3.2 is optimized for handling large data sets and many layers of information derived from various sensors and geodatabases. Users exploit the data through collaborative video analysis and other tools, helping the Army visualize the battle space.]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/u-s-army-increases-geospatial-intelligence-for-commands-with-socet-gxp/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/bae-systems-expands-presence-in-india http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/bae-systems-expands-presence-in-india#comments Thu, 26 May 2011 03:59:23 +0000 kara.kellogg http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=3457

BAE Systems developed SOCET GXP, a versatile geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) tool that uses imagery from commercial, satellite and tactical sources to identify and analyze ground features. With SOCET GXP, users can automatically measure, annotate, store and retrieve ground features in a series of images to expedite geospatial production, image analysis and map creation. ]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/photo-and-image-analysis-aids/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/automatic-extraction http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/automatic-extraction#comments Wed, 23 Mar 2011 06:10:07 +0000 cgordon http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=3265
Algorithms that deal with only one invariant property (above the ground) are much simpler and therefore much more likely to be successful. At BAE Systems, engineers and scientists are taking this approach for automatic 3-D feature extraction. ]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/automatic-extraction/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/geospatial-ttps-contribute-to-cyber-security http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/geospatial-ttps-contribute-to-cyber-security#comments Thu, 02 Dec 2010 04:00:12 +0000 cgordon http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=2875
The geospatial tradecraft has benefited from the development of tools, techniques, and procedures (TTP) that play a major role in combating terrorism in the 21st century. These TTPs have improved the situational awareness of the operational environment, which is vital to understanding and mitigating threats. The cyber environment provides a new haven for those intending to act against U.S. national security interests but threats can be reduced by using geospatial TTPs. A geospatial perspective of the cyber environment increases situational awareness of computer network attacks and intelligence gathered from targeted hosts against command, control, computers, and communications that drive intelligence, surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR). ]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/geospatial-ttps-contribute-to-cyber-security/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/rich-basket-of-tool-kits-industry-players-are-continually-updating-their-geospatial-exploitation-tool-kits-to-meet-ongoing-challenges http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/rich-basket-of-tool-kits-industry-players-are-continually-updating-their-geospatial-exploitation-tool-kits-to-meet-ongoing-challenges#comments Thu, 02 Dec 2010 03:00:19 +0000 cgordon http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=2881
… “In our world, analysts have traditionally used the desktop,” said Mark Sarojak, BAE Systems’ director of global sales and marketing for SOCET GXP. “It was the best and only environment to do heavy number crunching. Now we see more enterprise applications where operations can be handled on a centralized server while the analyst sits at a desktop.”]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/rich-basket-of-tool-kits-industry-players-are-continually-updating-their-geospatial-exploitation-tool-kits-to-meet-ongoing-challenges/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/bae-systems-and-geosemble-integrate-geospatial-technologies http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/bae-systems-and-geosemble-integrate-geospatial-technologies#comments Sun, 27 Jun 2010 22:00:09 +0000 kara.kellogg http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=2561

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are gaining popularity because of their versatility, persistence, and the minimized risk to operators involved in tactical military missions and civil operations. The development of adaptable platforms and sensors accelerates the need to transform motion imagery into intelligence. BAE Systems’ SOCET GXP® Video Analysis tool reads and displays live video feeds or saved video files from airborne sensors. It is geospatially enabled to provide a highly accurate resource for analyzing video and uses the real-world geographic information embedded in many UAS and UAV streams — country, region, city, postal code, latitude, longitude. ]]> http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/modern-unmanned-systems-make-their-mark/feed 0 http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/remote-sensing-by-remote-control-uavs-become-invaluable-assets http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/gxp-in-the-news/remote-sensing-by-remote-control-uavs-become-invaluable-assets#comments Thu, 10 Dec 2009 05:00:47 +0000 gxpwebadmin http://www.socetgxp.com/gxpmosaic/?p=2053
