Geo-Alliance... Tapping Those Terrabytes (Imagery)


[SatNews] To be held in Moscow, this event will find the Company offering a workshop...

PCI’s distributor, Geo-Alliance, a silver sponsor at the Fifth International “Earth from Space” conference held in Moscow from November 29th through December 1st, 2011, will be presenting a workshop on the GeoImaging Accelerator (GXL). Geo-Alliance recently attended PCI’s Reseller Meeting in Montebello, Canada, where extensive training was provided on the use of GXL technology developed by PCI Geomatics. The workshop will feature how automation, speed and high throughput capability achieved with the GXL can help organizations cope with the increasing flood of imagery that needs to be processed in order to derive useful products. The workshop will include a live demonstration of the system – which is highly scalable and leverages off the shelf multi-threaded CPU/GPU processing hardware – providing processing capability of up to several Terabytes per day. In addition, Geo-Alliance will be showcasing PCI’s newest software release, Geomatica 2012, launched this past September. Geomatica demonstrations will feature how the new, native 64 bit application results in improved speeds for common processing tasks, and how automation across the platform can help reduce touch time on imagery, boosting productivity. The Earth from Space Conference is being held in the Moscow Region Vatutinki recreation center of the Russian President Administration.
