The Importance Of Impeccable Imagery Brings New PCI System To The Forefront


PCI Geomatics has released a new, cost effective system for automated satellite image processing and job scheduling. 

The ProLines GeoImaging Server is an off the shelf, hardware based, high performance image processing system.  This’s announcement was made during the ASPRS 2009 Annual Conference in Baltimore, Maryland. The ProLines GeoImaging Server reduces bottlenecks for image pre-processing by encompassing modern computer hardware with programming techniques.  The system combines the power and precision of Graphical Processing Units (GPU) with the accuracy and expertise of PCI’s automated workflows (i.e. ProLines).  The benefits of ProLines include: the automation of repetitive and time consuming tasks, consistent results, operational efficiency, reduced labor costs and shorter delivery cycles. PCI Geomatics currently delivers client configured ProLines GeoImaging Servers for orthorectification, pansharpening, and mosaic creation, for most satellite and aerial sensors. This system brings specialized geo-imaging processing to an open architecture leveraging high performance hardware components, controlled by an advanced Job Processing System (JPS).  The ProLines GeoImaging Server can be configured as a desk-side or rack-mount system, and key components such as data storage and GPU processing can be upgraded to meet client demands.
