Hexagon maps the globe with 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天鈥檚 Cloud Data Platform
Powers massive-scale industry autonomy and sustainability projects
There鈥檚 nothing more powerful than hearing a customer share how聽the right data at the right scale can make a significant business impact聽for them and their clients. During 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天鈥檚 recent employee event in
Seattle, Hexagon’s President of Geospatial Content Solutions, John聽Welter, gave a fascinating overview of how 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 has helped their聽company over the years. As a $4.3 billion global leader in digital
reality solutions, Hexagon combines sensor, software and聽autonomous technologies that are the underpinning to many聽industries and businesses working to be more productive, efficient,聽and profitable. He emphasized how critical IT solutions like theirs, in聽concert with 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天鈥檚 File Data Platform, support a smart digital聽reality that helps their clients test a wide variety of applications in a聽virtual environment.
Creating a digital twin of the world to support industry autonomy
From construction to city services, and mining or federal government聽agencies, Hexagon captures reality by scanning environments on the聽ground or even below the water鈥檚 surface鈥攁 city, building, roads,聽infrastructure assets, indoor spaces鈥攖o see what鈥檚 important. They聽leverage the captured data to inform smart analytics, interpretations,聽and industry action.
Our HxGN Content Program鈥攖he largest library of high-quality aerial imagery, elevation data, 3D models and analytics covering North America and Western Europe鈥揾as captured more than 27 million square kilometers in the last 8 years and is storing 4 petabytes of final product on the cloud. There鈥檚 a lot riding on it and we need to choose the right IT partner.
Hexagon鈥檚 geospatial data library has grown from 150 gigabytes captured in the field per day and stored in 2002 to 160 terabytes聽now stored, processed, and quickly distributed to customers daily. 鈥淚t鈥檚 two orders of magnitude that require scale. And on our sensor roadmap, the next sensor will have 40 percent more data without faster cycles or higher resolution,鈥� added Welter. Sometimes, it is ingested and turned around for one of the company鈥檚 top customers in as few as three days.
Hexagon customers, including government agencies, will continue to push for more, faster data streams and mission-critical insights. Why? They are confronted with mounting pressure on urban planning, stemming from smart city applications, and when facing聽unexpected challenges such as city- and state-wide emergencies, noise and light pollution, or rapidly growing populations. Hexagon is ready to address these demands, unforeseen problems, and more, because 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 and other partners deliver IT infrastructure that gives choice, flexibility, and reliability when handling the unstructured data and changing points of reference.
The 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 partnership has 鈥渘ever felt transactional,鈥� concluded Welter. Hexagon can rely on 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天鈥檚 round-the-clock support,聽storage choices (e.g., on-premise, cloud, or hybrid), and enhanced capabilities to achieve more productivity, creative business聽models, and engagement with communities or customers as solutions are brought to market and the company grows in the future.
Business Impact
- Streamlined storage: With 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 storing five聽petabytes and growing data from Hexagon,
especially mission-critical government data often聽needed in 72 hours or less, they streamlined
workflows and decreased field-to-product time. Four聽petabytes of final data product eventually reside in聽the cloud as a result of 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 also running on聽Amazon Web Services (AWS). - Data proliferation and accuracy: With 一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天,聽Hexagon can scale its storage to support abundant,
high-resolution data points under management. Countrywide聽data sets are available at 15 cm and 30 cm resolutions in the U.S. and at 12.5 cm and 30 cm resolutions in聽Europe. For cities, high-definition data sets are聽captured at 5 cm resolution for images alongside聽high-density LiDAR point clouds, providing the聽highest positional accuracy and temporal consistency. - Optimized revenue and customer savings:聽一本久久综合亚洲鲁鲁五月天 helps Hexagon better manage its data and聽storage environment, while supporting storage聽purchases in an OPEX versus CAPEX way that impacts聽demand-driven consumption and cost-saving for聽customers, plus recurring revenue for Hexagon.
