irish earth observation symposium 2014: point cloud data management with erdas imagine and apollo
DESCRIPTION
Rapid increase in the volume and number of imagery data sets places significant pressures on data managers – they need to be able to place new data sets in a controlled enterprise data management environment that ensures the maximum number of authorised users are able to find and access the resource.TRANSCRIPT

Coming in 2015
Point Cloud Compression and StreamingFormat being used Hexagon wide.
New format for compressing point clouds, result is ~10% of the
original size.
Access is very fast
Includes generalization (i.e. pyramid layers)
ECWP Protocol used to stream from APOLLO into applications

Wizard-driven Workflow to
Catalog and Publish
Search any file system visible
to the server for data.
Set schedulers to repeat the
search on a given schedule
as a one-time event or on a
recurring basis.
Process and service-enable
the datasets.
Set security to control access.
Restrict by user, resolution
and location.

Why treat LAS like a Raster
(Conversion to grid)Why treat LAS like raster?
Easy viewing
Easy distribution
Because LiDAR is so dense and
semi-regular it can be gridded quickly
and automatically
