Niantic Spatial’s Large Geospatial Model
For every problem there is a solution and if we deal with geodata there should be also a spatial intelligence tool. This principle applies to "AI domain" as well and Niantic has a very good foundation for starting a promising enterprise to build a large geospatial model (LGM)...
In Map We Trust
Geospatial Artificial Intelligence can generate as well as check geodata. But which indicators can help to determine if the map is correct or wrong and how useful these indicators are. We also check strategies to work on assessing the trust of maps...
Blatten reloaded
Nature acts in a wide speed range. If we focus on our planet and our core subject geodata we see our data getting outdated by activity that lies somewhere between continental drift and volcanic eruptions...
BIM in the City
Apart from the road we are also dealing with the representation of the rest of the environment and we talked about the usage of CityGML and BIM for that. Nevertheless, the difference still was not quite clear and that's why we tackle this task once and for all...
White Spot Survey
The British Antarctic Survey has published the most detailed map about the landscape of Antarctica beneath the thick ice sheet. Let's get to the bottom of things...
Subterranean Mapping
Infrastructure is not only about roads and rail. This time we dig into the ground to map subterranean infrastructure. The National Underground Asset Register of the United Kingdom tries to unite the data of the various asset owners...
Closed User Group Simulation
We visited the InnoTrans 2024 to get an update about the state of affairs regarding simulation in railway domain...
Experts’ Voices: Hacks and the City
With the introduction of concepts like Smart Cities it became necessary to connect information across the silos in which they were held. One solution is to extend existing formats beyond their original purpose and, thus, have them aggregate concepts and information from other domains...
Light (and Dark) Summer Reading
Summer was in full swing and people left for vacation to try to get a break from the rat race… but you can’t escape geodata! Lately more and more people asking themselves is summer getting hotter or rainier...
Mapping Outside the Box
In our blog we often talk about geodata in the road domain. In the last years some interesting geodata from outside the box got released and we have a sneak peak into it...
