Geodata for Railroad Simulation
In this post, we want to shed light on geodata for railroad applications with a special focus on simulation for driver training. Engineering simulation is another use case, and the big difference is that engineering will shape reality whereas drivers and operators will consume it...
Expert Interview: Hexagon Geosystems – Aldo Facchin
In our very first expert interview, we had a chance to speak to Aldo Facchin of Hexagon Geosystems about digital twins and how to perform the process from data collection to making data available for different stakeholders' use cases...
Important Steps of Geodata Processing
Without data there is no simulation and no operations and we all know that there is no "one size fits all" data source. Thus, let’s talk about the processing steps of geodata to fill a data lake...
Smart City Blast from the Past
Have you read about Toyota's plan to build a smart city called "Woven City"? Sounds like future becoming reality but sometimes history is repeating itself...
ALP.Lab: UHDMaps(R) for Simulation and Beyond
From data acquisition via data processing to keeping a data lake and having the right tooling at hand – ALP.Lab is an excellent template for what it takes to act as GEONATIVES in this world...
Absolutely Accurate Relativeness
HD maps (should) have a high precision and accuracy. Let's check out what that is telling us and if we need this...
BME Provides Open Source Model of ZalaZONE Proving Ground
BME Automated Drive Lab shares a free HD map and valuable models in different file formats for simulation software tools....
Stakeholders of Mobility
There are more stakeholders involved in mobility than you might think initially. Let's have a walk through the most important ones...
Geodata in Simulation
Simulation tries to resemble reality by means of engineering models; and it comes with a purpose. What data you need and how they are processed depends on the actual application...
About Tracks and Lanes
In German track (Spur) and lane (Fahrstreifen) are often mixed up but they are not the same. A road lane can host single and double track vehicles even with different tracks. But a track is not a lane...
