Expert Talk: At ODDs with Standardization
Operational Design Domains getting standardized. But what is ODD describing in detail and for what should it be used? Let's have a brief overview...
Motion in Digital Twin Contribution
In stakeholders of mobility we showed that it makes sense to think outside the box of mobility when it comes to creating a digital twin. Now the first serious initiative was announced...
Expert Talk with AnteMotion: Rules vs Reality – Procedural Environment Generation
In simulation and geodata business, rules are an essential part of creating reality’s digital twin. Rule-based procedural environment generation is a convenient way of increasing the amount of data for developing, training, and testing mobility systems...
Relativity on Two Wheels
In one of my first posts I explained the difference of absolute vs relative. Now I have a different example because I also like to ride on two wheels...
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...
