RESULTSANDCASE STUDIES

Page 28: PCI Geomatics Overview

“ “We never would have undertaken a project of this magnitude if not for the cost-effective automation and flexibility that PCI software offers”

- Russ Cowart President

OTHER RESULTS

Ability to process multiple different types of images to create seamless mosaics

High quality pan-sharpened image products

For over 20 years, i-cubed has used PCI software to generate high quality orthorectified products that are delivered to its customers through various platforms, including on-demand streaming. Processing large land masses is a critical aspect for i-cubed, since customers look for the depth of their imagery catalogs over different areas of interest around the world.

Page 29: PCI Geomatics Overview

“Traditional methods for correcting SPOT images were simply too expensive and time-intensive to meet the needs of our client, the Government of Canada. The scalability of a PCI Geomatics automated orthorectification system will allow for the rapid and cost-effective production of accurate images with little user intervention”- Brett Michelson Vice President

OTHER RESULTS Ability to scale operations based on

demand

National Imagery Project: over 5,000 SPOT 4/5 images orthorectified covering the complete Canadian landmass (see: http://www.profsurv.com/magazine/article.aspx?i=70337)

Blackbridge Geomatics operates a ground receiving station in Lethbridge, Alberta. They use PCI technology to quickly and efficiently produce continuous maps of complete provinces (e.g. Alberta, British Columbia) based on the large volumes of SPOT imagery.

““Through the use of the GXL Cloud system that PCI has deployed to our Amazon Cloud instances, we are working diligently to provide high-resolution and high-quality content as quickly as possible for the ArcGIS Online platform”- Steven Lambert Senior Program Manager

OTHER RESULTS Implementation of a Cloud

based GXL system capable of processing up to 3 terabytes per day

Integrated processing and publishing petabytes of color balanced, continuous base imagery to www.ArcGIS.com

See http://pci.gl/wdqxP7 for samples of Esri published imagery processed by the GXL Cloud System

Esri invited PCI to become a Gold Level Business partner in 2009, recognizing PCI’s expertise in high speed, high quality satellite image processing. Faced with the daunting task of pan sharpening, orthorectifying and mosaicking 50 million km2 of GeoEye imagery, Esri turned to PCI Geomatics.

Page 31: PCI Geomatics Overview

“ “The speed of the GXL-Aerial system is impressive - by using the GXL system, we are able to save time and money – allowing us to expand our business”

- Georges Munceanu President

OTHER RESULTS Quick integration of the GXL system into STi’s

production chain thanks to dedicated, on site training by PCI Geomatics experts

Ability to correct thousands of UltraCam images per day

Expansion into new markets thanks to cost savings

Société Topographie Informatique selected PCI’s GXL solution to process its high resolution UltraCam imagery quickly and efficiently – turnaround time is a key aspect of their business. In a highly competitive aerial market, STi has been able to differentiate itself from competitors - and obtain more projects.
