“Linux users represent
an important segment of the geospatial community,” said Peter Hazlett, Product
Manager for Geomatica. “We are pleased to bring the functionality of Geomatica
2013 to this segment of our user base to
allow them to easily work with projects of hundreds to thousands of images in
size quickly and easily.”
Geomatica 2013 adds
incredible performance improvements to streamline your workflow like never
before. Starting with Focus, new, wizard based workflows have been added for
Atmospheric Correction that will allow users to automatically detect cloud and
haze in imagery – which will make producing seamless mosaics in cloud plagued
areas more intuitive. In OrthoEngine, users will see incredible improvements in
handling large projects, including Quality Assurance panels that automatically
update, Ground Control Point (and Tie Point) visualization, leading edge
automated seamline generation, and the best algorithms to match images to each
other automatically through new automatic ground control collection algorithms
that can achieve registration accuracies down to 1/10th of a
pixel!
Included in the
Geomatica 2013 release is a set of new, redesigned algorithms to automatically
extract Digital Elevation Models from single or up to hundreds of stereo pairs
collected by high resolution sensors. In addition, creating DEMs from
multi-source elevation data (billions of lidar points, contour lines,
breaklines) is now possible through powerful new tools for DEM creation from
vector data. All DEM generation algorithms have been implemented to leverage
OpenMP, which means customers will see big performance improvements (3x to 4x
faster than previous).
Geomatica 2013 is
available for Red Hat 5, Ubuntu 10, and Suse 11 as well as multiple versions of
Microsoft Windows (Windows XP//Windows 7/Server 2003/Server 2008). For more
