Aerospace, Geospatial Data Processing

Cloudflight Aerial Processing Service (CAPS)

Reducing calculation time and operational risk with Cloudflight's automated production process for DSMs, TrueDOP and 3D Meshes.

Integrating solutions

We partnered with company nFrames and integrated their world-class solution to reconstruct 3D surface from imagery, SURE, into DER CLUSTER.

 

We built processing chains that parallelize as many steps as possible, integrated them in our job scheduler for DER CLUSTER – this enabled us to provide a monitored and quality controlled full-service offering.

The challenge

Is there such a thing as too much data?

We were approached by a customer who was facing the issue of an untypically large project: The number of images and data was too large to be handled with their in-house infrastructure within the given time.

In addition, the client had never carried out a project of this size before, which posed a significant operational risk for them. That’s why the customer asked us to create and deliver the results for them as a full service.

Handling massive amounts of data... quickly

We employed our own software solutions together with required additional methods to run on DER CLUSTER with satisfactory speed, performance, and delivery of all required products. In comparison to processing with only a few individual machines, we sped up the process by leveraging the processing power of DER CLUSTER.

In the end, even though it is an automated service, we are still capable of tuning the processes into our customer’s specific needs and wishes.

If you want to get your processing done in days instead of weeks/months, or if you need a partner for data processing for your own aircraft, we are here for you: contact us now to discuss our services.
