Key Highlights:
- Geoscape has collaborated with award-winning artificial intelligence startup GeoX to improve its 3D digital maps of Australia.
- Geoscape’s development of digital Australia is one of the most extensive and advanced initiatives in the world in terms of in-depth mapping of a country’s buildings.
- Geoscape has mapped all buildings and land cover in Australia and may retrieve high-resolution aerial imagery from Aerometrex’s picture repository as well.
Geoscape has collaborated with award-winning artificial intelligence startup GeoX to improve its 3D digital maps of Australia using machine vision and deep learning technologies. Dean Capobianco, CEO of Geoscape, stated that the collaboration will increase our understanding of what is at every address across the country.
“We’ll dramatically enhance our digital model of Australia by using GeoX’s unique AI technology to the finest quality aerial photos,” Capobianco added.
Accurate digital representations of Australia’s metropolitan settings serve as the foundation data for Digital Twin applications that more accurately mirror reality. Up-to-date built environment data also improve insurers’ risk assessments, allows architects to visualize new developments in the context of their surroundings, aids noise modelers in better understanding what will be impacted by noise, and powers energy use pattern modeling in commercial and residential buildings.
Impressive Visualizations
“On a national scale, advanced knowledge about the built environment can promote efficiency, cost reduction, insight, and income creation across many sectors of the economy, including insurance, property development, energy, and telecommunications,” Capobianco added. “In addition, the data visualizations are just impressive.”
Geoscape’s development of the digital model of Australia, according to Izik Lavy, co-founder, and CEO of GeoX, is one of the most extensive and advanced initiatives in the world in terms of in-depth mapping of a country’s buildings. “Our machine vision and deep learning technology open a new generation of accuracy and richness of built environment data, providing a leap forward for Geoscape compared to the technologies used so far,” Lavy said.
“By leveraging our tech and Geoscape’s continuous data processing capability, every organization in Australia could access reliable and advanced property data.”
Aerial imagery from Aerometrex
Using satellite photos, Geoscape has mapped all buildings and land cover in Australia. It may now retrieve high-resolution aerial imagery from Aerometrex’s picture repository as well.
“We’ll re-map more than 10 million structures using GeoX’s AI technology, which will encompass the majority of Australia’s metropolitan buildings.” “We will also reclaim and improve all existing buildings around the nation,” Capobianco stated.
Annual updates of 3D data for urban areas, higher definition of complex building outlines, better spatial alignment of urban environment features with legal land parcel boundaries, and improved positional accuracy of features represented in the data are among the enhancements to Geoscape’s digital Australia made possible by the partnership with GeoX. Furthermore, it includes more accurate building heights as well as more detailed solar panel and swimming pool data.
