Picture of the Week

One project includes over 4.3 million pictures and
consumes more than 13 TB of disk space.
Michael Baker utilizes Orbit GT software to deliver Mobile LiDAR point cloud data and imagery to each of our clients. Our use of Orbit is highlighted in our As Seen on TV post from last September. Typically, one of the first steps in our processing workflow is to extract the spherical imagery and publish through our online portal.

We have numerous projects served up through our BEAST platform and encompasses tens of millions of pictures. These images provide a means for processing, data validation and visualization.

Orbit Publisher provides a framework for serving content to our clients without their requirement of having infrastructure to support Big Data.

The map image shows all of the collected routes in blue.  The images at right show 3 different panoramic images captured.

Cheers!

In the News...

Michael Baker's very own Kevin Pomaski (UAS Services Director), is highlighted in a recent Nevada DOT video discussing the deployment of UAS to perform emergency assessments of road damage due to recent flooding.

 

The imagery captured during the collection was converted into colorized point clouds during post-processing. We have published them using Potree. (The interactive point cloud is supported in Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.)

 

Cheers!
