Title

Mobile Version of Geospatial Information Hub (mGIH)

Business Needs / Challenges

By adopting advanced geospatial data processing techniques and new technologies to develop a web-based dissemination and application system for effective use of advanced geospatial data models/datasets on various aspects in the government, including land administration, land and engineering surveying, construction management, rescue, transportation, heritage conservation, consultation and other decision makings.

Application Areas

City Management
Development
Infrastructure

Expected Outcomes

The proposed system should provide following functions:
I. To implement web-based geo-visualization tools/viewers for view and discovery of various types of advanced geospatial data, including:
(a) meshed models from geo-referenced imagery;
(b) 3D point-cloud data from geo-referenced imagery and 3D laser scanners;
(c) complex geometric networks composed of discrete nodes and arcs; and
(d) structural data from geo-referenced imagery.
II. To implement geoprocessing engine for data format conversion, including commonly used open and commercial data formats; and
III. To interface with 2D/3D map interfaces for better visualization effects.
