GeoVisionary Set To Wow ESRI

data, such as geotechnical, environmental and geochemical information to be
overlaid onto it, giving a complete picture. Intermap’s Booth 1823 will show
GeoVisionary in all its glory using stereoscopic rear projection to give
visitors a 3D view of the landscape.
GeoVisionary has been designed in such an open way that it is not limited to
the British shores or BGS data. BGS has already used the application to
validate and plan projects internationally and it has also gathered
planetary data, such as that freely provided by NASA, and investigated how
best to view and interpret such data. Bruce Napier, leader of BGS' Virtual
Field Reconnaissance project, remarked: "GeoVisionary is a huge leap in
geoscience visualisation technology.”
GeoVisionary will be demonstrated by Andrew O’Keeffe from Virtalis and Bruce
Napier and Luke Bateson from BGS. Andrew, who is in charge of the sales team
for GeoVisionary, commented: “I have found that as datasets have become ever
more detailed they have become impossible to render owing to memory
constraints. GeoVisionary effortlessly overcomes this problem, allowing
people to visualise, analyse and interpret the full impact of their data in
real-time for the first time. The market for GeoVisionary is vast and my
colleagues and I have got a big task ahead.”
