Guiding a cargo vessel into port is always challenging, but especially so during foul weather. This case study outlines how ports in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro are enjoying operational, efficiency and safety benefits following the installation of a real-time metocean monitoring system called SISMO.
Technology evolves as we improve how information is gathered, analyzed and implemented into various applications. For instance, Vertical Takeoff and Landing aircraft (-VTOL) can take off, hover and land vertically. Designing new types of VTOL aircraft, such as an all electric eVTOL large enough to carry passengers, requires massive data gathering and accurate measurements in a range of environment…
A retrospect of the Trimble Indoor Mobile Mapping Solution (TIMMS), examining its: value to inertial indoor mapping, design, application in an especially demanding environment - and newest companion post-processing software release, which offers more intuitive, powerful control over each project.
The objective of this project is to create an accurate 3D model of the baseball stadium, focusing on “Press box”, home plate and extending out to first base and third base. All physical obstructions that are within the azimuth of the Doppler radar field of view were identified using the model. The Doppler radar tracks the baseball velocity, trajectory, ball spin and other factors. Any nets, cables…
Accurate nautical charts ensure safe navigation and better voyage planning. These are graphic representations of a maritime area and coastal regions, showing depths of water and heights of land, details of the seabed and the coastline, navigational threats, and structures, such as harbours.
