The GI-Locate algorithm is designed to select images where any feature is in view and automatically cue the operator to pick the pixel locations from the common images. The GI-View software uses Microsoft Access for data management to facilitate data archival and interfacing with other software utilities, such as GIS data management programs. The relational database architecture embedded in Access provides a simple and effective interface for recording feature attribute data and customizing data management for a particular application. The standard macro generation, query and report generation features within Access also facilitate customizing the user interface and searching and exporting of key data. The sensor assembly is designed to facilitate installation on any vehicle and does not require any field calibration or set-up procedures.
Customized packaging is available for specific vehicle or aircraft installations.
The host computer is also configured to run the GI-View software to enable data processing in the field if desired. The GI-Eye system is a GPS, inertial and digital camera sensor designed for collecting precision video data to be used for geolocation of target or feature coordinates. By recording the precise location and attitude of the video images, the extraction of feature location data is simplified and streamlined. This results in more efficient and rapid data processing - reducing the time required to generate high accuracy target or feature coordinates. The GI-View software is provided with the system to facilitate data display, processing and export or archival.
