3D PDFs for Geospatial Data Reporting

地理空间数据在广泛的工业和信息部门的决策过程和规划工作中日益成为重要的组成部分。因此，有必要共享3D地质模型，以便与同行和客户合作。出于这种目的，专有软件的安装可能既昂贵又复杂。然而，每个人都可以轻松地在低成本平台上查看PDF文档。拟议的技术使全球的组织和机构能够以PDF格式交付和共享支持技术信息的3D地理空间模型。目前用于生成3D pdf报告的3D pdf工具存在以下问题，我们的目标是克服这些问题：压缩不良、属性丢失、地理位置坐标系统丢失以及缺乏地理感知的3D测量功能。地理空间正在急剧增长；数据变得势不可挡，大数据已经成为计算领域的一个新课题。这些问题包括安全、隐私、数据集的协作、数据的所有权以及聚集大量众包数据的问题。视觉科技服务有限公司（VTS）的目标是将他们的基本PDF3D工程工具引入地理空间数据报告市场，允许在各种文件格式和坐标系统上轻松使用3D pdf，具有一系列功能，市场需求通过完整的tsb市场证明项目输出得到验证。关键的好处是使复杂和大型地理空间模型能够在跨多个设备的零成本平台上变得高度便携和可见。创新之处在于，3D PDF将克服市场上现有替代软件存在的问题，如压缩性能差、属性丢失、地理位置坐标系统丢失以及缺乏地理感知的3D测量功能。因此，使用pdf3d将使准确数据的成本效益共享，而不会丢失任何特征或信息。

Geospatial data is becoming an increasingly important component in decision makingprocesses and planning efforts across a broad range of industries and information sectors.Thus, there is a need to share 3D geologic models for collaboration with peers and clients.Proprietary software can be expensive and complex to install for such purposes. However,everyone can easily view a PDF document on low cost platforms. The proposed technologyenables organisations & institutions across the globe to deliver and share 3D geospatialmodels supporting technical information in the PDF format. Current 3D pdf tools forproducing 3D PDF reports suffer from the following issues which we aim to overcome: poorcompression, loss of attributes, loss of geo-location coordinate systems, and lack of geo-aware3D measurement features. Geospatial is growing dramatically; data is becomingoverwhelming and big data has become a new subject in the computing field. There are theissues of security, privacy, collaboration of datasets, ownership of data and issues withaggregating the massive amount of crowd-sourced data.Visual Technology Services Ltd (VTS) aim to bring their basic PDF3D engineering tool to thegeospatial data reporting market, allowing the easy use of 3D PDFs over various file formatsand co-ordinate systems, with a range of functionality, market need proven with a completedTSB Proof of Market project output. Key benefit is to enable complex and large geospatialmodels to become highly portable and viewable on zero cost platforms across multipledevices. Innovation lies in the fact that the 3D PDF will overcome issues that currentalternative software on the market has, such as poor compression, loss of attributes, loss ofgeo-location coordinate systems, and lack of geo-aware 3D measurement features. Thus usingPDF3D will enable the cost effective sharing of accurate data without the loss of any featuresor information.
