A wide suite
of existing remote sensing, GIS and photogrammetric software, hardware
and expertise is already in place and serves as a solid foundation for
the new instrumentation and data processing needed. The Center for Advanced
Spatial Technologies has 75 high performance (e.g. 2+ GHz, 1 GB RAM,
20 inch monitors) Windows XP remote sensing workstations running the
full suite of PCI GeoMatics software including the full range of their
photogrammetric solutions. The workstations are connected via 100 MB
home-runs to four XP servers and four large Solaris servers with a total
of more than seven terabytes of disk. A full range of peripherals is
available including a Ziess photoscanner, E-scanners, three E-plotters
and many printers. Twelve workstations will be equipped with Stereo
Eyes and serve as photogrammetric workstations. In addition to PCI the
Center supports an extensive range of software solutions including ENVI,
IDRISII, Arc 8x, GeoMedia, Oracle 8i/9i, Splus, SAS, FME, SURFUR and
many others.
