Virtual Reality
Geomatic Engineering Ltd recognises virtual reality as premium resource in the Geomatics portfolio of presentation media. Clients can immerse themselves into a dataset, adapt and change it to suit a specific design or scenario. Virtual Reality can take many forms and can be presented using computers; the Internet, goggles or purpose built immersive environments.
Virtual Reality on the Internet
Geomatic Engineering Ltd has developed an on-line visualisation suite for planning applications. With small file sizes and no software license implications, GEL can transform standard 2D elevations into 3D Virtual Reality for consultation between major stakeholders on the Internet.
Immersive Virtual Environment Scenario Training (IVEST)
Geomatic Engineering Ltd's IVEST application uses Mixed Reality to create and amalgamate real and virtually real environments. IVEST immerses humans and real objects in virtual worlds, exactly replicating physical attributes and convincing the mind of reality. On entering an IVEST enclosure, the trainee’s body and limb locations are tracked and mapped to a Virtual Environment platform and displayed through a head-mounted display. Multiple trainees are networked for team scenarios. Real environment objects and simulated weather conditions, located in the IVEST enclosure, allow a trainee to walk up and down stairs; operate and move large and small equipment; operate switches and buttons on control panels; operate levers; manipulate and deploy weapons and ammunition; all as if they were in a hostile or volatile situation or location.
