Geospatial Video Mapping

Imagine being able to "see" the street on your GPS Telematics in-car navigation systems.  You get all the visual cues, like the store on the corner, and the street signs that are posted. Instead of a graphical mapping depiction of the street, which does not provide any "visual cues",  you will see the actual driving route. Video mapping driving directions now make visual sense.

Geospatial video mapping replaces graphical representation of a the roadway with actual video, stored or via a live feed, to enable the viewer to see an actual picture or video of the street and the surroundings. Video mapping is a relatively new concept based on the convergence of various technologies to include multimedia, GPS data collecting, and digital mapping. Additional technologies are extending and expanding this convergence with the addition of geospatial mashups, user generated visual information, social networking, prosumer media.

GFI has a unique niche in the convergence of these technologies. Our Geocode encoding methods for implanting GPS location information into video, is unsurpassed. It enables better management of location data embedded into visual information files. Additionally, our patented format representation specification ensures that the location information when transmitted over telecommunication networks reduces data latency and accuracy. 

Our Geospatial Media Recorder (GMR) collects visual information and put the GPS coordinates right into the video as a data item. This enables each frame of video to be geospatially referenced to the location of where the video was shot. No other geospatial video capture solution has this patented solution.

GFI's GeocodeŽ increases the productivity in geospatial analysis, reduces the data overhead for transmission of geospatial information over telecommunication networks, enables the representation of a pinpoint location down to within 3 cm horizontally and 1 meter vertically, and enables better information security by eliminating the use of alpha text characters necessary for most decryption techniques.
