China has officially launched the GEOVIS Cloud Open Platform, a public cloud service aimed at broadening access to aerospace information applications, including remote-sensing data. The platform, introduced on Friday, provides tools and services for diverse fields such as smart agriculture, environmental management, urban development, traffic oversight, and disaster monitoring.
This innovative system is designed to make aerospace information services more accessible, simplifying the integration of critical data into various applications. Among its features, the platform includes commonly used remote-sensing products tailored for key parameters such as vegetation health, water resource management, soil conditions, and atmospheric data.
China's advancements in satellite deployment have been accompanied by significant strides in observation technologies, including the development of a high-resolution Earth observation system. These efforts have enhanced the nation's capabilities in acquiring and utilizing remote-sensing data, offering richer and more precise resources to users worldwide.
The integration of remote-sensing satellite technology is transforming industries, providing a unique combination of spatial and temporal data with high precision. This approach supports applications requiring detailed and timely information across various sectors.
Cloud-Enabled Remote Visualization System
The platform operates through a high-performance cloud visualization system, featuring a configurable interface designed to automate on-demand access to cloud resources.
GPU-Enabled CUDA Visualization Engine
Its GPU-driven visualization engine leverages a multi-GPU cluster built on Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) to deliver parallel processing capabilities for large-scale visualizations.
Multi-Dimensional Visualization
The system also supports GPU-accelerated 3D volumetric rendering and stream rendering algorithms, enabling users to explore vast datasets across three dimensions: latitude, longitude, and time.
