Harris Atlas Systems LLC has been awarded an $8 million dollar
contract to provide a Middle Eastern government agency with a system
that will ensure that critical military and public safety information
can be shared quickly, easily and securely even under the most demanding
circumstances.
The advanced geospatial intelligence solution consists of enterprise and mobile versions of Harris Corporation’s Active Catalog system, which enables users to manage, share, and retrieve large volumes of geospatial data — information that identifies the geographic location and characteristics of natural or constructed objects — that reside throughout an enterprise. It also provides access to live data feeds, and can generate and publish documents and map products of urban environments.
Active
Catalog integrates with a variety of Open Geospatial
Consortium-compliant and standard geographic information systems
software, such as ESRI and Bentley, which many customers are already
using for military, intelligence and public safety operations. With
sophisticated techniques to extract metadata, it supports a wide range
of data formats, including overhead and aerial imagery, maps,
intelligence reports, sensor data and other derived products. Data and
metadata are securely shared between enterprise and remote versions of
the system, enabling remote users to access enterprise-based geospatial
intelligence data and also send field-collected information back to the
enterprise.
Leveraging 130 patents and more than 30 years of experience developing systems for the largest geospatial customers, Active Catalog goes beyond traditional catalog capabilities to one that incorporates a variety of data sources, and effectively support remote users in the most limiting environments — such as in a disaster or emergency — and delivers the highest level of security possible, Leon Shivamber, managing director, Harris Atlas Systems explains.
