1. Announcing Intergraph 2013 Geospatial Roadshow: United. Modern. Dynamic.

Your "Geospatial Experts" from MFB-GeoConsulting are pleased to help to present the comprehensive solution of Intergraph Geospatial 2013 SW that connects all geospatial genres, integrating photogrammetry, remote sensing, and GIS into a streamlined system, on the Intergraph Geospatial 2013 World Tour..  The Tour stops in  Switzerland - Bern - on 7 March 2013, where we offer you a detailed presentation, on Photogrammetry (LPS & ImageStation), on the Next Generation Spatial Modeler, Change Detection, Server Solutions, Geodata Management, ect., together with GEOSYSTEMS and Intergraph Schweiz AG. Free of charge.

United. Intergraph has unified and streamlined the geospatial technologies needed to complete customer projects on time, on budget while maintaining the highest level of fidelity. Modern. Our clever and well-designed products define new standards for usability and user experience. We believe that powerful, but simple solutions take on the highest form of elegance. Dynamic.

2. ATCOR for IMAGINE 2013 is now available

ATCOR for IMAGINE 2013 has been  released a few days ago. The new version supports several additional sensors: e.g. THEOS, Pleiades and the future Landsat-8 OLI and has as well some fixes for known problems...

Important: ATCOR for IMAGINE 2013 has its own and completely new licensing mechanism as Intergraph has discontinued to support ATCOR with their FlexNet licensing starting with this version. The new licensing is based on RLM from Reprise Software Inc. This means to run ATCOR for IMAGINE 2013 you need two license mechanisms in parallel: a FlexNet license service for the IMAGINE base license and a RLM (GEOSYSTEMS) license service for the ATCOR license.  Please also note that dongles (ERDAS or other) will initially not be supported with ATCOR for IMAGINE 2013.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

3. ECW v3 format in ERDAS IMAGINE 2013

The new version of ERDAS IMAGINE 2013 supports in addition to JPEG 2000 and ECW v2 now also the ECW v3 file format. This was made possible through the use of version 5 of the ERDAS ECW/JP2 SDK. It allows to compress raster data more quickly and effectively.

Advantages of ECW Support in ERDAS IMAGINE 2013:

  • Support for ECW v3
  • Support for 16-bit data
  • Use of embedded metadata RPCs and statistical information
  • Use of the GeoTIFF specifications for storing the projection information
  • New multithreading compressor for ECW v2 and v3 Files
  • Full utilization of multi-core machines with high speed disks
  • Faster data compression

4. First FIX for ERDAS IMAGINE, LPS and ERDAS ER Mapper 2013

ERDAS Desktop 2013 Version 13.00.0001 provides improvements to the ERDAS Desktop 2013 products (ERDAS IMAGINE, LPS and ERDAS ER Mapper), and requires ERDAS Desktop 2013 products to be installed before this version can be installed.

The improvements include: ERDAS IMAGINE and LPS

Improved handling of international characters used in file and directory names when using the appropriate Windows Locale settings.

JPEG 2000 (JP2) encoding preference is now honored when creating JP2 files.

LPS Block file to ImageStation exporter now properly handles earth curvature, camera pixel size and orientation

ERDAS IMAGINE is now supported on Windows Server 2012

5. MFB-Geo ERDAS User Forum 2013 moved to summer

The MFB-Geo ERDAS User Forum CH has the aim to present latest SW news and to give audience to our users. That was always our goal and it is again the focus this year. To meet these demands, we have decided this year to move the Meeting from the March to June.

The new version Geospatial 2013 with its synergies between Intergraph and "formerly" ERDAS software solutions will be presented already at the  Intergraph Geospatial 2013 World Tour  in Switzerland - Bern - on 7 March 2013. Together with GEOSYSTEMS and the Intergraph Switzerland AG we will provide details of 2013 software innovations (> Agenda). Event participation is free of charge (as in our User Forum), registration is required.

A second presentation of the same content - almost 14 days later on our "Swiss ERDAS User Forum" - does not make sense. We know that many of you have already marked the March date in your agendas. The advantage of the June meeting date is - besides the experience gained with the Software Innovations of 2013 -  that we expect better weather conditions, so the ambience that offers Palais Besenval in Solothurn, is even more attractive. The new meeting date will be announced in one of our next eInfo service mailings or directly on our website.

PS: our German colleagues from GEOSYSTEMS will held their  22nd GEOSYSTEMS User Group Meeting together with the Intergraph User Forum 2013 from 18 - 19 June 2013  at the Rhein-Mosel-halls in Koblenz. You are welcome by our German partner company GEOSYSTEMS.

6. Upcoming Events

Remote Sensing Tutorial at the DGPF Annual Conference in Freiburg

The annual conference of DGPF this year is a joint meeting (DGPF/OVG/ SGPF), together with the respective associations in Austria and Switzerland. It will be held from 27.2. to 1.3. 2013 at the University of Freiburg. MFB-Geo is presenting news at the booth  of GEOSYSTEMS together with INTERGRAPH. We are looking forward to seeing you there.

We would particularly like to announce the GEOSYSTEMS tutorial in the conference program. Irmgard Runkel and Fritz Spitzer will show inter-active and automated workflows for complex image processing tasks using ERDAS tools. This tutorial "Geoinformation extracted from image data with Intergraph Geospatial 2013" will take place on 27.2. from 15:45 to17:15 h.

Our poster exhibited in the session S2.3 (analysis of remote sensing data II) on Thursday, 28.2., 14:00-15:30. The short 3-minute presentation in the auditorium 1098 will be given by Martin Sauerbier
