Harris, Boundless target geospatial technology
Harris Corporation and Boundless have announced that they will work together to extend joint capabilities in open-source geospatial technology.
The partnership will focus on making it easier and more cost-effective for customers to access, manage and share location-based data available from devices, sensors and satellites.
Harris has developed a geospatial data warehouse called One Object One Time (1O1T), which eliminates redundant data and stores the most current representation of geospatial objects such as lighthouses or communications towers. This capability is designed to ensure data currency and reduce the time required for processing and delivering content and products compared with traditional methods
Boundless’ OpenGeo Suite is an open-source enterprise geospatial software bundle that can expand existing offerings such as 1O1T. Boundless experts support and consult around the implementation of OpenGeo Suite components including GeoServer, PostGIS, Open Layers and QGIS.
Andy Dearing, CEO, Boundless, said: ‘Harris provides top-notch, responsive products for some of the most important geospatial initiatives in the world. Together, we are extending the possibilities of the open-source geospatial platform.’
