Coordinates and the systems to which they reference can be either a very complex, or a very simple thing depending upon how you look at them. The fact that such possibly complex concepts can be simplified is a blessing and probably very welcomed by many. You’d be surprised by how many people we encounter working…
Problem The following warning message is displayed when attempting to set-up the floating license client:”Successfully completed setting up the floating license client but having trouble contacting the specified License Server. (24284) ERROR: TCP channel protocol violation: expecting preamble.” Solution The error concerning TCP Channel Protocol violation is likely occurring due to either: incompatible LP360 versions,…
This month we are busy finalizing features and testing the 2014 annual release of GeoCue, which will be available in the coming weeks. We’ve worked hard to vastly improve the GeoCue update and installation user experience with our recently completed Quick Installer. The new installer handles updates to the software, both client and server, as…
GeoCue’s ongoing software development in support of optimized geospatial processing workflows includes research into Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) technology. GPUs, on both local and remote nodes, provide additional processing power for churning through mountains of imagery and LIDAR data. Stating the obvious, GPU technology has been around for a while. But what is less obvious…
LIDARgrammetry is a term coined by GeoCue for using the intensity information as the source data for generating stereo models of the project area directly from the LIDAR data itself rather than from ancillary imagery. By creating appropriate stereo pairs from the LIDAR intensity images, it is possible to generate stereo models that can be…
Spatial data layers, predictive model outcomes, and GIS maps describing wildlife habitat relationships are now standard tools for guiding wildlife management and monitoring, and for targeting conservation actions in places where they have the greatest impact (Craighead and Convis 2013). Therefore, it’s not hard to imagine why airborne LiDAR has rapidly become one of the…
GeoCue includes a command for launching ESRI’s ArcMap product. This command is called “RUN_ARCMAP” and can be found on the Commands tab within Environment Builder. The checklist step can be customized using the following parameters, or additional parameters when configuring a checklist step to run the RUN_ARCMAP command. To pass a file or group of…
Symptom: If the TCP Port defined for the LP360 License Server is currently in use by another program then it will be necessary to select another port for use by LP360. Probable Resolution: Change the specified TCP Port number for the LP360 License Server Service: On the machine hosting the LP360 License Server open the…
AAM is a geospatial services company based in Australia with offices and operations around the globe. They began performing aerial surveys over 50 years ago and today operate a fleet of 14 aerial survey aircraft equipped with a range of digital aerial cameras and airborne LIDAR sensors.
