With the next release of Geomatica, PCI will be implementing support for TerraSAR-X and WorldView- 1 as well as enhanced coverage for ALOS in the form of additional JAXA files support. PCI will support the satellites via data import, orthorectification models, image mosaics and advanced data fusion techniques (including pan sharpening) as well as stereo DEM generation.

Tips and Tricks |
|
 Did you know that Geomatica 10.1 offers users the capability to export their raster, vector and bitmap data to Google Earth's KML and KMZ formats? This feature allows the user to overlay their data in virtual globe software, such as Google Earth!
To do this, the user must first access the EXPORT2KML module located in Algorithm Librarian (In Focus | Tools | Algorithm Librarian | All Algorithms | EXPORT2KML)
 Once EXPORT2KML has been launched, you can specify which raster, bitmap or vector layers you wish to export to KML or KMZ. For rasters, you can specify up to 3 8U channels to export.
If you export 1 channel and it contains metadata on PCT information, a pseudo colored image corresponding to the PCT information is displayed in Google Earth. When 3 channels are specified, the system processes the result into an RGB colored image.
You can also specify a mask to only export portions of your data in the InputMask port.

The fall was a busy time for PCI Geomatics on the tradeshow circuit. In October, we headed south to take part in Geoint in San Antonio, Texas. Not only did PCI have booth representation, but we also participated in the interoperability demonstration focusing on, "Integration of Foreign and Domestic Intelligence". 
Later that month we attended the CRSS/ASPRS Specialty Conference in Ottawa, Canada which allowed us the opportunity to reconnect with many local PCI users. 
Finally, in November, PCI Geomatics along with our Malaysian reseller Jurupro, participated in the 28th Asian Conference on Remote Sensing (ACRS) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia where we had the pleasure of meeting with many of our remote sensing customers.
