Risk Assessment - Enterprise Solutions Example
Sample Risk Assessment Workflow
Coastal Storm Surge Modeling Example - VVirtual recreation of a January 21, 2000 storm that occurred in Pointe du Chene, New Brunswick. This recreation was generated with Geomatica technology with LIDAR and airphoto data.
Problem:
Your organization uses imagery and other geospatial data to predict and model risks posed by disasters such as floods, earthquakes, fire and security threats. This work presents several challenges including – data format variation, large datasets, manual processes for risk assessment modeling, analysis and presentation are cumbersome and prone to errors and time delays.
Solution:
PCI Geomatics can deliver a customized system to help improve the productivity, accuracy and presentation of your risk assessment work. Utilize Geomatica, the most complete geospatial processing software, along with other PCI Geomatics and partner products to improve your risk assessment process flows. PCI Geomatics has experience helping organizations, including those in the insurance industry, efficiently and effectively model risk assessment. Ask us about a customized solution to fit your needs.

Coastal Monitoring - Enterprise Solutions Example
Up-to-date coastal information displayed in PCI Geomatica software
Problem:
Accurate coastline mapping and the resultant navigational charts are essential for safe maritime navigation. Navigational charts must be kept up-to-date, especially in high-volume shipping routes. Maintaining accurate charts presents a problem as coastlines can change significantly faster than chart update cycles. PCI Geomatics is helping overcome this challenge through the Coastal Mapping approach based on Coastchart.
Solution:

PCI Geomatics, based on the CoastChart program, is helping design, develop and implement an earth observation solution system to provide accurate, up-to-date, coastal information products. Satellite imagery, tidal data and existing charts are being used to determine up-to-date coastline locations and produce new coastline information products at various scales.
