Smartronix uses Express Suite in Air Force solution
January 19th, 2009 by Matt FleagleLast year we helped solutions provider Smartronix address some image delivery pains that their customer, the Air Force Special Operations Command, was experiencing. The AFSOC need to process huge amounts of satellite and aerial imagery quickly, store it efficiently, and access it instantly in common geospatial applications and viewers. In particular, they wanted to store terabytes of raw imagery in an Oracle database and view it via both MapViewer and ArcIMS.
Smartronix asked if we could make that happen. We said “Yes we can.”
We’re pretty excited about this “win” because it’s a high profile example of an Express Suite workflow. Express Suite comprises all three of LizardTech’s major geospatial software products, GeoExpress for image manipulation and compression to industry standard formats, Spatial Express for storing compressed images in an Oracle database, and Express Server for serving out those images via the fastest and most stable delivery technology available.
We worked hard to make all three products interoperate seamlessly with each other and with common GIS software, so it’s great to see the trio succeed on the road.
