1 GEOSPATIAL ERDAS APOLLO Your Geospatial Business System for Managing and Serving Information

2

3 ERDAS APOLLO Do you have large volumes of data, a geographicallydistributed user base and rapidly changing data holdings? Do you need a single, integrated enterprise-class, spatial data infrastructure? If you are delivering imagery, is the performance fast enough for you? ERDAS APOLLO is a comprehensive data management, analysis and delivery system. It enables an organization to organize and deliver massive volumes of both file-based and web-enabled data, including imagery, feature data, terrain and virtually any digital object in the enterprise. ERDAS APOLLO consistently delivers geospatial data faster and with less hardware than competing server-based products. An interoperable OGC/ISO-based application that implements an out-of-the-box service-oriented architecture (SOA), ERDAS APOLLO can be customized and extended to satisfy both your geospatial and business process requirements. 3

4 4 ERDAS APOLLO Essential - SDI provides a Data Manager RCP client to remotely setup and manage your OGC web services and custom catalog objects.. ON-DEMAND GEOPROCESSING ERDAS APOLLO contains the most interoperable geoprocessing services in the industry. Users can run an entire model (such as change detection), completely contained within a single Web Processing Service (WPS). The complexity of the algorithm stored under a single process is unique, enabling an end-user to create on-demand line of sight, elevation change, image change detection and more. Spatial models created in ERDAS IMAGINE are published to ERDAS APOLLO and then delivered over the internet. FASTEST IMAGE DELIVERY POSSIBLE ERDAS APOLLO includes the fastest image delivery system on the market, with the highperformance streaming imagery protocol ECWP. ECWP allows you to serve over 5,000 clients with just one server! If you prefer to distribute your data in a tiled fashion, you can use Optimized Tile Delivery. In comparison benchmarks, ERDAS APOLLO consistently delivers more data, quicker, using less hardware than other image serving products. ERDAS APOLLO supports common industry standards for image deployment, including ESRI s ArcIMS, ArcXML and OpenGIS Web Map service specifications. COMPLETELY INTEROPERABLE ERDAS APOLLO embraces OGC services, making them a native implementation. When we say we support the specification, we support the entire standard. It is the primary use case for accessing data, not the secondary. ERDAS APOLLO implements comprehensive Web Mapping Service (WMS), Web Coverage Service (WCS), Catalog Service for the Web (CS-W), Web Feature Service (WFS), Web Map Context (WMC), Web Processing Service (WPS) and ISO 19115/19139 metadata standards.

6 SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATES ERDAS APOLLO seamlessly integrates with GIS environments. In addition, ERDAS APOLLO leverages existing business systems, such as the Oracle database for persisting intelligent metadata and application specific information. Proven IT standards such as JavaEE and REST integrate ERDAS APOLLO into existing business environments, also meeting an organization s security requirements. In ERDAS APOLLO, almost any kind of data input is supported (including ArcSDE & Oracle). Legacy and thirdparty data may also be used together in a single environment. ERDAS APOLLO simplifies the complexity of geospatial data, easily managing and distributing this information to a large audience. Many software applications support ECWP, our high-speed streaming imagery protocol, including MapInfo and Bentley Microstation. Where an application does not support ECWP out-of-the-box, we provide free plug-ins. For example, we have very popular free plug-ins for ArcGIS and AutoCAD. Find, filter, export and edit vector data through the ERDAS APOLLO Web Client. SECURELY COLLABORATE AND SHARE DATA The permission-based data distribution system in ERDAS APOLLO enables users to easily make their geospatial data available to others while retaining digital ownership rights. ERDAS APOLLO is both a static data management solution and a means to securely share desktop datasets that are routinely modified or created. Users in a network can create sharable data and content mashups, all within a 3D virtual globe. 6

7 FLEXIBLE OFFERING Available in three product tiers, ERDAS APOLLO suits a wide spectrum of organizations from those that simply need a very low-cost, remarkably fast image server to those requiring a comprehensive data management system. All three tiers offer remarkably fast performance, even when handling massive data archives and many users. Serving a 5TB image over the internet is not a problem for ERDAS APOLLO-Image Web Server. Vectors are served with lightning speed with ERDAS APOLLO-Image Web Server. 7

8 ERDAS APOLLO Essentials SDI For organizations that require interoperable cataloging and delivery of imagery, terrain and vector data through OGC Web Services to any client application, ERDAS APOLLO Essentials SDI is appropriate. This offering provides an entry-level, best-of-breed enterprise solution to quickly implement an OGC standard Spatial Data Infrastructure meeting cataloging (CS-W) and dissemination (WFS, WCS, WMS, WMC) requirements. ERDAS APOLLO Essentials Image Web Server Government organizations with geospatial data that needs to be shared via a public access website can easily do this with ERDAS APOLLO Essentials Image Web Server. This unique, low-cost product provides high-speed access to large volumes of imagery on a minimum hardware set. Image Web Server requires very little server administration, leveraging the unmatched power of ECWP and Optimized Tile Delivery to ensure images are delivered very quickly. Broadcast one search query across multiple ERDAS APOLLO Catalogs and ERDAS APOLLO Collaboration networks, and visualize results in the ERDAS TITAN Viewer 3D globe. ERDAS APOLLO Advantage Organizations that need to manage massive amounts of geospatial data need ERDAS APOLLO Advantage. The data may be redundant and distributed across multiple departments or offices. Often, this data needs to be rapidly delivered to users based on their role and permissions in the enterprise. 8

9 APOLLO Professional supports server-side geoprocessing. Previously published and cataloged spatial models are accessible and executable by users on demand from 2D and 3D clients. The APOLLO Web Client allows users to search, browse, discover, style, visualize and download imagery and vector data. Imagery geoprocessing and vector data editing are also available to complete these workflows. 9

10 Organizations may be spending a lot of money on hardware, but users still cannot find what they need. Organizations that benefit from ERDAS APOLLO Advantage include national mapping agencies and large federal organizations, police forces, Defense, DOT/infrastructure, surveillance, disaster/emergency response and homeland security. ERDAS APOLLO Advantage can deliver the raw data as well as a single, homogenous dataset without creating multiple service layers (supporting the same data types as ERDAS IMAGINE ). ERDAS APOLLO Advantage provides automated data and metadata harvesting, crawling, indexing and schedulers, with a secured hierarchical data model. ERDAS APOLLO Advantage also includes desktop data sharing and collaboration, allowing users to publish their data, specifying permissions. Using a 3D virtual globe, users create sharable data and content mashups with each other. Users can also search, discover and visualize data in a variety of applications. New geometry tool for searching and filtering. ERDAS APOLLO Professional For users that need to manage data, as well as perform on-demand spatial analysis to extract information, ERDAS APOLLO Professional is appropriate. ERDAS APOLLO Professional offers a powerful geoprocessing (WPS) component, unrivaled in complex algorithms. ERDAS APOLLO Professional enables server-side geoprocessing of geospatial data contained within a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI). This end-to-end workflow is designed so that end-users executing geoprocesses may do so with very little domain knowledge. 10

11 The workflow begins with ERDAS IMAGINE, which provides a rich environment for creating new and complex spatial models. Using ERDAS IMAGINE, geospatial analysts create custom models and publish them to the APOLLO catalog. Security credentials are managed by APOLLO administrators who make cataloged spatial models accessible to users per role. Published and cataloged spatial models are then accessible and executable by consumer users, on demand, from 2D and 3D clients like the ERDAS APOLLO Web Client, and the ERDAS TITAN Viewer 3D virtual globe. In this scenario users are working from one collective data pool, extending the utilization of geospatial information to others in an organization. Search ERDAS APOLLO to discover raster, vector and KML data. Visualize in the TITAN Viewer 3D globe. 11
