Leica Image Manager from Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging

Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging today released Leica Image Manager, an innovative new solution for efficiently storing and quickly sharing imagery throughout the enterprise.

This dynamic solution comprehensively addresses problems universal to many geospatial data providers and those in the public sector and civil engineering, oil, gas and land management industries. These businesses often work with geospatial data too large to be centrally stored, or rapidly shared.

Leica Image Manager is a comprehensive, Open Geospatial Consortium and International Organization for Standardization (OGC/ISO) compliant solution that solves business problems associated with securely discovering, describing, cataloging and serving imagery to a variety of web and rich client applications throughout an organization. Providing true interoperability, Leica Image Manager seamlessly connects to numerous geoweb applications and geospatial solutions, including ERDAS IMAGINE®, Leica Photogrammetry Suite (LPS) and ArcGIS desktop products.

“When your data includes imagery, implementing a business system that securely manages and rapidly delivers your imagery to users across an organization is critical to fully realizing the potential of your geospatial data investments,” said Mladen Stojic, Senior Vice President, Product Management and Marketing, Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging. “Implementing new technology, Leica Image Manager compliments our growing portfolio of solutions that bring geospatial intelligence to everyday business needs.”

Leica Image Manager is flexible, while ensuring a high level of security through administrator defined privileges. With Leica Image Manager, users may develop vertical market applications using an extensible web and rich client application framework. Implementing OGC standards (WMS, WCS and CS-W) and the ECW-P protocol, Leica Image Manager provides rapid delivery of unprecedented volumes of imagery to domain specific desktop and consumer web client applications. Leica Image Manager also leverages existing business systems, such as the Oracle database for persisting intelligent metadata and application specific information. Additionally, with Leica Geosystems’ RedSpider Enterprise and Image Integration Framework products, Leica Image Manager may be extended with tools to build geoweb applications that directly consume data and OGC web services from a variety of sources.
