Sensors to Services:
Driving Productivity and Market Economy

Reality Capture Spatial Computing Workflows Integration Digital Twin Enterprise Business Models Productive Economy

Geospatial industry is transforming and growing manifold, driven by technology innovations and collaborative value chain across the ever evolving and expanding geospatial ecosystem. While technology landscape is going through disruption, and could be called as transition, it has positively impacted geospatial industry and has powered to position as industry offering geospatial enterprise solutions and services, instead of several different types of capabilities. An exciting trend that is gaining momentum is growing collaboration and convergence within and outside geospatial ecosystem through partnership, collaborations, or acquisitions, motivated by well-meaning intent of delivering solutions and services, ultimately enhancing productivity, and expanding market economy.

It all simply begins with innovation in sensors offering better, diverse, faster, accurate information at affordable cost across space, aerial, terrestrial, sub-surface and even under water platforms. Phenomenon of reality capture is made not 360-degree view of real things, but data integration and fusion of different sensor platforms through Quantum AI has made it ‘real-time’ too.

Spatial Computing has further enhanced the holistic value of reality capture by adding processing and analytical capabilities and made it possible to be integrated with workflow models at enterprise levels across almost every user sector be it infrastructure, energy, agriculture, transportation, mobility, climate resilience, government, business intelligence, national security, or industrial facilities. Digital Twin Enterprise comprises of real view of business workflows and assets and its real time contextual value from hundreds of mobile and installed sensors capturing, processing, analyzing, and creating digital twin enterprise or we can also call it as reality digital platforms.

Digital Twin Enterprise also means integration and convergence of hardware, software, data platforms, and workflows, which subsequently leads towards system integration and solutions. And as several companies would be required to collaborate to produce enterprise solutions, so as scalability of delivery of services to larger set of professional and/or consumer users within an organization or its stakeholders’ network. Extending and refining value chain further, business models have been revamped and value-based cost pricing and profit-sharing models have been the new norm, creating a whole new opportunity for B2B platforms wherein large corporations become front end of solutions and services wherein host of companies are contributing their respective tools, knowledge, expertise, market outreach and credibility.

Collaborative business models are practically the only way forward towards expanding market outreach and augmenting profitability. Inter-dependence of system integration, productivity models, scalability of services determines profitability of one and all in the value chain of Sensors to Services.
