The ability to access 3D models of real-world environments and receive real-time reports on infrastructure and assets enables Fugro customers, especially in emergency services, to assess the damage and act accordingly. They use this information to identify specific areas of need and work to get those communities back up and running after events like natural disasters.

Fugro’s existing process for uploading data to the Roames platform involved transporting disk images by courier, from its global aircraft sites to a third-party data center in Sydney. They were then “plugged in” by a third-party contractor, specially brought in to complete the ingest process. From here, the images were rendered on the Roames platform in the AWS cloud, and Fugro customers gained access to visualization and reporting capabilities.

Fugro’s main objective was to optimize its data ingestion and processing activities by creating a more agile, dynamic, and controlled procedure to obtain mission-critical data on the Roames platform. The company wanted to ensure it had optimal control over how its customer data was processed, along with the ability to eliminate any potential problems on time, reduce the risk of double manipulation, and easily maintain equipment. Operational convenience was also a top priority for Fugro, whose team of specialists wanted to ensure a streamlined and seamless process from start to finish.
