President’s Message

Many industries and companies describe 2020 as a “lost” year. We definitely do not! Though this year has dramatic humanitarian and economic challenges affecting us all, requiring a lot of flexibility and adaptability, we also see countless impressive success stories from our customers.

Throughout our long history, we have overcome many external market changes and technology changes, all while keeping a high pace of innovation. Customers are the focus, and we strive to never let them down. I have been able to participate in various leadership positions during the past 17 years, and now, as president of Hexagon’s Geosystems division, I present you my first Reporter President’s Message with a dedicated focus on the digitalisation boost, which industries are experiencing right now.

很长一段时间以来，现在得到了加强，我们正在行业内经历数字加速。公司正在使用数字化来自动化任务，并迅速将所有相关的利益相关者聚集在生态系统中，从而导致自动解决方案。令人印象深刻的是，客户如何使用我们的解决方案将其业务模式数字化。在此版本的记者中，我们提出了留下传统道路并成功踏上新方法以增强其竞争优势的公司。

Surveying methods enable digitalisation of real estate. Hollis, a leading firm of independent real estate consultants in the U.K., use Leica Geosystems 3D laser scanners and software to digitalise commercial and residential properties. The reality capture experts now manage vast amounts of digital data making it accessible across the company so CAD work can begin sooner. With point cloud registration times minimised, the firm delivers final scans to clients quicker and more cost-effectively.

构建施工受益于简化的工作流程和与客户更快的互动。德国的脚手架提供商Kolb GmbH已将其与Leica BLK3D实时3D测量解决方案进行了现代化的咨询工作流。该公司在手持设备上进行了自动测量，将其在网站上的时间减少了80％以上。通过将现场数据连接到办公室的技术人员，该公司现在可以提供快速报价。

重型建筑历史上一直是一个数字ly underserved industry. Al Nisr, a world leader in the construction of airfields and supporting infrastructure in the UAE, turned to Leica iCON 3D machine control solutions to create digital construction sites that connected all project stakeholders. Moving to stringless paving, the company automated stakeout procedures while tripling its capacity length in paving airstrips and cutting project times in half.

智慧HxGN内容项目支持自动化任务h maturing technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI). These technologies, though, rely on consistent information to feed and train algorithms. With imagery being collected on a regular schedule and providing normalised datasets, the HxGN Content Program enables advanced analytics and automatic updates of location-based information. Updates are then performed efficiently, leading to automation of tasks like change detection.

The digitalisation journey is gaining speed and the momentum of the “next normal” will accelerate the convergence of real and digital worlds into autonomous solutions, providing and creating business opportunities. At Geosystems, experiencing the digitalisation boost ourselves, we will continue to strengthen our customers with innovative sensor and software solutions to lead by example and demonstrate what can be done. Join us in co-creating an autonomous future.

Have an interesting and enjoyable read.
