Leica Geosystems Partners with INOVx

Leica Geosystems HDS and INOVx announced at the SPAR 2010 conference and at the ARC World Industry Forum a partnership to jointly develop advanced software for converting laser scan data into intelligent plant models. Integrated products will be based on Leica Cyclone software and INOVx RealityLINx software. Availability of first integrated products is planned for the second quarter 2010.

“We’re very excited about this partnership,” states Juergen Dold, President, Leica Geosystems Geospatial Solutions Division. “We see continued strong demand for our CAD plug-in solutions and our standalone plant modeling solutions. INOVx is a great partner for making plant models intelligent for Operations & Maintenance with seamless exchange to plant design software. Our integrated solutions will provide significant accuracy, efficiency, and open systems benefits.”

“Partnering with Leica Geosystems, the industry leader in laser scanning, is a great fit for expanding and enhancing our software product offerings and our reach into the global market. Further improvements to the creation of intelligent models from as-built geometry based on laser scanning will support our Asset Virtualization solutions by sustaining virtual models that accurately reflect plant changes and thus maximize value to our customers,” says Costantino Lanza, CEO of INOVx.

“INOVx’s process plant know-how combined with Leica Geosystems’ scanning technology and worldwide reach will drive asset owner/operator efficiency, safety and regulatory compliance initiatives to new levels,” Tom Greaves, Managing Director, Spar Point Group.

“The integration of Leica Geosystems’ point cloud management software with INOVx’s object modeling and information software provides improved capability and workflow with faster time to benefit” comments Ralph Rio, Research Director, ARC Advisory Group. Mr. Rio continues, “This combination enables increased use of 3D laser scanning technologies for improved plant maintenance.”
