TRANSFORMING ASSET MANAGEMENT WITH GRAPH DATABASES

Our research, “Unleashing the Potential of Graph Database in Smart Asset Management: Enhancing Predictive Maintenance in Industry 4.0” explores into how graph databases can revolutionize predictive maintenance for smarter asset management.

In the era of Industry 4.0, managing massive amounts of data from various sources is a challenge. Our study highlights how graph databases, with their flexibility and scalability, can handle this complexity, making data more accessible and useful for predictive maintenance.

We explore the use of graph databases to store and analyze asset information, showcasing their ability to handle complex relationships and vast data volumes. This approach enhances predictive maintenance by providing more accurate and timely insights.

By integrating advanced technologies like big data, IoT, and AI, we pave the way for smarter, more efficient asset management. Our research demonstrates the potential of graph databases to support the dynamic needs of modern industries.

TRANSFORMING URBAN PLANNING WITH 3D TECH!

We’re pumped to share our latest research, “Analyzing Urban Spatial Distribution in 2D and 3D for Smart City Planning and Zoning,” published in Advances in Geoinformatics Technologies! This study tackles the exciting challenge of making our cities smarter and more efficient.

Cities are getting more complex with high-rise buildings, underground utilities, and diverse land uses. We used both 2D and 3D models to get a clearer picture of urban development, making it easier to plan and zone effectively.

We employed nearest-neighbor analysis to uncover spatial patterns and clustering. Our findings show that 3D models provide way more detail and accuracy than traditional 2D models, revolutionizing how we visualize and plan urban spaces.

This game-changing approach helps urban planners make smarter decisions for sustainable growth. By integrating advanced geospatial techniques, we’re paving the way for resilient, future-ready cities.

REVOLUTIONIZING URBAN GREEN SPACES WITH NOSQL DATABASES

Our research, “Managing Green Cover in Urban Area Using NoSQL Database,” published in the Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation series! This game-changing study tackles the big challenge of keeping our urban green spaces thriving in fast-growing cities.

Green cover like grass, shrubs, and trees is key to making cities cooler and more livable. We used LiDAR tech to capture amazing 3D point cloud data of these urban green spaces.

We sorted green cover into grass, shrubs, trees, and ground categories. Using NoSQL databases, we managed this huge amount of data effortlessly.

NoSQL databases outperformed traditional ones in handling and querying large datasets. This smart organization helps urban planners make better decisions.

We could easily get sustainability values and other important metrics from the data. Mixing cutting-edge data tech with environmental science, our work can boost urban sustainability big time.

3D TREE MODELLING FOR LESS NOISE

Announcing our latest publication, “Improving Traffic-noise-mitigation Strategies with LiDAR-based 3D Tree-canopy Analysis,” in Geomatics and Environmental Engineering journal (Vol. 18, No. 3, 2024)! This groundbreaking study explores how trees can be our green heroes, reducing traffic noise naturally.

Our team used cutting-edge LiDAR technology to create 3D models of tree canopies. We analyzed how trees’ leaves and structures absorb traffic noise.

We developed a new equation to measure noise reduction, integrating it with existing models. Our findings show that trees can reduce traffic noise by 1 to 3 dB(A).

LiDAR-based 3D visualizations provide accurate data for better urban planning. Tree belts and dense planting schemes are particularly effective in noise mitigation.

Our discoveries pave the way for greener, quieter urban spaces. Imagine strolling down a city street with less noise and more peace—thanks to thoughtful tree planting!

The full study here: https://doi.org/10.7494/geom.2024.18.3.81. 

Join us in celebrating the power of nature and technology to improve urban living. Let’s make our cities not just smarter, but also greener and more serene!
