Asset Visualisation and Information System (AVIS) Plug-in Development

Tender description

Why the Work is Being Done Mainly, Avis Plug in development is to give user increased functionality and continued ability to visualise the Highways England Strategic Road Network (SRN) from safety of the office. Users currently access high definition imagery data captured from vehicle surveys, providing camera views along the SRN. Inventory is stored in system and displayed on map interface alongside Ordnance Survey data and can be queried using data tools. LiDAR captured is also loaded into AVIS, visualisation presented through 3D viewer, where a user can load a 3D model at any location. AVIS -3rd year of use with over 600 registered/fully trained users. Problem to Be Solved • Interfacing to the incident management system enabling images to be displayed based on a location. • Interfacing to other asset inventory systems, enabling information to be updated within AVIS, and saved back to the inventory systems • Increase functionality of the Imaging interface to include image adjustment controls, annotation and enable the export of images as video • Increase functionality of the map viewer to include measurements, allowing a selection of imagery and assets on a large scale to be taken • Allow additional mapping layers, e.g. ordnance survey, standard gazetteers, etc • Ensuring compatibility with Users Operating Environment.
