RE:RE:RE:RE:Intermap to Compete for DOD Dollars?
Intermap has demonstrated that it can build underground 3D maps with their technology by fusing data from multiple souces. Intermap was mentioned in the news multiple times for doing that for the Thai Cave Rescue. The previous member recently posted supporting evidence for his comment. Here is the information from his post once again. "DARPA seeks underground mapping capability Subterranean mapping made global news recently with the perilous rescue of 12 Thai boys and their soccer coach from a flooded underground cave. The Thai navy SEAL divers who rescued the group were aided by a 3D map of the cave made by geo-technology firm Intermap Technologies, which was based on satellite, elevation and hydrology data crunched together using artificial intelligence. The Defense Department's research arm is getting interested in what geo-technology can do to map subterranean space. In September, researchers from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency will convene a competitor's day in the Louisville Mega Cavern, a 100-acre manmade limestone cave underneath a portion of the city's southern section that currently houses commercial storage facilities and public recreation businesses such as underground zip lines and electric bike and tram tours. The cavern was an underground crushed limestone quarry from the 1930s to the 1970s before being converted to current uses in the late 1980s" https://fcw.com/articles/2018/07/24/darpa-underground-mapping.aspx?m=1
