Products used

The client : Sogitec

Sogitec Industries is a subsidiary of Dassault Aviation, a leading company in the aerospace industry that provides support products and services for aerospace systems. Sogitec is a prominent player in the simulation and training products and services market, specializing in flight simulation for the Defense industry.

The company’s mission is to support aircraft and crews by leveraging new technologies, and their strategy is to be a world leader in flight simulation for Defense actors. This is achieved through their skilled and experienced team of engineers, high customer satisfaction, and a wide range of networked simulation products.

The Challenge : The Need of a Highly Realistic Experience in Flight Simulation

Sogitec faced the challenge of upgrading their visual database for their flight simulators to maintain their high standards of simulation and training in the Defense industry.

Sogitec’s high standards of simulation and training include aspects such as accuracy, realism, and effectiveness. As a leader in the flight simulation and training market, they use cutting-edge technology and techniques to provide a highly immersive and realistic experience for their clients.

This could involve replicating real-world scenarios and environments, providing in-depth training for aircraft and crew, and continually updating and upgrading their systems to stay ahead of the competition.

Maintaining high standards of simulation and training is crucial for Sogitec. As a leader in the industry, including the Defense sector, the company needs to provide the highest quality solutions. Failure to upgrade to more accurate and reliable data may result in clients seeking better, more up-to-date alternatives.

The Solution : A Reliable and Corrected 3D World Based on Geospatial Data

Sogitec approached our geospatial data company, PlanetObserver, for PlanetSAT global 2D imagery basemap and PlanetDEM global 3D elevation dataset. Our collaboration with Sogitec has been successful for 15 years.

Sogitec chose our geospatial data due to the high visual quality of the imagery, the reliability of the PlanetDEM elevation data, and the perfect combination of both products to produce synthetic environments. The license flexibility of our products was also a contributing factor to their decision. Our company supported Sogitec by listening to their needs and taking into account their timeline. Our prompt deliveries in accordance with the client’s projects helped us in meeting their demands.
