Online ETL tool

Information is indispensable for good decision making in our knowledge-intensive society. Digital exchange of geo spatial data is efficient for governments and companies and leads to new possibilities. We believe that big data can help in providing the right geo spatial data at the right moment to excavation workers onsite

With this ETL Tool from BlindGuide you can automatically convert geospatial data. This online tool is available 24/7 and converts geospatial data with different file formats into one format that can be used in the Augmented Reality app from BlindGuide.

Various formats

At this moment the ETL tool can be used for merging the existing Dutch KLIC data with geospatial data from Autocad drawings (.DWG and .DXF) such as data from our Ground Pentrating Radar;

On our roadmap we also included adding the following geospatial data:

• WWII explosive chart, suspicious area;
• Soil quality;
• Satellite data such as soil austerity;

By clever use of BlindGuide’s ETL tool, we are now able to improve the KLIC and show the exact location of intersecting pipes and objetcs in the BlindGuide KLIC App to the excavation team.

The end result is:

• More and better information on the job;
• Fewer and more targeted test trenches;
• Less excavation damage.

Step 3: Download

When the conversion is ready and aproved by you, you can pay with your credits. After the payment you will receive a download link from us on the screen and in your email inbox. When you place this data on your smartphone or tablet (android) or open the link directly on your iPhone or iPad with the BlindGuide app you can view the project data in Augmented Reality.
