AEGIS
Our Airport Digital Twin solution leverages x-Spatial's Airport Enterprise Geospatial Information System (AEGIS) as the "common denominator" component, providing the spatial skeleton supporting the correlation of various airport data.
AEGIS includes an airport specific spatial Database Management System (DBMS), integrating both Autodesk and Esri data structures and functionality. The AEGIS DBMS se
Airport DIgital Twin Enabling Capabilities
Spatial Integration Platform
The x-Spatial AEGIS backbone of our Airport Digital Twin solution, leverages stat-of-the-art technologies from Autodesk, Esri, Trimble, SOLV3D, Oracle, and Microsoft to integrate BIM, CAD, GIS, and LiDAR with draped imagery.
Integrating BIM deliverables
AEGIS enables the best of both worlds -- Autodesk and Esri. It integrates Autodesk Revit BIM models, delivered for airport AEC projects, with our overall digital twin solution spanning the entire airport campus. AEGIS enables data edits from both AutoCAD and ArcGIS Pro. It also serves spatial data for analysis to both Autodesk and Esri tools and applications.
Integrating Multi-Dimensional Data
The x-Spatial AEGIS platform allows integration of mutli-dimensional data types, including 2D and 3D interconnected facility views, with embedded asset attribute data, as well as asset documentation.
Integrating Business Analytics Spatially
Airport Business Intelligence (BI) requires correlation of various disparate analytics data. The most effective means for correlating multiple such datasets for airport use cases is via spatial dashboarding. x-Spatial leverages the power of Esri's ArcGIS spatial analytics, as shown in this example involving lease management data.
Integrated Signage Data
The AEGIS system supports integration of various types of airport signage data spanning the airfield per FAA requirements, terminal indoor signage, and outdoor signage covering the remaining airport campus including roadways, wayfinding, buildings, etc.
Integrated Pavement Condition Data
AEGIS includes airport pavement management functionality for both airfield and roadways/parking pavements, supporting pavement condition assessments and budget prioritization for pavement rehab. AEGIS is able to integrate pavement data from various sources into a single spatial DBMS.
Integrated Utilities Data
AEGIS leverages ANSI's rich Spatial Data Standards for Facilities Infrastructure and Environment (SDSFIE), which include extensive utilities data structure in support of airport's dense utilities networks. This enables our Airport Digital Twin to significantly reduce change orders during construction and improve recovery of utility usage costs through more effective tenant sub-metering.
Integrated Life-Safety and Security Data
AEGIS enables the Airport Digital Twin support emergency management and situational awareness use cases involving life safety and security assets such as dispatch points, CCTV cameras, alarms, other sensors, AEDs, etc.
Integrated Floor Plans & Indoor Assets
The x-Spatial AEGIS suite of tools include automation mechanisms facilitating updates of terminal floor plans and indoor assets, which change often due to tenant modifications, facilities/IT modifications, capital improvement projects, etc. Updated floor plans are key to various Airport Digital Twin use cases.
Integrated Electrical Schematics
Airport terminals are some of the most complex facilities in the world, involving numerous interconnected electrical panels, which are challenging to keep track of, especially with on-going facility modifications. Response time to electrical outages must be minimized. AEGIS enables our Airport Digital Twin to support configuration management of electrical panels.
