Both the Municipality of Chania and the Municipality of Piraeus, with the aim of improving the efficiency of their services and better serving the citizen, are investing in the creation of the necessary digital infrastructure by enriching their geospatial data with updated cartographic 3D maps, and by enhancing the functionality of their existing geospatial infrastructures, choosing the “State of the Art Topographic 3D Background – GET Data” solution offered by GET in our portfolio for Smart Cities.

The project for the Municipality of Chania is implemented under the framework of the project “Configuration of a Control Center and strengthening of critical infrastructures to deal with risks in the Municipality of Chania” financed by the ANTONIS TRITSIS program call “AT08 Smart Cities”.

The implementation of SECTION B: “Enrichment of geospatial data infrastructure (3D models of road network and other infrastructures)” of the project, which was awarded to the association of GET and ASTROLABOS TECHNIKI, includes the creation of the new 3D Models of the road network and other infrastructures of the Municipality of Chania, as well as their integration in the municipality’s existing Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI).

Upon completion of the project, 400 km of urban – peri-urban – rural roads and 10 km of sidewalks three-dimensional cartographic background of high-precision, will be available to the Municipality’s services, professionals and citizens through the existing SDI of the Municipality of Chania.

The project for the Municipality of Piraeus is self-financed and includes, among other things, capturing part of the Municipality’s road network through 360° panoramic imagery.

With this solution, the levels of data (information) required for a clear understanding of the elements that make up the city will be collected. With the aforementioned services it will be possible to virtually navigate the city, inspect and evaluate locations without a physical presence. In addition, there will be the possibility of extracting measurements using the panoramic photos.
