Hexagon’s Vision 2045 film examines the critical role of accurate measurement and visualisation in monitoring biodiversity in Costa Rica. By measuring within a three-centimetre accuracy level, digital twin technology is being used to quantify the true impact of conservation and reforestation efforts in the region.
“Hexagon's precision sensor and AI-enabled software technology allow us to create digital twins of almost anything — from the smallest objects to entire ecosystems like the COBIGA corridor in Costa Rica," said Burkhard Boeckem, CTO, Hexagon. "For our customers, digital twins enable data-driven decision-making, which can lead to more efficient and sustainable operations.”
In partnership with La Gamba Tropenstation, an Austrian research station associated with the University of Vienna, Hexagon is co-creating a digital twin of the rainforest, which is crucial for measuring the biodiversity of this ecosystem. The approach combines technology and science to generate a digital twin of the forest, leveraging Hexagon's state-of-the-art airborne hybrid image and LiDAR sensors and ground-based reality capture technology to measure and visualise the rainforest, creating the world's first Green Cubes initiative.
Green Cubes is a transformative project orchestrated by Hexagon's green-tech investment team, R-evolution, in support of the COBIGA corridor. Green Cubes provides companies with the opportunity to sponsor a cubic metre, or 'Green Cube' of the La Gamba biological corridor, a conservation project to champion biodiversity in Costa Rica.
Through the Green Cubes initiative, Hexagon is developing a blueprint to help accelerate biodiversity conservation and sustainable business practices – in the rainforest and across the globe.
