GIS Trends you need know that will mark 2022

By 2022the upward trend that has beenaccompanyingthe marketfor yearsis expectedto continue Geographic Information Systems(GIS) . If we stop to analyze figures,Verified MarketResearchestimates thatby 2027,it will have a size of 15.10 billion dollars. This assumesa compound annual growth rate of 10.35% in the period 2020–2027.
Now that we knowthe successful future that awaits geolocated information and the technologies and solutions that are based on it, it is time to learn about the main trends that will revolve around these during the next 12 months, and surely some more. They are as follows:
Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and 3D GIS
The GIS have gone from the classic two-dimensional plane to bring us even closer to the reality of the territory. In this way, through a screen or with Virtual Reality glasses, we can get a much more approximate idea of the characteristics of a specific environment. All this can be achieved from capture using techniques such as LiDAR , photogrammetric modeling from aerial photographs, SLAM or Mobile Mapping .
The proliferation of sensors of all kinds, GPS positioning devices, smartphones and the advancement of technologies such as IoT , Big Data and Cloud Computing contribute to the fact that maps and GIS contain dynamic elements capable of representing variables in real time.
Raster data is a classic of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). These are those that are represented by a matrix of squared cells, whether they are values of temperature, altitude, demographics, aerial photographs, etc.
The boom in Artificial Intelligence is not unrelated to the quality of this technology of adapting to work with geodata. Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms allow systems to learn by themselves as they receive more and more information.
The GIS are notonly usable for the study of outdoor and open environments. Indoor maps and the technology that supports them (Indoor Mapping) will be concepts that should be focused on in 2022.
We can simplify by stating that with BIM we intend to achieve a digital twin of the project. Among the BIM Coordination own data, more and more efforts are being made to integrate into them those of the Geographic Information Systems or GIS.
More established data culture
As influential as technological advances, cultural advances must be intended to root in society the idea that GIS data has enormous potential for its general evolution.
Many analysts have identified the main drivers of the GIS market for the coming years. All agree onthe leading role of the ability to integrate these solutions with technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (Artificial Geo Intelligence ) and 3D BIM modeling, among others.
They also highlight the influence of the increase in projects in various countries. For example, increased investments by government agencies in USA, France and Germany todevelop urban infrastructures and monitor changes in the territory. Of course, the role that geographic data has played in managing the pandemic also remains latent.
