A Screaming Fast Solution for Geographic Imaging


Atlanta, Georgia, July 9, 2001. Cantrio Systems, a server appliance company affiliated with VistaScape Technology Corp, announces the GEO-2206 Server Appliance as an ideal solution for the high-speed, large storage capacity requirements of the Geographical Information Systems and Remote Sensing (GIS/RS) markets. The Cantrio GEO-2206 has the ability to transform, distribute and store large geographic images five times faster than current solutions.

The Cantrio GEO-2206 revolutionary design represents a departure from traditional server architectures by embedding applications and enabling tools. According to William Donges, Cantrio's President, "We see this as an exciting combination of technology that will solve bottleneck and distribution problems such as those experienced in the GIS/RS marketplaces."

Cantrio has partnered with Axion Spatial Imaging, Ltd. in embedding Axion's state-of-the-art image decompression capability on the Geo-2206 server appliance. Milton Lemke, COO of Axion noted that "The combination of Cantrio's extremely rapid processing capability in the Geo-2206 with our revolutionary decompression software means that our clients can now experience a true image server that creates and serves massive images on request, supporting hundreds of users online and, at the same time, seamlessly tiling imagery on the fly." Axion will also be a distributor of the GEO-2206 Server Appliance.

By sustaining full duplex transfer at gigabit rates in a parallel processing environment, the GEO-2206 Server Appliance transmits bandwidth intensive geographic images rapidly. In addition, the onboard high-capacity storage of compressed images means faster access to stored data. This means multiple users can create and extract mosaics on the fly faster and more efficiently with greater access and speed of delivery. It supports commonly used third party applications and integrates easily into existing systems. The GEO-2206 Server Appliance will be demonstrated at the ESRI User Conference in San Diego, California.

Cantrio Systems is an affiliate of VistaScape Technology Corp. and is based in Atlanta, Georgia. VistaScape Technology Corp. assesses the market viability of new technologies and provides leadership in the start up phase for new companies.
