Project Overview

  • GE Aviation now has access to ultra-high

resolution satellite imagery.

  • They see a need to be able to easily display

and view these images using an iPad device.

Functional Specifications

  • An iPad app which allows the viewing of an

ultra-high resolution image and allows the user to:

  • Select the image to view
  • Pan, zoom, and rotate the image
  • Display the coordinates of a particular point the

user touches on the image

Design Specifications

  • The iPad app should be fast in the displaying of

these ultra-high resolution images and remain responsive.

  • It will utilize familiar touch-screen gestures

such as sliding one finger to pan, pinch to zoom, and using two fingers to rotate the image.

Technical Specifications

  • Our project will consist of two main parts:
  • An iPad app for the displaying of these ultra-high

resolution images to the user

  • A backend application which will process the rather

large GeoTIFF files into a format more manageable for the iPad app

Testing

  • Since performance is our primary concern with

the iPad app, we plan to regularly test the performance of the app while developing.

  • We also plan to incorporate some usability

testing in order to meet the requirement that the app be easy to use.

Risks

  • iOS Platform
  • Our team has very little prior experience with the

iOS platform.

  • We plan to spend time early on to ramp up to

developing for the iOS platform.

  • ESRI GeoTIFF image specification
  • We are also unfamiliar with the GeoTIFF image

format.

  • We plan to spend time early on researching the

GeoTIFF format.

Risks

  • Handling of very large image files
  • The images our app will be using will be around 1-4

GB in size, but the iPad 2 only has 512 MB of memory.

  • We will be investigating different techniques for

handling and displaying these large images including the CATiledLayer class that last year’s team used.
