DataDEV in Motion: Highlights from Our May 2025 Conferences
May was a month of action for the DataDEV team. We participated in two major industry events: the 22nd International 3D-Forum Lindau and the 29th International Exhibition for Track Technology (iaf) in Münster. Both conferences gave us the chance to present our technology, connect with industry leaders, and gain fresh perspectives on the future of geospatial and rail infrastructure.
3D Forum Lindau
Held on May 13 – 14, the 3D Forum Lindau focused on how AI and digital twins are transforming 3D city and landscape modeling. The forum brought together experts working on scalable solutions for urban planning, regional modeling, and digital infrastructure.
At our stand, we showcased our platform’s capabilities in AI-based 3D data extraction, digital twin creation, and the use of mobile mapping for road and rail design. We were glad to be part of a conversation that’s clearly moving the industry toward more automated, data-driven tools.
International Exhibition for Track Technology (iaf)
From May 20 – 22, we joined over 15,000 professionals at the iaf in Münster, the world’s largest exhibition for railway construction. Our focus was on three key services:
- Topographic Surveys: Delivering precise railway infrastructure mapping in CAD and GIS formats.
- DataDEV Viewer: Enabling rail organizations to access and analyze geospatial data—like point clouds and panoramic images—without needing to visit the site.
- kinn-GVP-PB: A hybrid method for verifying control points (GVP), reducing fieldwork and improving safety by combining mobile mapping with traditional geodetic techniques.
These solutions address core challenges in rail maintenance and digitalization, offering efficiency and cost savings to infrastructure managers.
Both events confirmed a clear shift toward intelligent, digital workflows in infrastructure planning. From cities to rail networks, organizations are looking for tools that make data accessible, accurate, and actionable.
With our AI-powered DataDEV Platform, we continue to deliver solutions that streamline complex processes, while reducing time, costs, and manual effort.
We thank the organizers of 3D Forum Lindau and iaf for hosting such valuable exhibitions. The conversations and connections made this May will help shape our next innovations.
