ETC selected Simthetiq to provide a rapid, cost-effective terrain solution for use in their Advanced Disaster Management Simulator (ADMS) product. Simthetiq’s objective was to develop a multi-state synthetic terrain (database) of Bima and Padang in Indonesia, which will be used to train first-responders and emergency management teams in dealing with a whole range of natural disasters.
The Bima and Padang regions of Indonesia were identified by the end-user as high-risk areas for mudslides, earthquakes, and floods. Both synthetic training environments were built with GIS data to generate geo-specific roads and buildings and properly replicate the density of the environment. This flexible method was chosen to rapidly expand the training zone to a larger area of interest (AOI), or add additional details. Ultimately this will help rescue teams to be better prepared and save more lives in the event of a potential catastrophe.
ETC was extremely pleased with Simthetiq’s ability to deliver an innovative and cost-effective solution in a short timeframe. “Understanding Simthetiq’s capabilities and expertise in 3D terrain development, we felt they were a natural choice to assist us in this complex project” said Marco van Wijngaarden, President of ETC Simulation, who continued, “We are very happy with the quality and the timely completion, and look forward to continued cooperation with Simthetiq.”
The solution demonstrates Simthetiq’s capabilities to bring real immersive simulation solutions that solve real-world problems.
