Maxar’s industry-leading 2D and 3D products serve as the
geospatial foundation for the FMS, which provides a realistic
representation of real-world operating environments to enhance
pilot training and mission rehearsal. The new agreement establishes
standardized pricing, licensing, and requirements for several Maxar
products, including Dynamic basemaps and Precision3D, enabling F-35
customers to begin training and mission preparedness operations
faster.
“Maxar Intelligence is excited to expand on our long-standing
partnership with Lockheed Martin and further improve the F-35 Full
Mission Simulator experience, which represents an industry gold
standard for immersive training and mission readiness support,”
said Susanne Hake, General Manager, U.S. Government, Maxar
Intelligence. “Maxar’s geospatial products, particularly
Precision3D, are critical to the success of this system. They
enable the highly accurate, precise simulated real-world
environments that are brought to life in the FMS, creating an
immersive experience that helps improve pilot safety and enhance
mission success.”
Maxar’s Precision3D Data Suite provides highly accurate and
detailed 3D models of Earth with 50-centimeter resolution and
absolute accuracy of 3 meters in all dimensions. The accuracy is
achieved without ground control and is consistent on all surfaces
and terrain types, including building facades. Precision3D provides
a precise, true representation of Earth that not only reflects the
terrain in all dimensions but also provides an accurate foundation
for additional data sources through Precision3D Registration
(P3DR™) georegistration.
In addition to Precision3D, the agreement covers Maxar’s Dynamic
imagery basemaps, which utilize the latest innovations in
mosaicking, color balancing and image processing to produce
high-resolution, high-accuracy image layers configured to meet
specific customer requirements.
