Core concepts

Hexagon Digital Reality (HxDR) is more than just a platform; it's a transformative ecosystem that changes how geospatial and reality data are conceptualised, managed and engaged. Imagine a cloud-based realm where storage isn't just about holding data but intelligently organising it. Picture a platform where visualisation tools don't merely display information but enable insightful interactions. Consider a digital environment where collaboration isn't confined to sending files but extends to real-time engagement with datasets. That's HxDR — a comprehensive, one-stop solution for many industry needs.

Built on a foundation of cutting-edge cloud architecture, HxDR's scalability makes it suitable for individual projects and a strong candidate for corporate-wide adoption. The platform bridges localised data captured from lightweight scanners and more expansive, large-scale data.

“The goal of HxDR is to open up geospatial content and reality capture in the cloud with a set of essential tools and processes that are intuitive, accessible and highly automated,” said Frank Suykens, Senior Vice President of Visual Computing at Hexagon, who has been with HxDR since the very first brainstorming sessions in early 2018.

From its inception, HxDR represented more than a groundbreaking technological accomplishment; it embodied an aspiration towards democratising data — making data capture, management and utilisation so simple that anyone, regardless of skills or background, can do it. HxDR’s platform, accessible to all, is powered by intuitive tools that simplify complex processes and promote greater inclusivity in handling geospatial and reality data.
