NIST Public Safety Innovation Accelerator Program – Point Cloud City
The NIST Public Safety Innovation Accelerator Program is seeking applications from U. S. state, local and tribal governments to create a model ‘Point Cloud City’.
Successful applicants will receive funding to generate an extensive catalog of annotated 3D indoor point clouds that can
be used by industry, academia, and government to advance research and development in the areas of indoor mapping, localization and navigation for public safety, as well as to demonstrate the potential value of ubiquitous indoor positioning and location-based information.
Recipients will also participate in the NIST Global Cities Team Challenge initiative as the lead for an Action Cluster.
