The Singapore Land Authority (SLA) is a statutory board under the Ministry of Law with a mission to optimise land resources for the economic and social development of Singapore. The SLA-led SGD $8 million government initiative is intended to create and maintain a world’s first high-resolution 3D map of an entire country. Created using Bentley software, the 3D map will provide multi-user access to this information to support daily operational requirements, planning, risk management, and more. The project encompassed all of Singapore, an area of more than 700 square kilometres. Bentley’s comprehensive solution enabled NCS, the system integrator for the project, to meet SLA’s 2D and 3D cadastre management requirements, while providing flexibility in terms of in-house development and a data agnostic environment. Simplicity of integration with other technologies, such as Oracle Spatial, was important because SLA will manage both 2D and 3D data natively in Oracle to meet wider objectives

Cadence Design Systems Inc. announced that it has collaborated with Lumerical Solutions Inc. (www.lumerical.com) and PhoeniX B.V. (www.phoenixbv.com) to jointly develop an integrated electronic/photonic design automation (EPDA) environment for photonic ICs (PICs). Built around the Cadence® Virtuoso® custom design platform, the EPDA environment enables schematic or layout-driven design flows for photonic and electronic circuits, photonic component parameter extraction and model generation, photonic circuit simulation and photonic mask layout implementation for both monolithic and hybrid 3D-IC photonic circuits. Electronic Photonic Design Environment To improve productivity, designers can capture the optical circuit in Virtuoso Schematic Editor and then use the Virtuoso Analog Design Environment to simulate the design with Lumerical’s INTERCONNECT, a time- and frequency-domain mixed-signal photonic circuit simulation engine similar to SPICE that is specially designed to account for multi-mode, multi-channel circuits prevalent in integrated photonics. The close integration with the Virtuoso Analog Design Environment can offer interactive analysis, easy design and parameterization
