BIG DATA Pic&Go

Mobile and web-based technology has changed the way we manage information.
Necessary information is spread among several forms: images, sensors, textual data, voice, video, schemes, etc.
Pic&Go is a hub to integrate all kind of field information. It speeds up field data capture and allows big data analysis.
SERVICES: Data structuring: Analysis of existing data organisation; Optimisation of data structure; Implementation. Big data: Analysis of existing data organisation; Optimisation of data structure; Creation of tags
PRODUCTS: Pic&Go: A picture is worth a thousand words. Pic&Go uses pictures as the main entry point. Capture images; Contextualisation: tags, mark ups, voice, text; Transfer to cloud.
I offer this technology to cooperate with other companies and technologies to improve visibility and integrate services. I also request research cooperation in whatever field that information capture and analysis is required.
