The Ground of Every Operation

Realistic environments of Planet Earth and Beyond

Octa Models creates realistic environments of real places: the foundational ground on which any operation on Earth is planned, built and run.

Breda–Montseny, Catalonia · the model at the golden hour

01

Living models of a real place

Modelled, not drawn.

Every operation answers to the forces of its place: the rock and soil beneath it, the water moving through it, the air and climate around it, the sun above it. These forces weigh more on a decision than any plan.

Octa Models builds a living model of one octagon of ground, from the authorities' own data, to the half metre where the country has mapped it by LiDAR, and opens it in 2D and 3D, one plain question per tab. Every value names its source. Where none exists, you see a dash, not a guess.

02 / The models

One place, many storeys.

Each model is a storey of the same ground, built on the one beneath it: water lies on the rock, air moves over the water, and the sky turns above all of them. Every tab opens with the question it answers.

The Ground model of Breda–Montseny
01 · EcologicalGround

The rock and soil beneath it.

The Water model of Breda–Montseny
02 · EcologicalWater

The water moving through it.

The Air model of Breda–Montseny
03 · EcologicalAir

The air and climate around it.

The Sky model of Breda–Montseny
04 · EcologicalSky

The sun above it, and every star above the land.

Its aim for the future: every aspect of a place in one model, so that whoever stands on it can see the conditions they live in, understand them, and act with that understanding.

03 / How it works

Place. Choose. Build. Open.

  1. 1 · PlaceDraw your octagon

    Click the map to set its centre and choose its size, from 1 km to 300 km across. You see its area and price at once.

  2. 2 · ChoosePick the models

    Ground, Water, Air and Sky. Tick a whole model or only the items you need.

  3. 3 · BuildWe build and check it

    We gather the data for your exact octagon from named sources, build the model and check it by hand.

  4. 4 · OpenYour model opens

    Explore it in 2D and 3D, tab by tab. Every value shows its source and quality.

04 / Honest by design

No source, no value.

It would rather show a dash than guess. A place without data shows a dash and a grey surface, never another place's numbers.

Authority

Read from a named official source.

Other source

From a named non-official source, labelled as such.

Verified

Checked by people, at the desk or on site, quoted case by case.

No source: a dash shows the gap.

05 / Accuracy, measured

How close to the real place.

The demo at Breda–Montseny was measured against independent references, national survey data and NASA's own ephemeris, not against itself.

0.45m
The ground

A pixel at the closest view, from Catalonia's own LiDAR survey (ICGC). About ten height readings along one parked car.

4.7m
Against world data

How far the free world elevation model sits from Breda's true ground, typically. The demo reads the national survey instead.

0.15°
The sun

From NASA JPL's ephemeris on average, over every daylight hour of 2024: a 10 m tree's shadow falls within 15 cm of where NASA puts it.

29× 3
Every view

Every tab of the four Ecological models opened in 3D, in 2D and as a table before launch, with no error.
