Landex Systems converts legacy utility maps, drawings, and PDFs into a searchable, georeferenced database using computer‑vision and natural‑language queries. The platform extracts asset details, assigns precise latitude/longitude coordinates, and returns relevant records with confidence scores, integrating via API with existing GIS or asset‑management tools.

Problem
Utility and infrastructure records are often stored as legacy maps, drawings, and PDFs that lack geographic indexing, making it difficult for field crews and planners to locate relevant information quickly. Accessing these archives typically requires manual searching through physical cabinets or disparate digital files, leading to delays, missed assets, and costly errors during construction or maintenance.
Solution
Landex Systems digitizes and indexes any format of legacy infrastructure documentation—PDFs, scans, CAD exports, or paper records—by applying computer‑vision and georeferencing techniques to assign precise latitude/longitude coordinates to each document. The extracted assets, locations, and notes are stored in a structured, queryable database that can be accessed through a natural‑language search interface. Users can ask plain‑English questions and receive relevant records, complete with confidence scores and extracted feature details, without needing to modify existing GIS or asset‑management systems. The platform delivers searchable, location‑based data that integrates with current workflows, enabling faster decision‑making on site and in the office.
Target Audience
Primary customers are utility companies, municipal public works departments, and engineering firms that manage extensive legacy infrastructure archives and need fast, location‑based retrieval of that information.
