Anditi's Timeline

In 1993 Peter founded environmental consultancy Umwelt. After working with spatial data for 25 years and watching as its potential grew, Peter recognised the opportunity to use LiDAR and imagery data as a renewable resource.

In 2014, Anditi was established as a stand-alone business with a purpose to transform spatial data and make it an accessible, actionable and empowering resource for everyday decisions.

2015 saw us start our Malleefowl journey, completing our first project of using LiDAR to detect the mounds of the endangered Malleefowl birds in semi-arid areas across Australia. 10 years later and we are the recognised leader in Malleefowl mound identification with 60+ projects delivered across Australia and a patented algorithm for detecting Malleefowl mounds.

In 2015 we cemented our partnership with the University of Newcastle, supporting the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science research department’s work in remote sensing data.

In 2017 we expanded our services into mobile LiDAR, completing our first mobile LiDAR project for Main Roads Western Australia, forging relationships with global mobile data supplier TomTom and influential road safety body iRAP.

Anditi’s sustained growth necessitated a move out of the Umwelt offices and into a place of our own, moving into the innovation hub at Eighteen04, where we completed projects for clients as varied as Local, State and Federal Governments, infrastructure and mining giants such as BHP Billiton, AECOM and John Holland, and international bodies including the European Commission and iRAP.

Our technological advancements led to recognition from the Australian Federal Government with an Accelerating Commercialisation grant. Continued growth prompted strategic hires in Operations, Research, Business Development, and Marketing, along with a move to new offices. Our partnership with the University of Newcastle deepened, with many Geospatial, Environmental Science, and Computer Engineering students joining Anditi as Data Controllers, interns, or permanent staff, alongside ongoing support for PhD research.

In 2021, we launched RoadViewer, which provides Intelligent Road Corridor Solutions to Road Authorities, Road Managers, and Road Users around the world. The launch of RoadViewer coincided with Anditi becoming the only company globally to gain iRAP and AiRAP accreditation for the use of LiDAR and imagery for Star Rating, helping to make road safety assessments cheaper, faster and more accurate than ever before. RoadViewer also includes other valuable road corridor-related products, including feature extraction, asset management, swept path analysis and route clearance for oversized vehicles, and bridge clearances.

Anditi has delivered 125+ successful projects in the past five years. We continue developing new tools and products and operate globally at the forefront of spatial data analytics. Contact us to learn how we can help solve your spatial data challenges.
