GaiaViz helps businesses, governments and healthcare navigate their data in 3D real-time, by providing our 3D visualization solutions and our technical expertise to transform their data experience.
We provide data visualizations design and development services and specialize in live and interactive 3D projects. We also offer showcase 3D data presentations (using zSpace VR desktops, etc.), from presentations to real-time monitoring systems.
Our efforts are designed to increase both analytic capacity and engagement. We wish to bring fun in computing and data ! GaiaViz distributes 3D interactive data viz with all necessary services and support to all who wish to explore their data with the most performance.

GaiaViz’s Mission: insights to harmonize biosphere and civilization
GaiaViz 3D Data Fusion is aimed at creating a complete picture of the Earth that allows for understanding the interaction between civilization and the biosphere.
Inspiration
It is initially inspired by Tom Van Sant (Geosphere Project) and Buckminster Fuller’s Spaceship Earth / World Games, but has grown into a more modern vision and focused not just on the technical problem, but also the social one of how do we all work together. Now the technology is ready for it, we aimed to create such places, for small groups to cities, to global organizations.
Goal
Our goal is to create a collaborative system that everyone can use and participate in decision making, from the micro household level up to macro transnational organizations.
We would like to visualize all of this data combined, to provide a holistic view helping to show what the political, commercial and other complex system dynamics are in future planning, community resilience:
- energy infrastructure
- trade data are of significant interest with environmental (DataONE, for example)
- economic and social data (US AID, UN SDG’s, EU Open Data…).
- disaster climate modeling, showing past, current and likelihood of future disasters throughout the entire world.
Visualizing complex systems in realtime
Our unique solution is strong 14 years of development through various governmental and academic grants and with tried-and-trued results. Our core visualization engine offers a cognitive-friendly and performant 3D data-visualization engine capable of outstanding performance.
Control rooms are a common practice for infrastructure. Such rooms are an area of interest as not only do we get to visualize complex systems in realtime, but it also allows us to implement our most advanced hardware. That is tactile control surfaces (knobs, buttons, dials, sliders, etc.) and display systems (glassless VR, projection walls, etc.)
