Hummingbird Computing was formed in 1998 to develop terrain database and other computer products for use with a real-time modeling and simulation applications at a fraction of the traditional costs.

The founders of Hummingbird Computing Inc recognized that the advent of low cost, high performance virtual reality scene generators, such as those developed and sold by MetaVRTM Inc., the virtual reality technologies and computer simulation technologies used for the last decade and a half by the U.S. Department of Defense was now within affordable reach of the general population and small communities.  These technologies have been shown to be extremely useful in: 

bullet training emergency response personnel, 
bullet understanding the effects of new development on a community
bullet being able to provide a visual, interactive  portrayal of proposed buildings, roads, landscaping, disaster response, etc.

Our Mission

Development of custom terrain databases to support high resolution modeling and simulation.  In addition, we provide consulting services to individuals and organizations seeking to: 

bullet use modeling and simulation applications in support of analysis and/or training
bullet conduct alternative trade off analyses
bullet develop/install local area networks
bullet apply automation technologies to solving their unique requirements
