Use cases

While any AWS Enterprise customer can access the Data Transfer Terminal system, certain use case scenarios may find greater benefit from it.

Autonomous Driving and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (AD/ADAS): Automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and suppliers generate large data sets from their fleets of autonomous vehicles operating and collecting data in numerous metros within North America, Europe, and ASEAN. With Data Transfer Terminal, the data collected by these fleet vehicles can be uploaded to the AWS Cloud service and used to train AD/ADAS models.

Media and Entertainment: Studios and other content creators often generate digital video and audio (AV) files in remote locations. It is important these AV files are uploaded to the cloud in a timely manner so that geographically dispersed production and editing teams can begin workflows in parallel and in real-time. By using Data Transfer Terminal to remotely upload data, production timelines can be shortened, translating into reduced production costs.

Maps, Photogrammetry, and 3D imagery: Organizations that work with mapping or imagery applications collect data in remote locations and need to upload these visual files to the AWS Cloud for analysis or training. Data Transfer Terminal minimizes the time between collecting and analyzing these large data sets, which helps keep geospacial data up-to-date for drivers, farmers, and other users of that information.
