The Pointerra Ltd (ASX: 3DP) share price is rocketing in morning trade, up 21% to 44 cents per share.

Earlier today the 3D geospatial data technology company released its corporate presentation. We look at a few highlights below.

What did Pointerra present?

Investors may be bidding up the Pointerra share price after the company reported annual contract value (ACV) growth of 240%. ACV increased from $2.9 million from July 2020 to $9.8 million reported as at July 2021.

Meanwhile cash receipts from its customers reached $4.1 million for the full 2021 financial year (FY21), up from $1.8 million in FY20. The company reported cash receipts of $1.4 million in Q4 FY21 alone.

Pointerra also expanded its full-time employees from 12 to 29.

The company credited ACV growth to "customer-led engagement, focused on solving workflow problems and 'automating the manual'". It said its existing customers continued to increase their spending, with very low churn rate.

The United States utility sector counts among its leading customers. Pointerra is directly contracting with utilities as well as with their mapping providers. The company said:

Pointerra has combined advanced machine learning algorithms for automatically extracting valuable information from 3D data with extensive browser-based manual feature identification/editing tools.

Mining companies also are turning to Pointerra's technology platform.

The Pointerra share price may also be getting a boost as the company reported it is collaborating with the US Department of Defense. It said it is "responding to the requirement to constantly enhance the capability of the modern war fighter through the use of technology".

Pointerra reported the solution to modern defence needs is, "Automated analytics that fuses newly acquired and historic 3D spatial data and delivers insight in real-time to support informed decision making."
