Oblique Aerial and Orthos from the Same Flight
It seems like only a few short years ago that Cities and Counties recognized the need for GIS systems and accurate orthophotography. No longer are the users of aerial photography confined to the limited perspective of straight down imagery. Now, oblique aerial imagery has become even more important in support of city and county operations. The market is quickly demanding the contextual value of oblique views with the location accuracy that they are accustomed to with orthophotography. As a pioneer in the delivery of spatially accurate imagery, expect
GEOSPAN
to fulfill this demand an affordable price.
GEOVISTA®
camera systems for light aircraft contain five digital cameras pointing forward, back, right, left and down. The nadir image is used to create a conventional digital orthophoto. In a single flight, enough imagery is captured to offer 360° viewing of 12 to 24 different oblique views of every location with a pixel resolution of 3” to 6” providing a tremendous amount of visual detail.
