Aerial Photography

Aerial photography forms the basis for all photogrammetric mapping. Colour or Black & White, Airborne GPS Aerial Photography at a specified scale can be done with either a Zeiss RMK Top 15/23 or a Jena Zeiss LMK 1000, both equipped with forward motion compensation (FMC), with valid calibration certificates. The Zeiss LMK is equipped with a Gyro Stabilized Mount.
Both cameras have a proven track record to produce high precision accuracies and high quality imagery.

The key to the accuracy of all photogrammetric mapping is high quality aerial photography, a process which entails the strictest attention to details from weather to flight and from camera to film.
