Imagery
Imagery collection is used for differing applications and ranges from Black & White to Color Infra Red and near Infra Red. For simple visual interpretation, Black & White imagery may be the most efficient solution. Where change detection is needed, it is useful to work with color imagery or Infra Red and near I/R bands where a larger spectrum of color can be analyzed.

Imagery for mapping applications is collected with overlap that can be used to create stereo models. This type of imagery is used as a foundation for constructing and aligning overlays of geographic features, such as zoning, property boundaries, and utility networks. When fused with an elevation model, an ortho rectification can be performed, creating a geospatially corrected image. Ortho rectified imagery is the most efficient and cost effective way to build and maintain a land base for your GIS.
