CAIGOS Luftbilder

CAIGOS GIS supports the efficient import and use of both vertical and oblique aerial imagery across a wide range of applications.

Aerial imagery captured during aerial surveys can be visualised directly, with support for all common formats. CAIGOS can convert the imagery into its proprietary raster format, significantly reducing data volumes without any visible loss of quality. This improves visualisation performance while substantially reducing the load on your IT network.

Georeferenced vertical images can be captured from aircraft as aerial imagery or from satellites as satellite imagery. Vertical images are planned as nadir images, with the camera’s optical axis directed vertically towards the ground. In practice, deviations of one to four degrees are typical. Only vertical imagery is used for stereoscopic viewing and quantitative analysis, including height measurement and mapping.

Photogrammetric processing can also be used to create 3D models from oblique aerial imagery, for example for three-dimensional city maps and terrain models. The number of storeys in buildings can also be derived reliably from oblique imagery.

Working with partner companies, CAIGOS GmbH provides a wide range of services covering the acquisition, processing, analysis and visualisation of digital orthophotos and aerial imagery.
