Last month, the company announced an August 22, 2008 launch date for its next-generation, earth-imaging satellite GeoEye-1. Once launched, it will be the world's highest resolution commercial earth-imaging satellite. GeoEye-1 will be able to collect images with a ground resolution of 0.41-meters or 16 inches in the panchromatic, or black-and-white mode, and collect multispectral, or color imagery, at 1.65-meter resolution. The first stage of the United Launch Alliance Delta II launch vehicle has already arrived at Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.

3D Scanning of Historic Sugar Factories |

The Alliance for Integrated Spatial Technologies at the University of South Florida, USA, recently worked with the Florida Park Service on a project to document the remains of several historic sugar-mill sites in the State Parks to create as-builts to be used in preservation and conservation of these resources. The FARO LS 880, along with GPS and total station georeferencing and colour imaging, was used on these projects.
