New Leica Products at ISPRS08/07/2008 |
| Leica Geosystems has introduced its new ADS80 Airborne Digital Sensor at the XXI ISPRS Congress in Beijing. From flight planning with Leica FPES and data acquisition with the Sensor Heads SH81/82 to data delivery with Leica XPro, the Leica ADS80 represents a complete digital airborne imaging solution. Since pan-sharpening and "virtual images" are not necessary, Leica Geosystems line sensor technology constitutes a digital alternative to those familiar with the traditional analog workflow. |

Ground processing with Leica XPro covers the whole line sensor workflow - from data download to image generation. Quality control tools can indicate a successful data capture mission at the earliest stage of processing. Direct georeferencing from Leica IPAS Inertial Position & Attitude System is used and further improved by aerial triangulation, simplified to a "black box" level. Leica XPro generates stereo-viewable images or high resolution orthophotos. The products are ready for further handling by a wide range of digital photogrammetry software packages.
The ALS60, Leica's LIDAR system, allows accurate data collection independent of pulse rate, depending instead only on flying height. And it‘s flying height envelope ranges from a helicopter-compatible 200 m AGL to 5000 m AGL for wide-area mapping.
At ISPRS, Leica Geosystems has also introduced a new medium format digital aerial camera system. The new 39-megapixel camera system Leica RCD105 is designed for "plug and play" connection to Leica Geosystems' airborne LIDAR systems. It is completely integrated with the Leica ALS-series LIDAR products from mission planning to system operation to image processing. Additionally, a single camera controller is capable of recording data from two camera heads, allowing simultaneous acquisition of natural color and false-color infrared images.
