Flight Landata Contract for Aerial Imaging in Afghanistan

  22/10/2008
The U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center (Army TEC) has awarded a contract extension to Flight Landata (MA, USA) for the continuation of aerial imaging services in Afghanistan. Since 2007, Flight Landata has been flying the BuckEye aerial imaging system to acquire ultra-high resolution imagery for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and mapping activities on behalf of U.S. military commanders in the region.

In addition to operating the BuckEye, Flight Landata develops and builds imaging systems, including the electro-optical (EO) version of the BuckEye that is being operated in Iraq, Afghanistan, and United States. The BuckEye EO is a light-weight imaging system that can be flown aboard fixed wing, rotor wing, and UAV aircraft to acquire large-format natural-color imagery with centimeter-level resolution. Under the initial 2007 Army TEC contract, Flight Landata has provided a complete ISR/mapping solution to the U.S. military by managing all flight operations of the BuckEye system aboard the company's aircraft.

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.
