Flight Landata Contract for Aerial Imaging in Afghanistan22/10/2008 |
| 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.
