French Digital Maps Added to NEXTMap Database09/01/2009 |
| Intermap Technologies' NEXTMap Europe program has reached a milestone in December 2008 by making elevation data for the entire country of France commercially available. For the first time, uniformly accurate 3D digital elevation models and high-resolution orthorectified radar images are available for the largest country (551,695 square kilometres) in the European Union. |

France joins Germany, Great Britain, and Luxembourg as complete European countries benefitting from Intermap's elevation models and images. Intermap now has available more than 1.2 million square kilometres of European data - representing 50% of the NEXTMap Europe initiative that already includes the above mentioned full country datasets and portions of Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and The Netherlands.
NEXTMap datasets include digital surface models (1m or better vertical accuracy) that depict the earth's surface (including cultural features such as vegetation, buildings, and roads), digital terrain models displaying the bare earth (with all cultural features digitally removed), and orthorectified radar images corrected to remove normal geometric distortions (grayscale and color images that accentuate topographic features).
Intermap will continue adding entire country datasets to the NEXTMap Europe library until the completion of its NEXTMap Europe program.

During this presentation of Blaise Aguera during TED 2010, you can see Bing Maps working from the sky towards street-level imagery and also showing images inside buildings. It even is capable adding real-time movie imagery from inside. |
