United States Remapped in 3D24/03/2009 |
| Intermap Technologies today announced it has completed the data collection of its NEXTMap USA 3D mapping program. History's first company-funded initiative to map 3.1 million square miles (more than 8 million km2) of the entire contiguous U.S. and Hawaii was completed 16th March 2009. |

NEXTMap USA will ultimately generate an elevation for the nation dataset at unprecedented accuracy and detail that includes 3D digital terrain models, digital surface models, contours, 3D road centerline geometries, and other high-resolution geospatial products as part of the Company's proactive mapping program.
Numerous GIS and geospatial markets have already benefitted from map data previously processed and edited as part of the NEXTMap USA program. Statewide and partial wide area datasets are currently enabling commercial and government agencies in the fields of environmental management, carbon emission reduction and fuel efficiency improvement, engineering planning, renewable energy, and more.
Geospatial datasets will be 100% commercially available in early 2010. More than 48% of the NEXTMap USA data is currently available for immediate purchase. The data collection of the NEXTMap Europe program was completed in May 2008 and all of the data, as yet unprocessed, will be on the shelf and available for purchase by the end of April 2009.

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.
