DSS RapidOrtho 2.0 for High-Speed Orthophoto Production

  04/09/2009
RapidOrtho 2.0 is a software enhancement for Applanix\' Digital Sensor System (DSS). DSS RapidOrtho is a complete airborne digital imaging system for first responders and geospatial professionals who need to deliver rapid, highly-accurate ortho-rectified imagery without time-consuming and expensive ground surveys. The system is used for rapid response for emergency mapping operations, change detection and more; it has even been adopted as a productivity tool for commercial mapping projects.

Images can be developed and ortho-rectified as much as three times faster than the previous version. For example, images from the DSS 439 (39 megapixel) camera can be delivered in as little as 12 seconds per orthophoto, using a standard quad-core desktop computer. This means a typical mapping mission of 3 hours flight time can be taken to full orthophoto product in as little as three hours after landing.

Released as part of POSPac MMS software update 5.3, the new RapidOrtho also offers better Digital Elevation Model (DEM) management. A new utility allows users to import and convert readily available DEM datasets - including Lidar data - into the RapidOrtho format; this means first responders can utilize any locally-available elevation data for rapid delivery of orthophotos.

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.
