One Billion Square Kilometers of Earth Imagery02/04/2010 |
| DigitalGlobe‘s content library now contains more than one billion square kilometers of earth imagery, 33% of which is less than one year old. DigitalGlobe's WorldView-1, QuickBird and recently launched WorldView-2 satellites combine to form the industry's largest satellite constellation. |
|
These three satellites, together with DigitalGlobe's aerial network, enable the company to offer the highest collection capacity of high-resolution earth imagery to customers around the world, adding roughly 1.5 million square kilometers of imagery every day or three times the Earth's landmass annually. The result is DigitalGlobe's highly complete ImageLibrary, containing imagery used to inform critical decisions across a range of industries.

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.
