USGS Certification for UltraCamXp and UltraCamXp WA

  29/04/2010
From the ASPRS 2010 conference in San Diego (USA), Vexcel Imaging GmbH announced that it received notice from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) that the UltraCamXp and UltraCamXp Wide Angle (WA) successfully completed the USGS Sensor Type Certification Process. USGS certifies that the UltraCamXp and UltraCamXp WA are "capable of providing quality, consistent image data to support civil government programs at the performance level specified in the USGS sensor type certification report."

UltraCam XP and Ultracam XP WA

The UltraCamD was certified by USGS in December 2006, and the UltraCamX in July 2008. The UltraCamXp was released in 2008 with an enlarged footprint and enhanced storage capabilities compared to its predecessors, the UltraCamD and UltraCamX. The UltraCamXp Wide Angle was introduced in 2009. By featuring a wide-angle lens with a shorter focal length, the UltraCamXp WA allows lower-flying airplanes to collect data at the same ground sample distance (GSD) as higher-flying planes carrying the UltraCamXp, while delivering the same image quality.

The UltraCamXp and the UltraCamXp WA have the same format with an enlarged footprint of 196 megapixels and a pixel size of 6 micrometres. Both cameras are fully compatible with the storage (DXp) and computing (CXp) systems of the UltraCamX and are fully supported by Vexcel's UltraMap 2.0 workflow software system.
