StreetMapper in Africa

08/02/2011

Global Geomatics, South Africa, has purchased a StreetMapper mobile laser mapping system. It is the first system of its kind to be operational in Africa and will provide the company with an advantage with a rapid surveying capability. The acquisition of the StreetMapper system will compliment existing capabilities in the fields of aerial mapping, underground detection and 3D laser imaging.

Streetmapper in Africa

Global Geomatics is a multi disciplinary geomatics company specialising in the provision of geographic data to support engineers, planners, architects, government departments, local authorities and utility companies.

“We are proud to set the standard for the geomatics industry,” commented Altus Strydom, Managing Director of Global Geomatics. “We were the first survey company in Africa to adopt satellite positioning (GPS), the first to embrace Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and one of the first to purchase a static laser scanner. The acquisition of the StreetMapper mobile mapping system will help us maintain this position and continue to offer our international client base a first class service and best possible value for money.”
