UltraCamX for Kucera International02/01/2012 |
| Kucera International, USA, has contracted Microsoft's UltraCam business unit and subsidiary, Vexcel Imaging GmbH, to upgrade its UltraCamLp digital aerial photogrammetric camera to an UltraCamX system. |
|
In May 2011, the company needed a new camera system at short notice to complete a project in Poland. Fortunately, Microsoft was able to quickly provide an UltraCam system, says John Antalovich, Jr., president of Kucera International. "An UltraCamLp was already on order but the long-term plan is to operate with two UltraCamX systems. Consequently, we ultimately decided in favour of a second UltraCamX in lieu of the UltraCamLp which had been ordered."
Kucera purchased its first UltraCamX in 2010 and saw immediate advantages over film, such as faster turnaround and better image quality. The company was pleased to realise that the UltraCamX allows for data collection under less than optimal conditions with results that still meet project specifications, which greatly expands collection opportunities during periods of poor weather.
