UltraCam Merlin 5.0

The UltraCam Merlin excels in high-performance photogrammetric nadir mapping. Its industry-leading camera design combines state-of-the-art RGB Bayer pattern CMOS sensors with a true nadir cone assembly for distortion-free imagery without re-sampling.

Three user-exchangeable lens kits ensure the impressive footprint of 37,500 pixels across the flight strip can be fully leveraged at different altitudes for maximum airspace flexibility. With UltraMap’s True Pixel Processing (TPP) pipeline, including multi-directional, scene-aware motion blur correction via Adaptive Motion Compensation (AMC), the Merlin delivers consistent, sharp, high-fidelity aerial imagery. It captures ground truth at unprecedented scale, forming a superior foundation for orthophotos, elevation modeling, and feature extraction, including AI-driven analysis and automation.
