Pictometry

MDA introduces Pictometry, an advanced oblique aerial imaging system that allows clients to access up to 20 different views of a location or feature of interest. Pictometry’s easy-to-use software lets clients measure distances, heights, areas, and widths of objects directly from each Intelligent Image®.

Unlike traditional straight-down orthophotos, Pictometry’s high-resolution, digital aerial images are primarily oblique – taken at an angle for a 3D-like view. This presents the visual information in a way that is easier to interpret and in a more familiar manner for people to use. Combined with Pictometry’s measuring software, you can view, examine and analyze your environment in an exciting and powerful new way.
