Oblique
Aerial Images

A different perspective – view locations and urban objects
from four vantage points.

Today, high-resolution oblique aerial images are an important tool used by many municipal and district administrations. They provide an excellent foundation for analyzing urban structures and ascertaining changes in both urban and rural settings. One aspect that continues to gain importance in this regard is the ability to access oblique aerial images from any workplace (or other locations) at any time, without administrative barriers. This enables various user departments – within a city’s administration, for example – to go about their work in a flexible, application-oriented manner.

A simple, web-based map application

To take full advantage of the benefits of such images, large volumes of image data have to be properly refined. Instead of bringing up individual oblique aerial images in a desktop application, our solution offers seamless, comprehensive presentations in a high-performance web map application. This means the images can also be used on smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices at meetings or on-site appointments. It’s possible to publish them, as well. In doing so, it’s easy to set a maximum resolution for oblique aerial images – in order to meet certain data protection requirements, for instance.
