Digimapas Chile Aerofotogrametria Ltda. has acquired a state of the art airborne sensor system from TopoSys GmbH, which will allow Digimapas to serve as the unique Chilean service provider to the primary national industries from forestry, mining and infrastructure. The acquired system consist of an European made laser scanning system, two north American digital cameras and the necessary airborne navigation equipment from Canada.

The headquarter is situated in Chileīs capital Santiago, having access to all necessary human, intelligence and hardware resources. The present team is formed by sophisticated and highly specialized staff members from Chile, Brazil and Europe.

Digimapas Chile is at present the most advanced spatial information company in Chile, due to the combination of latest technology and an experienced team of more than 20 years in remote sensing applications.

The portfolio of products includes, among others: The delivery of high precision digital elevation models, true ortho imagery, base-, cadastral and topographic maps. Requests for special applications are addressed by adding value to Digimapas standard products, which allows the ability to generate almost any thematic map interpretation product desired.

The company has recently received a contract for mapping more than 73 000 kmē of Chilean territory to generate high resolution and high precision elevation models in combination with digital imagery for forest applications. Until the beginning of June 2007, more than 19 000 kmē of products are ready to be delivered to customers.

QCoherent Software is an innovative provider of high-capacity, integrated LIDAR software tools (Limitless LIDAR™). We are a company whose founders have a wide array of experience with LIDAR and the mapping sciences.  Our extensive knowledge of GIS software in general and LIDAR software in particular has been focused on the long-standing need for an Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) extension for viewing and analyzing LIDAR data.  Our first product, LP360, was released in August 2006 and was exceptionally well received.  The immediate success of LP360 confirms that QCoherent Software's mission of providing powerful LIDAR software targeted at day-to-day operations was "spot-on".

 

LP360 is a first-of-its-kind LIDAR extension for the ESRITM environment.  The LP360 LIDAR extension uses a specially-designed ArcMap™ data layer to draw points directly from LAS files thereby integrating LIDAR data with the rest of your GIS.  LIDAR data can be viewed together with data in any format supported by ArcGIS™, including vector data, rasters, and imagery.

 

LP360 is tightly integrated into the ArcGISTM environment, and yet provides superior performance when run against even the largest LIDAR data sets. Since the LP360 can handle your entire LIDAR project, it is truly Limitless LIDAR™ !

TerraTec AS is a Norwegian full service provider of surveying, data acquisition and photogrammetric mapping services to the private and public market sector worldwide. We also develop niche products like the positioning software TerraPos, with outstanding accuracy and reliability. TerraTec’s business heritage dates back as far as 1910.

 

Airborne LiDAR

TerraTec was the first company worldwide to take advantage of the Leica ALS 50 phase-II lidar system with a capacity of 150 000 pulses per sec. We supply a multitude of types of LiDAR measurements, with applications ranging from traditional map services to specific DTM’s tailored to the customer. We are the dominant supplier of power line mapping in Norway, and have developed valuable expertise in providing specialized products to the power industry. TerraTec’s LiDAR is also equipped with a 22 megapixel metric camera for raw images or orthophoto production. Data processing is performed with products from TerraSolid. For DTM’s and contour line production we take advantage of advanced software like SCOP from Inpho. TerraTec’s LiDAR team operates internationally in addition to the Nordic market.

 

TerraPos

TerraPos is a software for Precise Point Positioning (PPP). It is an effective, easy to use interface to the high quality products of the international GNSS service (IGS). TerraPos is a robust, reliable software, totally unique with respect to accuracy. We can offer accuracy (RMS) of 3-5 cm horizontally and 4-7 cm vertically. TerraPos is the ideal positioning solution for any moving platform.

TopoSys GmbH was founded in 1995 and is a pioneer of the airborne LIDAR mapping industry. TopoSys operates its internally engineered sensor systems and is a leading service provider throughout Europe. The German-engineered, TopoSys LIDAR sensor systems are distributed world-wide, and are already in third position in the world-wide aerial LIDAR market. In February 2007, TopoSys North America, Inc. was established as a wholly-owned subsidiary with North American headquarters in Denver, Colo.

The TopoSys line of aerial LIDAR mapping systems: The Harrier 56, Harrier 24 and the Falcon III are economically priced, allowing engineering, surveying and mapping firms to use this technology for large-scale surveys such as engineering site development, road surveys, power and pipeline monitoring, hydrographic studies of floodplains and coastal erosion and topographic mapping. Operational flexibility, efficient workflow and quick product turn-around are key features of the TopoSys LIDAR systems.
