Orthomosaic Imagery
Vexcel offers three types of orthomosaic imagery in Kentucky: TrueOrtho, Urban Ortho, and Wide Area Ortho.
Wide Area Ortho is available statewide, covering both urban and rural areas at a 15cm resolution. It provides a broad top-down view ideal for large-scale planning, environmental monitoring, infrastructure management, and more.
TrueOrtho and Urban Ortho are available in metro areas at a 7.5cm resolution, offering detailed aerial imagery that’s ideal for urban planning and property assessments.
Our entire Ortho product line is frequently updated, with metro areas being refreshed up to three times a year, ensuring you have the most current data for your projects.
Oblique Imagery
Shift your view with high-resolution Oblique imagery and take a virtual tour around all four sides of a home, building, or area. Improve your inspection or asset monitoring by identifying concerns or issues that wouldn’t normally be visible with a straight down viewpoint.
Oblique imagery is available for major metro areas in Kentucky at 7.5cm resolution.
Elevate
Keep up with the demands of 3D visualization using our Elevate products: Digital Surface Model (DSM) and Digital Terrain Model (DTM). With DSM/DTM data, you can transform your workflows with a stronger context and deeper understanding of the earth’s surface and structures on that surface. DSM data provides a 3D view of objects that sit on the earth’s surface. DTM shows the bare earth with objects removed. Plus, our DSM data has a perfect pixel-to-data match with our TrueOrtho and Multispectral imagery, creating perfect spatial alignment between elevation data and imagery for a more consistent, trusted output.
Multispectral Imagery
Using its market-leading UltraCam sensors, Vexcel collects a near-infrared color band while capturing aerial imagery of urban and rural areas across Kentucky. This wider color spectrum–invisible to the human eye–is published as color-infrared imagery, making it easier to identify living and non-living objects.
This top-down imagery helps classify areas at risk for wildfire, understand impervious surfaces and vegetation health, and more.
Elements
Enhance your property and building visualization with accurate, detailed, and quick property data from Elements, an entire product suite of automated insights. Machine learning is applied to Vexcel’s timestamped, high-resolution aerial imagery, and the output is 40+ property and building attributes.
Plus, as new imagery is collected and published, Elements is updated so you can access the most recent property information. Help drive innovation across your organization with next level property and building detail all with the Elements suite: Building Footprints, Building Attributes, Property Attributes & Property Reports, Damage Assessment & Damage Reports.
