Elevate
Elevate depicts 3D height information of the earth in high-spatial resolution across both urban and rural areas in Michigan. Created during Vexcel’s aerial captures, customers get a real pixel-to-height data match with other Vexcel aerial products.
The result: A perfect spatial alignment between elevation data and imagery for a more consistent and trusted accurate output. Vexcel offers digital surface models (DSM) and digital terrain models (DTM) for Michigan.
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 Michigan. 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.
Disaster Imagery
Michigan can sometimes experience natural disasters, like tornadoes. Vexcel captures, processes, and delivers imagery after major disasters that impact property. Providing rapid access to post-catastrophe imagery results in improved responses for insurers, emergency responders, and utility providers.
This imagery also helps government agencies understand the full picture of the impacted areas and track progress as communities rebuild.
