High Resolution & Accurate
Aerial Imagery for Smart Cities
Imagery and geospatial data to support infrastructure planning, sustainability initiatives, and connected networks for next-gen cities.
Access Real Ground Truth
City planners need consistent, reliable data to visualize a project and evaluate the short and long-term effects of any smart city initiatives. Crystal clear aerial maps from Vexcel provide precise detail and unlock features hidden to the naked eye. Use multispectral imagery and digital surface models to classify vegetation and interpret the earth’s surface to better manage complex city environments.

FAQs about Vexcel for Smart Cities
Q: How does aerial imagery support smart city planning?
Vexcel aerial imagery helps cities better understand infrastructure, land use, transportation networks, development patterns, and surrounding conditions at scale. Smart city teams use Vexcel imagery to support urban planning, zoning, infrastructure management, transportation analysis, emergency planning, and long-term city development workflows. Vexcel imagery also provides better detail than satellite imagery and wider coverage than drone programs.
Q: What types of Vexcel data are used for smart city initiatives?
Smart city initiatives use multiple types of Vexcel data, including ortho imagery, oblique imagery, multispectral imagery, DSM and DTM elevation models, 3D city models, and AI-derived geospatial datasets. Together, these datasets help cities analyze buildings, transportation corridors, vegetation, land use, and urban environments in greater detail.
Q: How can Vexcel imagery help with urban sustainability and vegetation analysis?
Vexcel multispectral imagery helps cities better understand vegetation health, tree canopy coverage, water conditions, impervious surfaces, and changing environmental conditions across urban areas. Cities and other organizations also use Vexcel imagery to classify vegetation types and support sustainability, environmental planning, heat island analysis, and urban resilience workflows.
Q: Can aerial data support digital twin creation for cities?
Yes. Vexcel imagery, elevation models, and 3D city models help cities build detailed digital twins for urban planning, infrastructure management, simulation, and smart city workflows.
Q: How does Vexcel imagery support land use and infrastructure analysis?
Vexcel imagery and AI-derived geospatial data help cities identify buildings, roadways, transportation infrastructure, and other real-world features across large urban areas. Cities use these datasets to support infrastructure planning, land use analysis, mapping, and broader smart city initiatives.
