Home » DeLorme Launches TopoBird Airborne 3D Data Collection Platform 03.05.2003
Leica ADS40 Airborne Digital Sensor and Leica ALS40 Airborne Laser Scanner allow DeLorme to simultaneously capture high quality images and digital elevation data using a unique combination of high-resolution digital imagery and LIDAR.
DeLorme Publishing, a leading innovator in digital mapping and geospatial data collection and distribution, has purchased two powerful airborne sensors from Leica Geosystems – the Leica ADS40 Airborne Digital Sensor and Leica ALS40 Airborne Laser Scanner. The two systems will give DeLorme, a mapping software and navigation hardware provider, the advantage of simultaneously capturing high quality images and digital elevation data using a unique combination of high-resolution digital imagery and LIDAR (light detection and ranging).
The complete airborne platform, named TopoBird, includes a specially equipped twin engine turboprop aircraft that will house the Leica ALS40 and ADS40.
