, a developer of photogrammetry software, has announced that Wantman Group, Inc. has completed a 9 square mile UAV project using Correlator3D. Initially meant to be acquired using manned aircraft, the dataset comprised 3,056 images with full processing completed in under 2 days.
“You might think a UAS is not the most efficient way to cover such a large area,” said Mr Eric Andelin, UAS Program Manager at Wantman. “However, if time is a factor, a UAS on-site becomes more efficient than an airplane in a hangar. For such large projects, SimActive is the way to go for efficient processing.”
“Wantman has the expertise to acquire data using both manned aircraft and UAV,” said Dr Philippe Simard, President of SimActive. “Correlator3D™ allows users the flexibility to rapidly process data, regardless of acquisition platform.”
