- Details
- Created on July 16, 2009
“PCI Geomatics has proven that Ground Control Points (GCPs) are not required to correct RapidEye data and achieve accuracy within 1 pixel using the Geomatica software,” said Dr. Philip Cheng, Senior Scientist at PCI Geomatics. “This allows the user to generate high accuracy ortho/mosaic images anywhere in the world - instantly.”
“We are pleased that PCI has come through as the first geo-imaging software provider to specifically support RapidEye's level 1B data product,” commented Frederik Jung-Rothenhaeusler, RapidEye's Head of Product Development. “We are also impressed that the PCI software can provide such precise locational accuracy with their software, which is of obvious importance to our customers.”
