Ordnance Survey Partner Getmapping provides Oblique Imagery for Local Authority Planners and Developers
Hampshire, United Kingdom, March 21, 2011 The latest technological advances in aerial photography by Getmapping (http://www2.getmapping.com) have made oblique imagery available, bringing the landscape of the UK to life in new and exciting ways.
Providing beautiful images of the land from the air, aerial photography has become a crucial part of local authority planning applications, as it is used by developers to show how new construction projects will affect the surrounding area. Now, oblique imagery, which views the land at an angle, brings these images to life in a more detailed and more useful way.
Oblique imagery shot from the air is fast becoming the ´must have‘ image product to accompany vertical aerial photography, and is often seen as an essential element, especially in planning applications. The oblique imagery available from Getmapping offers a vast database of stunning and detailed pictures shot with the company‘s state-of-the-art A3 camera technology. Delivered through its Multivision software it is part of a powerful tool for viewing, 3D analysis and measurement of the built and natural environment.
Much valued by local authorities, developers and asset management, oblique perspective imagery provides a richer view of the world when added to the more familiar vertical aerial photography. Working closely with Bath Spa University, Getmapping has pioneered new oblique image capture techniques and equipment that has brought the process into the 21st Century.
Oblique imagery for many UK towns and cities is already available with Getmapping. So, whether you are interested in a new take on aerial photography for aesthetic purposes, or whether you need to add a new angle to a planning application for a new development project, Getmapping has a vast database of images that you can download.
Getmapping is the ultimate resource for oblique imagery.
