On-Demand Mapping
A custom map of your area of interest. Our team receives the requirements of the customer, collects data, and processes the imagery. Some customers know the extent of the project area and image resolution that they need covered. If you are not sure about your requirements we can help you decide.
Remote Processing
Gonzo Earth specializes in helping people get their aerial imagery together as a map, from aerial images or video. We have lots of experience working with various types of acquired data; UAV, balloon, kite, fixed-wing, helicopter, and satellite.
Training
We help organizations collect their own aerial data. Instead of selling hardware, we help our customers use their own consumer-off-the-shelf (COTS) products. This is important, it brings the materials cost down for the customer, lowers the cost of doing business with Gonzo Earth, and empowers the customer to upgrade their own gear as new or lower cost technology is available.
While we provide training for commercial/industry/private organizations, GonzoEarth is a partner in several education programs.
Custom Shooting Scenarios
The capability to collect data at a targeted time of day or year. We can create temporal comparison examinations for your area of interest through this type of customization. Civic planning and environmental monitoring are just a few of the types of applications.
Some of the Gonzo Earth field mapping techniques are particularly amenable to crisis mapping. Some of this is accomplished by setting up gear scenarios that offer rapid acquisition with low cost and ubiquitous technology. Putting together a scalable operator environment that is fast and easy to understand is important to our crisis mapping services as well.
Output-Publish-Present
It is important to have flexibility in the output. Some customers need a simple image or poster, while others need an exact GIS format or want an enormous wall sized print. We prefer open interoperable data formats that allow the imagery to work with all types of softwares. Google Earth and the KML format provide an excellent free virtual globe environment to view the imagery as an overlay imagery layer. Imagery can also be prepared for mobile devices like iphone/android/blackberry.
