Aerial Photography
Aerial photography is the traditional basis for many of Blom’s products and services. Large format digital or analogue cameras are mounted in twin-engined aircraft and images positioned using Global Positioning System (GPS) with Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) and where available, active networks, providing camera positioning and image orientation data, improving quality and reducing costs.
