Benefits of Spatial Video Mapping

Low cost, robust, lightweight, easy to use field data collection system

Video is an intuitive data source and so appeals to a wider audience

Vide data can be simply tagged with position information or calibrated so that measurements of objects within the frame can be extracted

Spatial video data can be readily shared within same organisation enabling repeated examination and multidisciplinary analysis.

Video verification of asset inventory and existing database records.

Video provides a very rich data source when integrated within a Geographical Information System (GIS).

Spatial encoding of video is automated, so a potential user can usually learn all basic aspects and become operational in a few hours

Create multimedia maps without the necessity and monotony of scanning photos and manually linking files.

Systems are designed to be field ready and so are robust, lightweight and portable requiring very little power.

Rapid set-up time and absolute minimal training required.

Used by remote sensing personel to collect sample ground-truth from either airborne, ground or water based platforms.

Industry standard data and so can be integrated with other datasets and indeed other mapping and imaging systems such as ESRI (ArcView) and MapInfo Corp (MapInfo).

Spatial video and camera systems can be customised for any particular application. almost any image quality and positional accuracy is available depending on user requirements and budget.
