Standard
Satellite Imagery
For the
experienced user, we provide our most flexible product, Standard
Imagery. Each Standard Image is radiometrically calibrated,
corrected for sensor and platform-induced distortions and mapped to
a cartographic projection. Standard Images are well suited for
visual analysis image classification and as a backdrop for GIS and
mapping applications that require a modest level of accuracy. More
sophisticated users can start with our Standard Imagery, apply their
own Digital Elevation data and ground control points and create very
accurate orthorectified imagery.
