Nearmap can help construction clients at every stage of a project.
*** The Beginning
Nearmap is not stopping with its Vertical, Panoramic and Oblique imagery. “This is only the beginning where location content is headed,” Agresta asserts.
Next year, the company will introduce its Digital Surface Model and Nearmap 3D imagery. Nearmap 3D allows for immersive visualization much like a video game, and when used with Digital Surface Model users can view surface areas, make decisions faster and deploy resources with greater efficiency. Nearmap is now capturing this reality using HyperCamera 2, a specialized camera system that catches images via every angle. “This is the future of the imagery world,” Agresta says.
So far, he notes, the company has already captured dozens of cities that include Boston, Las Vegas, Chicago and New York. “Now we’re processing all this imagery and creating a 3D immersive visualization,” Agresta says.
