A Three-Dimensionally Elevating Experience For Intermap Technologies


Intermap Technologies homepage Intermap Technologies' Intermap Federal Services, Inc. subsidiary has received a USD $1.2 million contract to provide 3D digital elevation data and other map products for an international project.

The Company is generating uniformly accurate elevation datasets under a new product line, TopoSAR, that serve a client’s need for large and difficult to access geographic regions and countries around the globe. The TopoSAR product is derived from data acquired via a latest generation radar satellite and processed by existing Intermap-proprietary radargrammetry software. Combined with ISO-certified editing processes and production facilities, the Company is able to quickly deliver elevation data that is superior in accuracy and detail to other products derived from space platforms. The Company has proactively remapped entire countries and built uniform national databases, called NEXTMap®, consisting of affordably priced elevation data and geometric images of unprecedented accuracy. Demand for NEXTMap data is growing as new commercial applications emerge within the GIS, engineering, automotive, GPS maps, insurance risk assessment, oil and gas, hydrology, renewable energy, environmental planning, wireless communications, transportation, aviation, and 3D visualization markets.
