Emergency Services
Access Points
Use the aerial photography to locate access points to public buildings, properties, parks, fields etc that aren't marked on maps. Finding access to an incident site could be vital for emergency services.
Asset Management
Aerial photography can be used to monitor and evaluate assets of various kinds. Using high resolution imagery it is possible to see street furniture, road markings and other features in a matter of moments without having to visit the area.
Command and Control
Use aerial photography alongside mapping to track and deploy resources more efficiently. Combine aerial photography with realtime GPS to track your resources and develop an informed picture of the surrounding area of an incident.
Contingency Planning
Planning for an event or major incident using aerial photography enables an accurate 'real-world' picture to be built-up helping to manage from conception to realisation. A complete knowledge of the area can speed up response times and help to avoid potential obstacles.
Crime Analysis
Using aerial photography as part of a GIS package allows the overlaying of important data. Highlight problem areas or crime black spots and see exactly what the underlying area looks like.
Emergency Planning
Aerial photography gives the use the ability to see the land as a photograph rather than a series of lines commonly associated with traditional mapping. Use this to highlight potential problems that may affect emergency response times.
Emergency Services
Aerial photography allows the viewing of your constituancy or catchment area in a real life environment allowing planning to be carried out much more efficiently.
Evacuation Routes
Plan routes for evacuating various situations and base your decisions on real world images to ensure the most effective and efficient routes available.
Event Monitoring
Monitoring events on any scale has its difficulties. Use aerial photography to view your site and the surrounding area to simplify the task and ensure that the most informed decisions are made based on the most up to date information available.
Facility and Amenity Identification
Use aerial photography to identify facilities and amenities in particlar catchment areas or localities. This could be of particular interest to estate agents or property developers.
Fleet Monitoring
Combine aerial imagery with modern GPS tracking systems to see exactly where your fleet is at this particular time. Give guidance to your drivers and ensure that they get to their destination on time via the most fuel efficient route.
GPS Intergration
The integration of aerial photography and GPS has a range of uses from static map making to real-time asset tracking. The combination of GPS and aerial photography is a powerful combination of data used by both ramblers right through to the MOD.
Hazard Assessment
View how certain hazards will affect different environments and areas and how the location of the source will depend on the type or hazard being assessed.
Incidence Response
Decide on the best route to take to an incident before you leave by viewing the land on screen. This aid could help cut response times and potentially save lives in the process.
Modelling and Prediction
Aerial photography, height data including terrain and LiDAR are all invaluable in modelling and prediction, including pollution, noise, light, flooding etc.
Proximity Analysis
The position of assests to one another and other objects or hazards can be important. Aerial photography can show this in such a way that a tradional map cannot.
Resource Management
Effective management of resources is paramount to every business; aerial photography can assist in showing distance, position, quanity and proximity of various resources.
Risk Assessment
Plan the possible risks of any situation by adding GIS data to aerial photography, allowing information rich decisions to be made in a fraction of the time of visiting the locations and surveying the area.
Scene of Crime
Police, legal practictions and insurance companies all use aerial photography to assess, reconstruct, visualise and demonstrate how and where and crime has taken place.
Scene of Incident
Police, legal practictions and insurance companies all use aerial photography to assess, reconstruct, visualise and demonstrate how and where and incident has taken place.
Security
At the top of many an agenga, Security is ever increasing, aerial photogrpahy is being used to assess risk, monitor and plan events and manage emergency situations.
Site Identification
Property developers find aerial phototgraphy an invaluable resource in the identification of potential development sites. Historic aerial photography is also used in conjuction to assess how a site has changed.
Visualisation
Aerial photography can be used to create a powerful and interesting visualisation of and area for any purpose. A photograph always provides a more striking impact than other types of data.
