Aerial photography captured using specially developed aerial survey equipment, Bluesky's Nightsky photomaps will accurately record the location street lights, illuminated road signs and other night-time sources of light emission.
The light emission maps will also provide an accurate base for asset inventory, light pollution assessment and energy optimisation for electricity plants.
Additional applications of night-time survey images include measurement of illumination for energy consumption evaluations and additional intelligence to support innovative projects to 'dim' or even switch off selected street lights in an effort to save money and reduce carbon emissions.
Using advanced spatial queries and mapping techniques Bluesky Nightsky maps can also be used to provide an assessment of light pollution helping to reduce unnecessary illumination and focus lighting infrastructure where it is needed most.
