Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing

Satellite and aerial imagery are extremely valuable sources of current information. The wide range of sensors available on the market today, combined with powerful data processing systems, produces reliable and accurate maps in record time, thereby reducing or eliminating timely field surveys.

Infoterra France develops its own photogrammetric suite (Pixel Factory™) of high-quality, timely and flexible solutions. The Pixel Factory™ is a revolutionary system that automatically process data acquired using a multiple choice of sensors, offering the best of both worlds in aerial or satellite imagery by combining:

		satellite images:	global coverage, rapid delivery
		aerial photography:	high resolution, flexibility and precision

Thanks to this entirely digital, highly automated production chain, we can rapidly create multi-resolution components including Digital Terrain Models, Digital Surface Models, Orthophotos and TrueOrthos™ among others.

The Pixel Factory™ is operated by highly-skilled staff in two production centres (Toulouse and Sophia-Antipolis).

Each production site is equipped with significant computing power and on-line storage spaces that create thousands of square kilometres of mapping products for customers specialising in town planning, agriculture, defence, telecommunications and many other fields.

The Pixel Factory™ is also operated by Infoterra France clients around the world, who have chosen to adopt this unique end-to-end processing system to generate their own value-added products.
