Unlock your Airphoto ArchivesValuable archived information remains untapped, but when digitally scanned and properly geo-referenced, this information can brought to life. Reveal hidden patterns, gain a deeper understanding and make better decisions with HAP.

From Terabytes to TerrainThe automation and streamlined workflow in HAP lets you focus on quality while it processes your archive. Plus, with multiple HAP licenses you can distribute QA across your team to take on even the biggest projects.

HAP Can Handle ItPrepare historical data and set up workflows to create perfectly aligned ortho-mosaics for use in GIS and geo-image applications. Start realizing the value of your vast archives of historical airphoto imagery today and turn hundreds of thousands of archived images into GIS ready digital mosaics.

Historical Airphoto ProcessingBigger workflows and larger projects multiply the complexity of your work, but they don’t need to bring increased difficulty and you shouldn’t have to sacrifice quality as a result. PCI Geomatics’ custom, production workflow for historical airphotos connects and automated many of your project tasks and completes these complex jobs efficiently and accurately.

Make Yesterday’s Imagery Work For You TodayHistorical aerial photography archives contain valuable information that remains untapped. Digitally scanned and properly geo-referenced historical aerial imagery can bring this information to life, making it possible to analyze/visualize the historical information in modern GIS systems. These historical images can reveal hidden patterns, provide a deeper understanding of changes over time thus leading to better decision making.

Automated Processing“Our previous workflow was very manually intensive. In a 12 month duration, we were able to produce 4,000 individual orthos. Using the new Production Workflow from PCI, we can produce 300 orthos per week, or over 15,000 per year (4 X improvement, with significant reduction in the need for operator intervention).”

Using over 30 years of remote sensing knowledge, the HAP production workflow streamlines historic airphoto processing to produce extraordinary results. HAP is easily configured to meet your unique operational needs, letting you focus on business instead of pushing buttons.
