Blom UK – Applications of Unique Aerial Imaging Tools

  • Rating12345

Blom UK has announced further benefits through the company’s unique cost-effective and time-saving suite of tools packaged in the recently-launched BlomMETRO technology. The complexities of data capture, especially whilst captured in a high speed, high altitude environment, provides many challenges. Combined with an economic austerity, Blom UK launched the unique package combined within the BlomMETRO suite, to provide an even better set of customer-centric solutions within the aerial imaging and digital mapping sectors, as Blom UK’s LiDAR Manager Hamish Grierson comments:

“Blom has a long history of owning and operating a range of digital cameras and sensors across Europe. Traditionally, these instruments would be run independently, even if multiple formats were required.”

“The demand for higher quality resources, and the need for improved data capture efficiency, has seen the long-established techniques of aerial surveying put under the microscope recently.”

“Some of the immediate benefits of using the dual capture data systems within BlomMETRO technology include reduced costs, reduced carbon footprint (as our flight time is lowered), faster delivery of data to our clients, as well as data of the same age within both photographic and LiDAR capture, due to our introduction of further innovations.”
