The Optech CS-15000 introduces many new design features while significantly enhancing the original true Forward Motion Compensation (FMC) technology. More flexible than ever, the CS-15000 offers a field-replaceable shutter and interchangeable lenses to allow even greater operational efficiency. With a large footprint of 15,000 pixels across by 10,000 pixels along the flight line and a precision sensor, it provides the best of both worlds: large area coverage with extraordinary image quality. The superior image data, upgradeability and minimized downtime will ensure maximum aerial mapping business profitability.
“The Optech CS-15000 is a revolutionary new sensor product, born from the collaborative efforts of remote sensing technology, electronics and photogrammetry experts in our US, EU and Canadian offices,” said Maxime Elbaz, President of Optech, Inc. “The CS-15000 is not only the solution for the needs of wide-area mappers, it’s also an effective replacement for film-based aerial cameras. The large ground coverage and next-generation motion compensation technology will maximize the value of your investment.”
The Optech CS-15000 and other new camera products will be unveiled at the ASPRS 2012 Annual Conference in Sacramento, California, March 19-23. Optech also welcomes visitors to the Optech Camera Series workshop to be held at the conference venue, Room 307, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, March 20.
