The challenge
The monitoring service GeoMon offers combines acquisition (aerial photography via UAV), post-processing, analysis and cloud supply of the data. The main focus is on environmental issues in areas up to 10 km² and the need for high-resolution images (up to < 2cm/pixel). The GeoMon service is crucial for engineering companies, mining companies, the puplic sector and insurance companies.Heiko Störkel (Dipl.-Geograph/CEO) is responsible for management, sales, marketing, strategic focus and accounting. Sascha Heising (B.Sc. Geography/CTO) is responsible for technical matters, including hard-/software, procurement, GIS, data security and quality assurance.Additionally the team has three mentors: Dr. Irene Marzolff competent for geographic matters especially photogrammetric analysis and UAV missions and Dr. Manfred Kirschning in charge for management and business administration advice.
The solution
The used UAV needs GPS satellites for positioning and autonomous navigation. Also the small format aerial images close a gap between satellite images and aircraft-based photography. Furthermore GeoMon is able to analyze satellite images as well as all other aerial photos.
