Image Quality Images will have an unobstructed view of the ground. In controlled airspace around
airports, etc., and in areas of rapid elevation changes, the image footprint sizes and
resolutions may vary. There may be varying degrees of ground illumination and color
variations due to lighting and cloud shadows.
Measurement Accuracy <0.5% measurement error, excluding user pixel selection error
Pixel Placement Accuracy Pictometry provides a visualization system and therefore does not certify image
accuracy. However, some Pictometry customers have done their own certification on
the Pictometry data after delivery and have shared their results. On average, customers
have been seeing better than 1.0-meter RMS error at a 95% confidence level (LAMAS
1:1200) for orthogonal imagery over relatively flat terrain'or in areas with accurate
elevation data, and 2.0-meter RMS error at a 95% confidence level (LAMAS 1:2400)
for more varied terrain or in areas with poor elevation data. However, Pictometry does
not guarantee these accuracies and your results may vary.
Sensor Orientation Pictometry utilizes an IIvli3 (Inertial Measurement Unit), ground station post-corrected
differential GPS, and Kalman filtering to achieve a high degree of positional and
drrectional accuracy.
Sensor Positional Accuracy mean I Scm absolute

including customer provided DEM data), resulting in geographically square pixels
aligned to a rectilinear grid. This grid can be one of any number of coordinate
systems, including Lattude/Longitude, State Plane, UTM, and more. The desired
coordinate system should be specified in the contract, or a default coordinate system
will be used.
Image Export JFIF (JPEG), TIFF, BMP
EFS software can be utilized to export the images into any of the above industry-
standard formats. The orthogonal images can optionally be re-projected during this
export process, and an associated geography file can be created as well for use in
importing the images into GIS mapping software.
Image Tiling Individual orthogonal images are edge-feathered and mosaiced to produce orthogonal
image tiles with tle sizes selected to balance single image coverage as well as
manageability of open images. These orthogonal Iles provide continuous coverage
across the area of interest. Wlule some color balancing is done, these orthogonal tiles
are not fully radiometrically balanced or edge-matched.
Oblique Images
• Sensor Size Pixels: 4008 x 2672 (or 3208 x 2b72 for some Community level imagery) in a
Landscape orientaton.
Image Format Industry-standard image format with proprietary image trailer, including JFIF' (JPEG),
TIFF, and BMP.
Image Quality Images will have an unobstructed view of the ground. In controlled airspace around
airports, etc., and in areas of rapid elevation changes, the image footprint sizes and
resolutons may vary. There maybe varying degrees of ground illuminaton and color
variations due to lighting and cloud shadows. Due to the nature of oblique aerial
photography, there may. also be artifacts such as haze and glint and glare caused by
reflected sunlight.
Measurement Accuracy . <0.75% measurement error, excluding user pixel selecton error
Pixel Placement Accuracy Pictometry provides a visualizaton system and therefore does not certify image
accuracy. However, some Pictometry customers have done their own certficaton on
the Pictometry data after delivery and have shared their results. On average, customers
have been seeing better than 2.0-meter RMS error at a 95% confidence level (NMAS
1:2400) for oblique imagery over relatvely flat terrain or in areas with accurate
elevation data, and 4.0-meter RMS error at a 95% confidence level (LAMAS 1:4800)
for more varied terrain or in areas with poor elevaton data. However, Pictometry does
not guarantee these accuracies and your results may vary.
Sensor Orientation Pictometry utIizes an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), ground staton post-corrected
differental GPS, and Kalman filtering to achieve a high degree of positonal and
directonal accuracy.

Notes
1. The existing National Map Accuracy Standards focus on conventional analog aerial photography products. When
used for digital mapping products, it is necessary to specify the approximate image scale (e.g. 1:1200) when stating
NMAS requirements.
2. Pictometry's orthogonal images provide the coordinate accuracy fulfilling most planemetric requirements, however,
Pictometry data is not intended for authoritative definitive mapping or surveying replacement. If there is a need for
authoritative mapping products, additional work is required by licensed individuals in order to certify Pictometry's
orthogonal imagery. Alternatively, a separate, authoritative orthogonal image capture can be done and those
orthogonal images used inside of Pictometry. Our oblique images are unique to Pictometry and are intended to
provide data not available elsewhere and lateral views with more visual information, such as building stock analysis.
In Pictometry the orthogonal and oblique images are linked for your convenience and additional study. With a few
clicks you can fmd the zevealing lateral views, height measurements, and other information afforded by the oblique
images while using the coordinate accuracy afforded by the orthogonal images.
