Phase One PAS280 large format Camera system

The PAS 280 4-Band Camera System manufactured by Phase One is a high-performance aerial imaging solution ideal for large-area mapping projects and corridor mapping projects, enhancing aerial mapping capabilities. WingMan will acquire RGBN aerial imagery utilizing the Phase One PAS280 Large format Camera system, making it a great choice for those interested in PAS280 camera leasing.

• Combines dual 90mm RGB lenses with a 50mm NIR lens.

• Enables simultaneous capture of Red, Green, Blue, and Near-Infrared (NIR) bands, essential for comprehensive photogrammetry services.

• 2 frames per second capture rate

iXM-RS280F – 90mm RGB –

WIDE Mode --20,150w x 14,118 pix

STRIP Mode --14,118w x 20,150 pix

iXM-R150 – 50mm NIR Achromatic – 14,204 x 10,652 pixels

AP610 (IMU – 57)

The highest accuracy iXController features an integrated Applanix GNSS-Inertial system, making it ideal for aerial mapping and photogrammetry services. 

• The Applanix 610 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is a high-performance GNSS-Inertial Measurement Unit designed specifically for aerial mapping and direct georeferencing. This advanced 610 IMU provides a range of benefits that are essential for demanding aerial survey missions:

• It delivers extremely accurate position and orientation data for airborne sensors, optimizing the use of PAS280 camera leasing.

• The system reduces the number of control points required for aerotriangulation, significantly decreasing both fieldwork and processing time.

• Post-processed accuracy includes:

• Horizontal: 2–5 cm RMS

• Vertical: 5–10 cm RMS

• Roll & Pitch: 0.0025°

• True Heading: 0.005°

The SOMAG GSM4000 mount is a premier stabilization platform designed for large-format airborne sensors, making it an excellent choice for aerial mapping projects. When used in conjunction with the PAS 280, which is available for PAS280 camera leasing, this system offers significant advantages that enhance image quality, operational efficiency, and data reliability. By maintaining a perfectly level sensor orientation, the GSM 4000 minimizes the need for excessive image overlap, thereby increasing flight efficiency over extensive areas—crucial for effective photogrammetry services.

• 3-axis hydraulic gimbal system with four cylinders and two servo pumps.

• Compensates for roll, pitch, and yaw in real time.

• Achieves residual deviation from perpendicular as low as 0.02° RMS with IMU support.

WingMan will utilize the AOI or Corridor centerline KML/SHP file provided by the client to design the flight plan required for aerial mapping and image acquisition. We employ iX Suite (Plan, Flight, Process), Global Mapper, and Google Earth software to develop detailed flight plans for our photogrammetry services. Additionally, we coordinate with aircraft partners to obtain quotes for PAS280 camera leasing for image acquisition, ensuring that clients receive precise project acquisition and service cost estimates.

The mission is loaded into IX Process, which preprocesses IIQ files into stitched, uncompressed TIF formats, making them Ortho-ready (Level-1) imagery suitable for aerial mapping. These images are then ingested into advanced photogrammetry software like Trimble's Inpho or SimActive's Correlator 3D to generate the final Orthorectified (Level-2) mosaic image tiles. By applying refined exterior orientation (EO) processing through Applanix POSPAC software and utilizing our highest accuracy Applanix IMU, we significantly reduce the need for ground control, enhancing our photogrammetry services. Additionally, we offer PAS280 camera leasing for those looking to improve their mapping projects.

The Flight Architect is responsible for ensuring the quality and accuracy of final edits, data compression, and the tiling of project information related to aerial mapping. This is achieved using software such as Global Mapper and Google Earth, alongside utilizing photogrammetry services and PAS280 camera leasing.

Conduct the custom installation of our PAS280 system, along with options for Tandem LiDAR, which includes mounting, electrical setup, cabling, controllers, and monitors, to enhance our aerial mapping and photogrammetry services. Additionally, explore our PAS280 camera leasing options for flexible solutions.
