Vricon partners with award-winning Apollo Mapping

Vricon, a leading provider of highly accurate photorealistic 3D products and elevation data of the earth, today announced it is partnering with Apollo Mapping, whose mission is to craft geospatial solutions to meet their customers’ unique needs. This partnership provides a new means for customers of geospatial products to gain easy access to Vricon’s offerings.

Customers now can order Vricon imagery through Apollo Mapping using Apollo’s Image Hunter search engine tool that helps clients find Vricon products featuring areas around the globe. Minimum order sizes are only 100 square kilometers, making Vricon products far more accessible and affordable for smaller organizations and businesses.

“We are pleased to be able to offer Vricon products through Apollo Mapping, as it helps us provide our geospatial products to a far broader customer set,” said Magnus Brege, Vricon CEO. “We’ve not had the means to offer smaller areas of interest to engineers, business owners, and academics—Apollo Mapping is helping to make that happen today.”

In addition to Vricon’s traditional Data Suite, Vricon launched its new 5-meter Digital Surface Model and Digital Terrain Model products, which now are available through Apollo Mapping. Prior to the partnership, Vricon customers could order elevation products with only 50-centimeter resolution, and Vricon no longer offers its 10-meter resolution elevation products.

“We are pleased to feature Vricon data and provide their high-value digital elevation models through our platform. Their 50-centimeter and 5-meter DSM and DTM products provide our clients with exciting new options,” adds Brock McCarty, Apollo’s “Map Wizard.”
