Vexcel Imaging announced that Dutch aerial survey company Slagboom & Peeters Aerial Surveys has purchased the very first UltraCam Dragon 4.2 hybrid aerial imaging and LiDAR system worldwide.
A long-standing customer of Vexcel Imaging, Slagboom & Peeters Aerial Surveys has built a strong reputation for precision, reliability, and professionalism in aerial photography since its founding in 1961. Operating from Teuge Airport in the Netherlands, the company executes projects worldwide, offering services from true orthophotos and stereo imagery to geo-oblique images, 3D models, and LiDAR. By continually investing in the latest technology, including multiple UltraCam systems such as the UltraCam Eagle 4.1 and UltraCam Osprey 4.1, as well as the complete UltraMap Suite, Slagboom & Peeters Aerial Surveys has secured its position as an industry leader known for quality and on-time delivery.
The UltraCam Dragon 4.2 is the most efficient hybrid aerial mapping system on the market, uniting advanced photogrammetry and LiDAR in one system. Its state-of-the-art camera architecture delivers an ultra-large image footprint, allowing operators to cover more ground in fewer flight lines and significantly reduce acquisition time. Two nadir (RGB and NIR) and four high-resolution oblique cameras each capture 19,136 x 12,736 pixels high-resolution imagery, while the integrated RIEGL VQ-680 Waveform LiDAR scanner adds dense, highly accurate 3D information operating at 2.4 MHz in a single pass.
