Geo™

• Radiometrically corrected map oriented image

• Data Source– IKONOS or GeoEye-1 (OrbView-3 archive

only)• Accuracy

– .5m products have a 5m CE90 and 1m products are 15m CE90

– Geo accuracy is achieved with on-board altitude and ephemeris sensors and do not use Ground Control Points

• Shipped with the sensor camera model in rational polynomial coefficient (RPC) format – Block adjustment, orthorectification, and

other photogrammetric processing can be performed using the RPC camera model

15


GeoProfessional™• Data Source

– IKONOS or GeoEye-1 (OrbView-3 archive only) • Terrain corrected imagery, orthorectified is

performed by the GeoEye– Mosaicing and color/tone balancing is performed for

DRA off imagery • Accuracy

– Controlled by CE90– Correlates to the accuracy of DEM

• Two levels of accuracy– GeoProfessional

• Off-the-Shelf– Precision

• Increased positional accuracy using ground control and high-quality elevation models

• Upgraded product for an additional cost– Both are suitable for feature extraction, change

detection, base mapping and other similar applications• DEM

– GeoEye uses NED DEM within Continental US (CONUS)– Outside CONUS, GeoEye will use or acquire equivalent

DEM

16


GeoStereo™• Data Source

– IKONOS or GeoEye-1 (OrbView-3 archive only) • Two images taken on the same orbital pass• Projections

– Epi-polar or map projection– Those desiring pan-sharpening should request

map projection• Camera Model

– RPC camera model supports block adjustment, three-dimensional stereo extraction, DEM generation, orthorectification, and other photogrammetric operations

• Two levels of accuracy– GeoStereo

• Off-the-Shelf– Precision

• Increased positional accuracy using ground control and high-quality elevation models

• Upgraded product for an additional cost
