the project manager in need of land use, physical features, surface models,

and volumetric data. Some common application include:

Land use studies

Vegetation analysis

Large scale wall displays

Court exhibits

Customized maps

Aerial photography can be provided to you as a hard copy or digital

product that is ready to be viewed using standard software. ERG also

maintains a large film library to meet your needs for commercial imagery

or historical data.

Planimetric / Topographic Data

Photogrammetric surveys provide an efficient and cost-effective means of

developing topographic mapping for your project.

Any project involving design and construction requires current and

accurate surface mapping. Photogrammetric surveys provide an efficient

and cost-effective means of developing topographic mapping for your

project. Common applications include:

Engineering and design

7

Cut/Fill calculations

Storm water management

Impervious surface determination

ALTA surveys

FIRM updates

Volumetric computations.

Following our quality control procedures, data is delivered as plotted

maps or in MicroStation, AutoCAD, Esri, and other popular digital

formats or paper/mylar plots.

Digital Orthophotography

ERG’s knowledge of principles and practices in photogrammetry is

complemented with the use of the latest technologies and equipment.

ERG’s technicians’ knowledge of principles and practices in

photogrammetry is complemented with the use of all industry standard

equipment including Airborne Global Positioning System (AGPS), flight

management software, softcopy photogrammetry systems and

stereoplotters.

Through stereoscopic measurement and autocorrelation processing of the

photography, a digital elevation model (DEM) is produced, resulting in a

grid of points defining the shape of the earth’s surface. The image scans,

ground control and DEM data are combined via software to “wrap” the

perspective photo onto the DEM data. Once the image is resampled,

software is used to blend the images together to form a continuous,

seamless image. The resulting orthographically correct imagery can be

provided digitally for viewing at various scales, or plotted on film or paper

at a scale suitable for your project.

LiDAR

ERG uses LiDAR technology for large projects that require information

quickly and for areas that are inaccessible or difficult to measure using

other methods.

Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is a laser system that sends out

narrow pulses or beams of lights. The returning light is then counted and

processed by a receiver.

LiDAR in an aerial platform collects information that defines the surface

of the earth by sweeping back and forth as the aircraft is in motion. The

resulting point data forms a surface model showing the heights of all

buildings and other objects on the ground, as well as a bare earth surface.

The bare earth data set can be used to support the production of digital

orthophotography or contours.

ERG uses LiDAR technology for large projects that require information

quickly and for areas that are inaccessible or difficult to measure using

other methods. LiDAR can also penetrate tree and vegetation cover. It is

unaffected by sunlight or temperature, making it possible to collect data

at night.

AGRICULTURAL MAPPING & ANALYTICS

GIS application in agriculture has been playing an increasingly important

role in crop production throughout the world by helping farmers in

increasing production, reducing costs, and managing their land resources

more efficiently. GIS application in agriculture such as agricultural

mapping plays a vital role in monitoring and management of soil and

irrigation of any given farm land. GIS agriculture and agricultural mapping

act as an essential tools for management of agricultural sector by acquiring

and implementing the accurate information into a mapping environment.

GIS application in agriculture also helps in management and control of

agricultural resources. GIS agriculture technology helps in improvement of

the present systems of acquiring and generating GIS agriculture and

resources data.

ERG uses GIS application in agriculture sector such for improving present method of acquiring and generating agricultural and resources data.

The company uses different spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions for:

Crop mapping yield estimation

Crop assessment and Crop health
