3001's ADS40 Digital Camera by Leica Geosystems is Already Airborne.NEW ORLEANS New Orleans (ôr`lēənz –lənz, ôrlēnz`), city (2006 pop. 187,525), coextensive with Orleans parish, SE La., between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain, 107 mi (172 km) by water from the river mouth; founded & ATLANTA -- 3001, Inc., the geospatial company, is pleased to announce its new Leica ADS40 Aerial Digital Sensor has been delivered, installed and tested, and is already on assignment for the Southwest Florida Southwest Florida is a region of Florida located along its gulf coast, south of the Tampa Bay area, west of Lake Okeechobee and mostly north of the Everglades. It consists of five coastal counties from Manatee County south to Collier County, although it sometimes is considered to Water Management District (SWFWMD SWFWMD Southwest Florida Water Management District ). Steve Dicks, of the SWFWMD, is pleased with the progress on the job, and says, "We have found that the ADS40 provides excellent aerial imagery and allows us to simultaneously obtain natural color and color infrared data. 3001's ADS40 workflows also provide quicker turnaround of the imagery than we have been able to achieve with film-based digital orthophoto technologies. The result is increased levels of service to the District's internal and external customers." According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Dr. John Craig This article is about the Scottish mathematician. For other persons named John Craig, see John Craig (disambiguation). John Craig (1663–October 11, 1731) was a Scottish mathematician. of 3001, "The ADS40 is well-suited for applications that require a combination of traditional orthophotography outputs with remote sensing Deriving digital models of an area on the earth. Using special cameras from airplanes or satellites, either the sun's reflections or the earth's temperature is turned into digital maps of the area. products derived from the color and near-infrared bands also captured by the ADS40. It's a good choice for the Florida water management job and other natural resource applications such as environmental delineation and land use/land cover mapping." Richard McKay, Vice President of Sales, Leica Geosystems Leica Geosystems (formerly known as Wild Heerbrugg or just Wild) based in eastern Switzerland produces products and systems for surveying and geographical measurement (geomatics). GIS & Mapping, added, "Demonstrating a commitment to delivering imagery perfectly suited to customer needs, 3001 has continually selected Leica Geosystems sensors to power geospatial imaging. We are proud that 3001 added an ADS40 to its lineup, enabling it to offer a full range of imaging capabilities to meet the requirements of any project."
