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. , digital photogrammetry photogrammetry: see aerial and satellite photography. , raster spatial analysis (Data West Research Agency definition: see GIS glossary.) Analytical techniques to determine the spatial distribution of a variable, the relationship between the spatial distribution of variables, and the association of the variables of an area. , mosaicking and automated production workflows. Version 10.3 includes support for ESRIr ArcGISr Server Image Extension, as well as multi-sensor support through OrthoEngine for ArcGIS users. These users can now rely upon PCI's OrthoEngine technology to accurately and efficiently correct raw satellite imagery Satellite imagery consists of photographs of Earth or other planets made from artificial satellites. History
The first satellite photographs of Earth were made August 14, 1959 by the US satellite Explorer 6.
, opening new doors for the integration of remotely sensed imagery into GIS workflows.

"With over 27 years of experience in building image processing software, PCI has established itself as the imagery experts," said Peter Hazlett, Product Manager for Geomatica at PCI Geomatics.
