Maintaining an accurate and current forest inventory database can be problematic in areas where frequent change and property acquisition often occurs.
Imagery derived from aerial and satellite sensors is typically used to aid foresters in updating their available stand inventory through the use of orthoquads, image maps and conventional GIS vector database updates.
Imagery products from Sanborn provide an effective medium for updating forest maps and base map features such as roads and streams. Sanborn uses new collections and archived images to manually and automatically extract feature information for a wide variety of clients. In fact, Sanborn pioneered automated feature extraction, and is actively involved in the development of new geo-spatial mapping tools and methods. Combining our unparalleled experience in change detection and image processing techniques, Sanborn can update spatial information economically and accurately.
