BuckEye
Designed specifically for light fixed and rotary wing aircraft, these are best-in-class fully integrated aerial imaging systems. Built around Flight Landata’s proprietary Precision Geo-Referenced Digital Airborne Camera System (PG-DACS) technology, the BuckEye family of products is standard production high-resolution digital photogrammetric instruments with precision georeference capabilities. Complete with multispectral and hyperspectral instrumentation, these system packages feature the:
- Finest spatial resolution achievable in aerial digital imagery
- Largest frame size of a single snapshot
- Fastest throughput and recording capacities for high temporal resolution and large area flyover
BuckEye sensor systems are seamlessly integrated with a differential corrected Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to provide better than 1 meter georeference accuracy. They are capable of acquiring large format color contiguous stereo pair sequences with high spatial resolution of down to 1 inch resolution. With recording rates of better than one frame every 2 seconds, BuckEye sensors are capable of recording thousands of digital images per flight at altitudes from a few hundred feet to higher than 10 thousand feet.
“The BuckEye sensor is currently available in two configurations the BuckEye 1A that is based on PG-DACS-22M (22 mega pixel frame size) digital camera technology and the BuckEye 1B which is based on PG-DACS 39M (39 mega pixel frame size) technology. Both the BuckEye 1A and BuckEye 1B sensors may be operated using available power from light fixed or rotary wing aircraft. An optional battery pack for applications for each sensor designed to accommodate situations where it is desirable to fly the sensor systems as self-contained cargo.”
