In order to offer our clients the most accurate and efficient image-based solutions, TAG has incorporated Z/I Imaging's Digital Modular Camera (DMC) into our photogrammetric products development process. The DMC now serves as TAG’s primary imagery acquisition sensor replacing the RMK aerial camera. The DMC is a high-quality digital framing sensor that is unique in that it uses a modular design based on Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) matrix (frame) sensors to achieve high geometrical resolution together with multispectral capabilities. This multi-camera configuration provides color composite and panchromatic imagery with the same ground coverage. The DMC also includes a Complete Post-Processing System that converts raw DMC exposures into standard, central perspective images. Post-processing can be used to produce different output files from the raw DMC images such as: three full-resolution outputs at panchromatic, color (red, green, and blue), and color infrared. The DMC is the most appropriate technology for large and small-scale, precision engineering and mapping applications. To capture imagery with ground resolutions as fine as two inches, the DMC features Electronic Forward Motion Compensation and to ensure photogrammetric accuracy, the DMC is based on the same central perspective that is used by all existing high precision mapping cameras.
