Pan-Euroipean helicopter-based service offers remote IR inspection of sites of historical interest and IR signature analysis of different ground terrain
In conjunction with several leading helicopter manufacturers, Cedip Infrared Systems has launched a comprehensive airborne IR measurement and image gathering service.
Operating throughout Europe, the new service provides a complete solution (helicopter, measurement system and experienced measurement team) for applications including remote IR inspection of sites of historical interest and IR signature analysis of different ground terrain.
Installed into a stabilised gimball mount in the cockpit of a helicopter the multispectral sensing system provides real time data recording and processing capabilities.
Based upon Cedip's advanced Satir multispectral imaging system, an operator can remotely image and record high definition data from the visible to the LWIR region (1-12æm).
All images are recorded and cross-indexed with precise geographic reference data.
After recording, the Cedip measurement team uses proprietary software for aggregating images into a single high definition image of typically 5000x5000 pixels.
