Intergeo is the world’s leading conference trade fair for geodesy, geoinformation and land management. With over half a million event website users and over 16,000 visitors from 92 countries at Intergeo itself, it is one of the key platforms for industry dialogue around the world.

Previously, it was hardly possible to automatically align thermal images into a mosaic. Low contrast values of some frames caused the errors of automatic images alignment within the mosaic. Now, a new technology uses both thermal and visible spectrum camera images for alignment is developed. This technology provides high precision of overlap and allows to georeference IR images.

Agisoft PhotoScan photogrammetric processing results in:

• Visible spectrum orthophoto mosaic generation (GeoTIFF)
• Thermal images mosaic creation (GeoTIFF)

It is possible to view georeferenced data of thermal survey with Sputnik GIS.

The latest version of Sputnik GIS and a dataset (935 Mb) are available to download.
