Leica XPro - Post Processing Software

Data Processing at the speed of flight.

The Leica XPro line sensor workflow is straightforward to implement and easy to use for those familiar with the traditional analog frame processing. Most importantly, it produces the best results. Data quality Quality control tools indicate successful data capture mission, uniform workflow from download to orthophoto generation. Added accuracy Direct georeferencing, improved aerial triangulation, deliver at the speed of flight, stereo images or high res orthophotos.

Description

There is a perception that digital frame cameras produce imagery in much the same way as traditional analog frame cameras. Therefore, it was sometimes thought that the transition from analog photogrammetric processing to digital frame camera workflow would be easy and smooth, while the adaptation to line sensor workflow would involve significant relearning. Recent reports from customers using both frame and line sensor workflow are proof that these perceptions are wrong!

Large-format frame sensor configurations use multiple sensor heads. To produce a final frame requires several additional processing steps which include compensation of system specific parameters, co-registration of the multiple head patched data and the introduction of so-called "virtual frames".

In comparison, the Leica XPro line sensor workflow is straightforward to implement and easy to use for those familiar with the traditional analog frame processing. Most importantly, it produces the best results.
