Sentera Expands Mapping Capabilities with New Drone System

Sentera’s ultra-high-resolution RGB sensor – the 65R – is now compatible with its PHX fixed-wing drone, lowering the cost and time required to produce accurate digital surface models and imagery products for several industries, including agriculture, construction, infrastructure and environmental monitoring. 65R’s global shutter and fast frame rate combine to quickly produce exceptional imagery, free from distortions produced by electronic rolling shutter cameras and with a rugged “no moving parts” design ideal for the sometimes-challenging physical environment onboard a drone.

With 65 million pixels per frame of global shutter imagery, the 65R is an outstanding tool to produce 3D products like digital surface models. DSMs have become a critical factor in how businesses make decisions, from planning and development to natural resource management to disaster mitigation. With 65R, the DSM and the RGB imagery product can both be produced from the same dataset.
