*New aerial images of Australia online*

26 August 2009
Australia: Fugro released a new on-line aerial image service for
professional business users such as surveyors, engineers, architects,
planners and developers.

Through this service, high resolution imagery of selected areas of
Australia can be viewed and purchased via the website www.fugroworld.com
and downloaded as a jpeg or ecw file to the desktop.

Images covering areas from 100m x 100m on the ground are being offered
from as little as AUD$5 and are ideal for views of small sites. Larger
image sizes are available up to 5km x 5km and are ready for download
with same day delivery.

The Fugro World Portal service is able to provide aerial imagery by
area, on-demand with payment and delivery online. The system includes
enhanced features such as an advanced search facility to allow website
visitors to quickly find an area thr ough a street name or location
coordinate.

Aerial images reveal much more information about an area than a map. The
images, viewed on-screen or printed at any size in colour, greatly
enhance presentations and allow more informed decisions to be made
without needing to visit the site.

The aerial imagery can be loaded directly into electronic mapping
systems and GIS. The high-resolution aerial images are ortho-rectified
to enable customers to display added features like street names and
mapped boundaries on-screen over the aerial imagery background.
