Many towns in the CitiPIX (Kodak) aerial photography coverage areas have reaped the benefits of this latest flyover.  Portland, South Portland, Falmouth, Freeport, Westbrook are among the growing list of municipalities to use this new imagery...and now more sign up...

The Town of Scarborough and the City of South Portland also recently contracted BCI to map their entire towns at the 5’ contour level.  This map data along with digital orthophotos will be available to all the towns departments assisting them in managing the towns’ assets and growth.  Bradstreet will use digital imagery captured on April 29, 2001 by Kodak Global Imaging.   Under contract with the Greater Portland Council of Governments (GPCOG), Kodak supplied thousands of digital images along with the necessary aircraft positional data enabling precise maps to be compiled for each of the towns covered by the imagery.

The Town of Cumberland is the latest town to sign a contract for photogrammetric mapping with BCI.  These maps will form the basis for the towns Geographic Information System or GIS.     GASB34, a federal accounting standard relating to publicly funded infrastructure created the original need for this mapping.  The many other uses for the map data include water / sewer planning, zoning, wetlands, E-911 viewshed analysis, island and waterfront management and tax mapping.
