Fugro EarthData, formerly known as Earthdata International, was acquired in 2007 by Furgo NV and now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Furgo NV. The company provides photogrammetric mapping, digital orthophotography, environmental mapping, GIS, and training services that support a wide range of land and information management activities. Fugro transforms data from a wide range of aerial sensors into spatially accurate map products and GIS datasets. The firm is able to combine the flexibility and accuracy of mapping technology with the speed and power of Pixel Factory processing in order to deliver robust surface models and orthorectified imagery in a fraction of the time required when using conventional mapping methods. The firms imagery solutions help to support a wide range of applications including infrastructure planning, public works, agricultural monitoring, natural resource management and engineering, disaster response, property assessment, national security, and coastal resources management. Fugro offers a suite of sensors that expand customer options and data affordability. The firms imagery products include digital elevation models and panchromatic (black-and-white), color, and color-infrared orthoimagery. Stereopairs of panchromatic, color, and color-infrared imagery are also available for later 3D planimetric and topographic data compilation.
