SimActive Software Used For Determining Financial Assistance After Dorian

Imagery Collected Both Before And After The Storm To Assess Damage

Drones have been essential in assessing damage caused by hurricane Dorian earlier this year. Florida-based Air Data Solutions has been using the Correlator 3D solution developed by SimActive to determine financial assistance in the wake of the storm. Aerial imagery was collected before the storm for pre-hurricane assessment and after for damage analysis.

A Phase One 100MP aerial camera owned by ADS was flown to gather high resolution images of the affected areas.  The data was then processed by SimActive software to create mosaics of orthophotos. The resulting geospatial data helped government authorities to calculate recovery aid funds.

“We have been impressed by the accuracy and speed of Correlator3D to support such a time-critical mission," said Don Cummins, president of ADS.  “Combined with a high-end aerial sensor, SimActive provides the best tool for emergency response.”
