orthomosaic

An orthomosaic is a detailed, accurate map created by stitching together many individual aerial photographs taken from drones or aircraft. These photos are processed to align perfectly, correcting distortions caused by angles and terrain, resulting in a single, seamless image. Orthomosaics are used in agriculture, construction, and surveying to analyze land features, monitor progress, and plan projects with precise spatial information. They provide a high-resolution, bird’s-eye view of an area, combining the detail of photos with the geographic accuracy needed for professional decision-making.
