12 Identify Man-Made or Geologic Material Locate and classify man-made materials (metals, plastics, paints, fiberglass, asphalt, oil and various chemicals) and geologic minerals (clays, alteration, iron oxides, carbonates, and others) on the Earth s surface. Material identification at this resolution enables highconfidence decision-making with information not available from any other satellite imaging company.

13 Main Information of the Roof Roof materials Roof tilt angle Roof height The analysis is based on shortwave infrared data (SWIR), elevation data and our clever engineers!

14 See Through Smoke and Haze Get a clear view of the ground with SWIR wavelengths that penetrate smoke and haze, so you can make decisions with confidence in heat-of-the-moment situations.
