Dismantle your photo lab, gain valuable facilities space, cut the laborious and timeconsuming steps of film processing and scanning, shorten your total production time for orthophoto and map generation and save money. Enter the digital age, the next generation of airborne remote sensing and photogrammetry: JAS 150.

 

The reliable Jena Airborne Scanner (JAS) together with its photogrammetric processing software JenaStereo provides high spatial resolution, very high positional accuracy and very high radiometric resolution digital data. The system is based on the pushbroom principle, which proved its superiority over the old film-based technologies in many space-based remote sensing systems. Developed for photogrammetry, mapping and airborne remote sensing the JAS represents a superior and affordable solution.

 

 

 

 

Features

The JAS 150 represents state-of-the-art technology. The sensor's advanced space proven construction enables the simultaneous acquisition of nine bands of information: five panchromatic CCD lines capture photogrammetric and 3D information, while four lines capture data in the red, green, blue and near-infrared band, only one flight is needed for multispectral, panchromatic, coloured orthophotos and data for the digital surface model. Digital data acquisition together with the software suite Jena-Stereo allows fast and near automatic data processing. The costs of ownership are significantly lower compared to film cameras: no film processing, no scanning, less time from acquisition of the data to the results and lower labour cost.

 

Best Value for Money:

Affordable high-productive camera with superior performance, price tag considerably less than most digital competitors:
Very reliable device from an experienced developer of spaceborne and airborne cameras and pushbroom scanners.
Digital data acquisition enables full digital workflow with less labour costs.
More flying days in marginal weather, longer flying hours and better aircraft utilisation.
Reduction of fixed costs in production, no scanner and other equipment necessary.
No additional costs for repeated data exploitation.
Dense automatic DEM data extraction.
Very high photosensitivity allows flying under certain cloudy conditions.

 

Highest Resolution:

Up to 17,3 cm from 4000m flight altitude, real 5cm ground pixel resolution at aircraft possible airspeed and achievable flight attitudes of above 1000 meters with the JAS 150. Even at flight attitudes of 6000m a resolution of 26cm is possible with a swath width of 3000m. High accurate DEM up to 50cm vertical accuracy can be generated. True Orthophoto Geometry: The near-orthogonal view allows digital coloured true orthophotos for inexpensive full automatic work-flow.

 

No Blind Spots:

Five different stereo angles avoid any blind spots in flight direction.

 

Digital Advantages:

Better dynamic range and better radiometry than film cameras means better interpretability. Perfect stereo angles result in very precise surface and terrain models.
