Using the DigitalGlobe
feature in StrataExplorer it is easy to preview and
download satellite and aerial photo images for your
project area. These images are provided via the Internet
from our DigitalGlobe partner. DigitalGlobe is a leading
global provider of commercial, high-resolution, world
imagery products sourced from their own advanced
satellite constellation.
There is a small fee for
downloading the images and prior to downloading the
images an account must be setup with GAEA. To setup your
company account all we need is a credit card to charge
for any images downloaded. We will then provide you with
an authorization code that you can enter in the
setup. To arrange an account please contact
us at
sales@strataexplorer.com.
Below are some examples
of typical image fees.
