Altum-PT integrates an ultra-high-resolution panchromatic imager, a new thermal imager, and five discrete spectral bands, for outputs at over two times the resolution of the previous Altum. The higher spatial resolution capabilities mean that in most cases, Altum-PT can be used from early emergence all the way to the end of the season, allowing for subtle change detection and providing high-quality data throughout the year.
What’s in the Box
1x Nadir Mounting Solution: For secure attachment of the Altum-PT sensor.
1x Dovetail: Facilitates easy and quick sensor attachment.
Key Features
Ultra-high-resolution panchromatic imager: Provides data outputs at 2.49 cm GSD from 120m, offering more than 2 times the resolution of current multispectral cameras.
Built-in 320 x 256 radiometric thermal imager: Delivers over twice the ground resolution of the previous Altum, with 33cm/pixel vs. 81cm/pixel.
Removable, professional-grade CFexpress storage: Offers up to 2TB capacity, allowing faster write speeds of up to two captures per second.
Global Shutter: Ensures distortion-free image captures, maintaining high-quality data integrity.
Simultaneous capture of thermal, multispectral, and panchromatic imagery: Captures calibrated, pixel-aligned RGB, thermal, multispectral, and panchromatic outputs.
Enhanced spatial resolution with pan-sharpening: Achieves 1.2 cm (0.47 in) pan-sharpened ground resolution when flying at 60m (200 ft).
Ultra-high resolutions and unlimited analytical capabilities: Provides accurate radiometric results, supporting advanced remote sensing workflows and detailed thermal variability detection.
Optimized 3-in-1 solution for advanced remote sensing and agricultural research: Enables comprehensive plant canopy analysis, high-resolution outputs for early growth stage detection, and accurate thermal mapping.
