AND
CASE STUDIES

28. For over 20 years, i-cubed has used PCI software to generate high quality orthorectified products that are
delivered to its customers through various platforms, including on-demand streaming. Processing large
land masses is a critical aspect for i-cubed, since customers look for the depth of their imagery catalogs
over different areas of interest around the world.
OTHER RESULTS
 Ability to process multiple different types
“
of images to create seamless mosaics
“We never would have
 High quality pan-sharpened image undertaken a project of
products this magnitude if not for
the cost-effective
automation and flexibility
that PCI software offers”
- Russ Cowart
President

29. Blackbridge Geomatics operates a ground receiving station in Lethbridge, Alberta. They use PCI
technology to quickly and efficiently produce continuous maps of complete provinces (e.g. Alberta,
British Columbia) based on the large volumes of SPOT imagery.
OTHER RESULTS
 Ability to scale operations based on
demand
“
Traditional methods for
 National Imagery Project: over 5,000
correcting SPOT images were
SPOT 4/5 images orthorectified covering simply too expensive and time-
the complete Canadian landmass (see: intensive to meet the needs of
http://www.profsurv.com/magazine/article.aspx?i=70337) our client, the Government of
Canada. The scalability of a PCI
Geomatics automated
orthorectification system will
allow for the rapid and cost-
effective production of accurate
images with little user
intervention”
- Brett Michelson
Vice President

30. Esri invited PCI to become a Gold Level Business partner in 2009, recognizing PCI’s expertise in high
speed, high quality satellite image processing. Faced with the daunting task of pan sharpening,
orthorectifying and mosaicking 50 million km2 of GeoEye imagery, Esri turned to PCI Geomatics.
OTHER RESULTS

31. Société Topographie Informatique selected PCI’s GXL solution to process its high resolution UltraCam
imagery quickly and efficiently – turnaround time is a key aspect of their business. In a highly competitive
aerial market, STi has been able to differentiate itself from competitors - and obtain more projects.
OTHER RESULTS
 Quick integration of the GXL system into STi’s
production chain thanks to dedicated, on site
training by PCI Geomatics experts
“
 Ability to correct thousands of UltraCam images
per day “The speed of the GXL-
 Expansion into new markets thanks to cost

savings impressive - by using the
GXL system, we are able
to save time and money
– allowing us to expand
