CICADE GOES DIGITAL WITH:

 


Since its setting up, CICADE has always been a forerunner in the cartographic field.  Again, CICADE has taken a step forward in the acquisition of images by using LARGE FORMAT DIGITAL CAMERA powered by DiMAC SYSTEMS.

The DiMAC Camera has been exclusively designed  to fit both photogrammetric and orthophoto projects, which require high accuracy along with sharpness and true color.  Its unique TRUE FMC system and state-of-the-art components make the DiMAC Camera highly effective enabling small, medium and large scale mapping. 

CICADE has already achieved several projects with the DiMAC Camera in Europe as well as Middle East for both national and private clients.  (Read more...)
