Imagery sensor type
The camera or imaging-sensor technology used to acquire an image or collection.
Sources that carry it
2 sourcesStanding subscription to current and historical vertical, panorama, oblique, and true-ortho aerial imagery. Buyers select unrelated locations through MapBrowser or authenticated Coverage, Tile, WMS, and Transactional Content APIs. Coverage results expose captureDate, firstPhotoTime, lastPhotoTime, survey/resource IDs, pixelSize/GSD, onlineTime, imagery type, and location metadata inside repeated survey/resource structures; imagery is raster. Those repeated and raster structures are retained here in prose and are not flattened into Features. MapBrowser and API families are delivery surfaces, not separate Sources.
Commercial, non-contributory Elements product that automatically analyzes post-disaster Gray Sky imagery and returns event-scoped, property/building-attributed damage records together with available pre-catastrophe attributes. The separate Damage API offers coverage, event, extract, tile, count, and PDF-report services; official documentation says assessments are generally generated within 24 hours after Gray Sky imagery publication. Exact outputs include post-catastrophe collection/event, capture date, image id, camera technology, GSD, orientation source, model version, roof debris/missing-material/structural-damage/tarp percentages, solar-panel and water-heater damage detections, and approximate FEMA classification. Availability is limited to properties inside qualifying post-disaster Gray Sky collections; it is not a causation opinion or a claim-specific commissioned report.
