ViewGL, Premium Content for Google Earth Introduced at ICSC
May 22, 2006

Company: Aerials Express
Industry: Business GIS, Land Information/Land Use, Photogrammetry & Aerial Surveying, Satellite Image Data, Business Intelligence
Location: Tempe, AZ, United States of America





Tempe, Arizona-based aerial imagery and GIS mapping applications provider Aerials Express announces the introduction of ViewGL Beta at the International Council of Shopping Centers convention in Las Vegas, Nevada held May 21 – 24.

Aerials Express maintains the industry’s most aggressive flying schedule, photographing every US metropolitan area on an annual basis. Aerials Express is the recognized leader in providing current aerial imagery to real estate, retail, engineering and governmental clientele.

ViewGL feeds Aerials Express’ premium aerial content directly into the Google Earth platform giving professionals access to the latest high resolution imagery available.

“Google Earth has had a very positive impact on our business,” states Bill Landis, CEO of Aerials Express. “More people than ever before have access to aerial imagery because of Google Earth. Subsequently demand for current imagery has grown dramatically since its release. Initially, this lead us to launch our ‘Every City, Every Year’ campaign, purchasing a Leica ADS40 digital aerial camera and Cessna 421 in order to accelerate our collection schedule to include all US metros annually.”

“We see the power of Google Earth being its ability to easily deliver content to the user, and we wanted to develop solutions that empowered our clients that use our imagery. ViewGL does that by feeding our premium content to our users within Google Earth as a layer. While ViewGL works with all versions of Google Earth, we strongly recommend that our users acquire Google Earth Pro in order to take full advantage of our imagery.”

ViewGL is currently in beta release with six markets available for review at aerials-express.com.
