Leica DMC-4 Airborne Imaging Sensor

Delivering unsurpassed image fidelity for multiple photogrammetric and remote sensing applications

The Leica DMC-4 is a highly efficient airborne imaging sensor delivering superior image fidelity for versatile applications and complex mapping environments. With over 31,500 pixels across swath, the system maximises acquisition efficiency and improves the imaging performance by 20% compared to previous systems. The sensor leverages Leica Geosystems’ CMOS based MFC150 camera module with mechanical forward-motion-compensation (FMC) to deliver the highest image detail. The DMC-4 was designed with application versatility in mind and supports multiple photogrammetry and remote sensing applications.

 

Integrated system

The system fully integrates with powerful Leica HxMap end-to-end processing workflow, supporting customers from mission planning and execution to product generation. Installed in the new Leica PAV200 compact sensor mount, the sensor provides highest sensor stabilisation and data collection efficiency.
