Discover the power of BlackSky data. ⬇️ BlackSky partner GP One Consulting used #Esri #ArcGIS virtual reality software to create a large 3D visualization using BlackSky's 5-frame stereo product. 🌎 Fifteen scenes were stitched together into a seamless mosaic and used to assess damage after devastating cyclones hit Australia twice earlier this year. Visualizations like these are a cost-effective approach to broad-scale surface generation, and have broad applications beyond disaster response, including #missionplanning, #economicindicatormonitoring, #urbanplanning and #mining.
