Aerial mapping companies Bluesky and Getmapping are pleased to announce that, working with UK, Welsh, and Scottish governments, they have entered into an agreement for the next two years, which makes their data available free-at-the-point-of-use to public sector bodies in England, Scotland and Wales. In a first for Great Britain, the latest and most detailed aerial photography, together with 3D height models and Colour Infrared imagery, is now available to more than 4500 public sector organisations. The Aerial Photography for Great Britain (APGB) contract will support the government’s recently announced Geospatial Commission, which aims to help capture, coordinate and harness the economic value of data linked to location. www.bluesky-world.com www.getmapping.com
