BS ISO 19130-1:2018

Unlock the Power of Geospatial Imagery with BS ISO 19130-1:2018

As the world becomes increasingly data-driven, the need for accurate and reliable geospatial imagery has never been more crucial. BS ISO 19130-1:2018, the international standard for 'Geospatial imagery sensor models for geolocating imagery', is a game-changer in the field of geospatial data management.

Comprehensive Sensor Model Specifications

This standard provides a comprehensive set of specifications for geospatial imagery sensor models, ensuring that data can be accurately geolocated and integrated into a wide range of applications. Key features include:

• Detailed sensor model parameters, including interior and exterior orientation, sensor distortion, and sensor-to-platform alignment
• Support for a variety of sensor types, including frame, pushbroom, and whiskbroom sensors
• Flexible data structures to accommodate different sensor configurations and data collection scenarios
• Robust error handling and quality assurance mechanisms

Compliance Benefits

By adhering to the guidelines set forth in BS ISO 19130-1:2018, organizations can unlock a range of benefits:

• Improved Data Accuracy: Accurate sensor models ensure that geospatial imagery is correctly geolocated, enabling more reliable analysis and decision-making.
• Enhanced Interoperability: The standardized data structures and formats facilitate seamless integration of geospatial data across different systems and platforms.
• Increased Efficiency: Streamlined data processing and analysis workflows, thanks to the well-defined sensor model parameters and quality assurance mechanisms.
• Regulatory Compliance: Adherence to this international standard demonstrates a commitment to best practices and can help organizations meet regulatory requirements in various industries.

Technical Specifications

BS ISO 19130-1:2018 is the first part of a two-part international standard, with the second part (BS ISO 19130-2:2014) focusing on sensor and data models for lidar and radar. The key technical specifications of this standard include:

• Sensor Model Parameters: Interior orientation (e.g., focal length, principal point, sensor distortion), exterior orientation (e.g., position, attitude), and sensor-to-platform alignment
• Sensor Types: Frame, pushbroom, and whiskbroom sensors
• Data Structures: Flexible data models to accommodate different sensor configurations and data collection scenarios
• Quality Assurance: Mechanisms for handling sensor model errors and ensuring data quality
• Compliance: Alignment with other relevant geospatial standards, such as ISO 19115 (geographic information metadata) and ISO 19123 (schema for coverage geometry and functions)

By adopting BS ISO 19130-1:2018, organizations can unlock the full potential of their geospatial imagery data, driving innovation, improving decision-making, and staying ahead of the curve in an increasingly data-driven world.
