Large-scale Mapping: 7 Important Factors to Consider When Choosing Between Aerial and Satellite Sensors

Member states and regional mapping agencies are often split on preferring aerial or satellite datasets. Which one is better? Users should carefully compare the two platforms to ensure the best data collection for their project. While a combined approach using satellite imagery to fill missing aerial data gaps can be effective, many organisations at both EU and national levels depend solely on VHR satellite data for successful wide area coverage. Here are 7 major factors to consider.
