The SOCET GXP® software solution utilizes the metadata associated with imagery in order to accurately georeference pixels to real-world ground coordinates. Metadata may be embedded in the image data directly or included in supplemental files associated with the pixel data. While the SOCET GXP solution supports several simple planimetric sensor models such as four corner, the full power and accuracy of the SOCET GXP solution is realized when a projective model can be initialized. A projective sensor model is often referred to as a rigorous sensor model and relates line and sample image coordinates to full 3D ground coordinates. When a rigorous sensor model is available, users can run the full SOCET GXP suite of photogrammetric capabilities such as triangulation, stereo viewing and mensuration, automatic terrain extraction, height mensuration, orthophoto generation, and much more.
GXP® has established close ties with the Community Sensor Model (CSM) working group, government agencies, programs, system integrators, satellite operators, and airborne camera providers. SOCET GXP engineers have decades of experience in complex photogrammetric techniques and sensor model development that allow for rigorous sensor models to be created across a multitude of sensors. When multiple sensor models can be initialized from a particular image, the SOCET GXP solution allows users to pick the model most relevant for their needs. As new satellites and airborne sensors become available, the GXP group continuously updates the SOCET GXP application to ensure the highest degree of accuracy possible.
