CI Based on the industry-leading A3 series, the A3 CIR
Aerial Camera System captures and processes
high resolution RGB and NIR imagery two times
faster than other systems. A3 CIR is ideal for
agriculture and land management applications.

Largest Footprint
With up to 60,000 pixels across flight track, A3 presents by far the 4-Band Image
largest footprint of CIR cameras available in the market.

Superior High Resolution NIR Imagery

A3 CIR (color-IR) provides near-infrared imagery (NIR) in combination
with high resolution natural color imagery. The native resolution
of the NIR imagery is identical to the natural color imagery resolution.

Compact & Easy to Install

A3 CIR delivers high performance in a compact package (50 x 60 x
60 cm), and features the smallest stabilized mount in the market.

Fastest Processing
The A3 LightSpeed processing suite produces high end 4-band
products in the fastest fully-automatic workflow. LightSpeed can be
run by a single operator, significantly reducing operational costs.
