In one hour ALTA can deliver thousands of images from multiple perspectives, of the highest resolution, from the lowest angles, at the lowest cost. ALTA is the smallest, greenest earth imaging system in the world. This technology has been applied to marine research and marine environmental monitoring. Show less

Miami/Fort Lauderdale Area

Alta Systems are supported all over the globe by the Alta Drifter Social Network which provides fellowship and information throughout the network. Every image and or data suitable for public consumption will appear on the internet as part of the world wide matrix of geo-referenced imagery.http://www.altametry.com/
