 January 5th, 2011, San Diego, Calif. - Vertical Mapping Resources, Inc., a leading photogrammetric and geospatial land information firm with offices in both California and Arizona, was recently contracted to provide digital mapping and color ortho-photography services to support planning and design for the Westside Subway Extension in Los Angeles, Calif.
The Westside Subway Extension is one of Metro’s priority projects. It will provide a high-capacity, high-speed, dependable alternative for those traveling to LA’s “second downtown” that includes key destinations such as Miracle Mile, Beverly Hills, Century City and Westwood, including the UCLA campus. Over 300,000 people travel into the Westside every day for work from areas throughout the County and beyond.
VMR was tasked with providing 1”=40’ topographic mapping, with 1’ contours, and digital color orthophotography of the entire 12 mile alignment. The project included acquisition of color aerial photography for the stereoscopic feature collection and surface modeling. VMR also produced a color orthophoto mosaic of the site with a .25’ pixel resolution.
