ANNOUNCEMENTS
GeoCue Group introduces their new hardware as a service
(HaaS) Evergreen Subscription for their True View UAV
LIDAR/Imagery Fusion Sensors to the drone industry.
GeoCue Group has introduced a unique business model
that provides customers access to the True View 410 LIDAR/
dual camera imaging sensor under an “Evergreen” subscrip-
tion pricing model. A True View 410 subscription includes the
sensor hardware, all processing software, maintenance and
support. This package provides a turnkey system to ensure
your projects are easily and successfully completed. The DJI
M600 drone platform (not included) is recommended.
Under this business model, customers are effectively sub-
scribing to the full True View solution. GeoCue understands
that some projects take less/more time than others. We offer
subscription periods as short as one month. The base cost for
the one-month subscription is $5,900. The longer you commit
to your subscription, the lower your monthly base cost will
be. During your subscription period you will receive both
software and hardware updates as they occur. This keeps
your technology in an “evergreen” state, and if you end up
realizing that a traditional purchase is more practical for the
future, your subscription can be terminated, allowing you to
purchase a system at any time!

model is the best option for you.
EQUIPMENT
The Spectral Evolution’s Sensaprobe™ grip ensures that
your remote sensing measurements will always meet your
research requirements. The Sensaprobe grip provides
feedback as you are scanning: showing you a picture of the
area you have targeted, telling you when the probe angle is
at nadir, noting the angle of the sun and providing your GPS
location – all so you can take the exact scan you require. The
Sensaprobe grip features a tilt-angle sensor, auto-rangefinder
and camera to automatically photograph and record field of
view of the scanned image. It is designed with a comfortable
grip and scan trigger button and tripod mount.
The Sensaprobe grip is designed to work with the RS-8800.
With the Sensaprobe grip, the RS-8800 bundle is ideal for
accurate and complete measurements in the field. It can also
be used for vicarious calibration.
