Large Format Scanning

Do you need your old paper records to be easily accessed on your GIS or archived for security purposes providing cover against damage from wear and tear and accidental disposal?  If yes, then Global Mapping offers a large format scanning service based around the Colortrac 360Gx+ scanner, which is capable of handling most sizes from A5 upwards, the only restrictions being a maximum width of 1 metre and file size. Documents can be scanned in binary, Greyscale, indexed colour and RGB, at resolutions up to a maximum of 600dpi.

As the scanner is not a drum scanner it enables us to scan delicate and precious items with no risk of damage. Output is normally to CD but we also offer the option of writing the data to your own supplied hard drive if you wish.

Images can be tiled and geo-referenced to your requirements and output in a format compatible with your GIS. As an example, Local Authorities have used this facility to import historical mapping to their GIS to help fulfill their Contaminated Lands Strategy.

Large format scanning and geo-referencing solutions can be offered to mapping producers, publishers, oil exploration companies, the architectural field, utilities, government agencies and local authorities and for GPS.
