Leica RCD100 Medium-Format Mapping Camera Released

The latest news from Leica Geosystems is the release of the RCD100 medium-format mapping camera. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because the RCD105 for the ALS was just released last year.

While the RCD105 is a solution for LIDAR sensor owners pursuing fused imagery/Lidar workflows, the new RCD100 is a comprehensive stand-alone system for orthophoto and mapping projects (orthos, terrain, 3D feature extraction, etc).

This means the RCD100 camera system can flown standalone for workflows like this example, which is actually based on RCD105 imagery.
