processing and referencing the images photogrammetricallyĭuring the bulk earthworks part of the project, following this workflow they could accurately issue volumetric reports from week to week for selected areas.collecting images taken at specific intervals. Their regular workflow consisted of these steps: 3DroneMapping staff has a task to fly the project every week to produce a high-resolution orthophoto and contours. The Hammarsdale project consists of mapping a large-scale (600ha) development area in Hammarsdale, South Africa. This decision enabled them to offer a service with a very quick turnaround time and low environmental impact, safer and more cost efficient than services with traditional approach using aircraft vehicles. 3DroneMapping began with drone mapping in 2014., making the most of their experience in terrestrial and conventional aerial survey to create a modern approach to undertaking survey, using drone technology. We bring you story of a 3DroneMapping project in Hammarsdale, South Africa. Our clients can now login to GIS Cloud and have the cloud do all the hard work of rendering and resampling.” – Luke Wijnberg, 3DroneMapping Given that we are primarily at photogrammetry company, much of our datasets are very large rasters that require specialized software and hardware to view. “We are much more efficient with GIS Cloud as all our clients have access to the same data at the same time. Blackwell‘s, the book seller currently in possession of the map, calls it “perhaps the finest piece of Tolkien ephemera to emerge in the last 20 years at least”. The map is currently on exhibit in Oxford and can be yours for the asking price of £60,000. Hobbiton, he notes, “ is assumed to be approx at latitude of Oxford”. He corrected place names, provided extra ones, and gives Baynes suggestions about the flora and fauna of the Middle-Earth. While working on the map Baynes had been in touch with Tolkien who gave her precise comments. Tolkien has been recently discovered in a copy of the LOTR book owned by illustrator Pauline Baynes, whose coloured map has been published in the 1970 edition of the famous novel. This is why when I heard that news, my heart started to beat faster… A Middle-earth map with annotations by J.R.R. Who knows, maybe this is why I got interested in cartography…? Actually “The Hobbit” was the first book I’ve ever read and the map of Middle-Earth was one of the first maps I’ve carefully studied piece by piece. “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy is definitely one my top favourite novels.

Prior to FY19, the income category of a country was not one of the factors which influenced lending decisions. Income groupings remain fixed for the entire World Bank fiscal year (i.e., until July 1 of the following year), even if GNI per capita estimates are revised in the meantime. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.Įstimates of GNI are obtained from economists in World Bank country units who rely primarily on official data published by the countries the size of the population is estimated by World Bank demographers from a variety of sources, including the UN’s biennial World Population Prospects.Ĭountries are classified each year on July 1, based on the estimate of their GNI per capita for the previous calendar year. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. The World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income.
