MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire - April 29, 2009) - Award-winning 360-degree street-level imaging
technology developer Blue Dasher Technologies is adding California's San
Diego County to its expanding digital footprint of major U.S. population
centers.
Beginning this month Blue Dasher's fleet of image capture vehicles will
photograph every public street and highway in the County, home to more than
three million residents. San Diego County, with 18,351 linear miles of
streets and roads, is California's second most populous county, after Los
Angeles.
Blue Dasher's high-density image database and advanced viewing technology
are licensed to third-party providers of commercial, industrial, government
and consumer applications. Launched in 2008, Blue Dasher has created the
most advanced searchable image database that allows users to explore and
navigate a neighborhood from their PC.
Blue Dasher's image capture vehicles employ sophisticated proprietary
software to record images every eight to ten feet, resulting in
high-density photography that gives users unparalleled accuracy. When
viewed online, the 360-degree images are seamless, creating an experience
similar to driving down the street.
In addition, with Blue Dasher, users have access to exact addresses, which
results in a much more useful tool for a host of applications, from
economic development, commercial real estate research, zoning and code
enforcement, and residential real estate assessment, to consumer
applications, such as planning a trip online. Blue Dasher also provides
the ability to embed detailed information, such as multimedia, property
data, or advertising into its images at specific geographic locations.
Blue Dasher has completed coverage of and is licensing major metropolitan
areas in Florida, Arizona, Nevada, California and Colorado. Its California
"footprint" already includes complete street coverage of San Francisco and
other parts of the Bay Area, San Jose and all of Orange County.
Blue Dasher Technologies draws on more than 20 years of work in the GIS and
real estate industries. Previous companies founded by Blue Dasher
principals built GIS solutions for the oil and gas industry and state and
local governments, including the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey,
Los Alamos National Laboratory, and the states of Louisiana and Florida.
