OnTerra Systems Introduces New Version of MapSavvy Web Map Service

DENVER, Nov. 20, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OnTerra Systems today introduced a new version of its MapSavvy aerial imagery service and a corresponding new website: www.MapSavvy.com. MapSavvy is an affordable Web Map Service providing OGC-compliant images for anyone who needs aerial images in the course of their work or research.

The new version of MapSavvy offers users access to two versions of Bing Maps aerial imagery: original Bing Maps imagery and the recently updated aerial imagery updates introduced in 2017.

Typical users of MapSavvy are GIS and CAD professionals from business, research, or government organizations that need to use aerial imagery as part of projects, presentations, reports, or visual analysis of trends. Examples of MapSavvy users include:

New MapSavvy Aerial Imagery Service Allows Users to Access Both Original Bing Maps Imagery and 2017 Updates to Bing Maps Imagery

The new MapSavvy aerial imagery service offers the flexibility of access to original Bing Maps imagery as well as the new updated aerial imagery introduced in 2017. The original Bing Maps imagery offers the highest resolution. The newly updated Bing Maps imagery offers the most up-to-date imagery of developed areas that have undergone changes to streets and buildings, or wild land areas that have seen changes due to geological shifts or wild fires.

“By offering MapSavvy users access to the original Bing Maps imagery and the new updated imagery, users get the best of both worlds,” said Steve Milroy, OnTerra Systems president. “This new version of MapSavvy lets users access original Bing Maps imagery if their application requires high-resolution images, or access recently updated Bing maps imagery if they require the most up-to-date images showing changes to cityscapes or wild lands."

MapSavvy by OnTerra Systems Costs Less Than Half of What Many Other Aerial Imagery Services Are Charging

An annual MapSavvy subscription costs just $500 per year, and costs half of what many other aerial imagery services are charging.
