Z/I Imaging Corporation is showcasing the Digital Mapping Camera (DMC), its high-resolution, frame-based digital camera; TerraShare, its image management and distribution system; and ImageStation SSK, its photogrammetric production workstation for Departments of Transportation (DOTs) at the International Highway Engineering Exchange Program (HEEP) in Cheyenne, Wyoming. With its end-to-end digital photogrammetric suite of products, Z/I Imaging provides a breadth of solutions and a wealth of experience unmatched in the transportation industry. With more than 30 years of experience serving DOTs, Z/I Imaging solutions can be found in 24 DOTs nationwide.

With the addition of TerraShare, Z/I Imaging provides DOTs the solution needed to resolve their image production management problems. TerraShare eliminates the nightmare of tracking geoimaging data (imagery, DTMs and digitized raster graphics) across the enterprise and allows instant access to users within the production cycle, increasing productivity throughout the workflow. With five new DOT project implementations over the past year, Z/I Imaging's TerraShare is quickly becoming the preferred image management solution for DOTs. Kansas, Tennessee, New York, New Mexico and Florida DOT all rely on TerraShare to help engineering, planning and administration professionals throughout the agencies integrate terabytes of imagery into their workflows. TerraShare supercharges the access and display of imagery by submitting statewide raster layers to the industry's most popular CAD and GIS applications.

"The use of ortho imagery continues to increase in DOTs because of its high information content," said Hank DiPietro, Vice President, Z/I Imaging. "DOTs are looking for cost-effective solutions that address the problems associated with dealing with large sums of imagery. TerraShare easily fits into a DOT's common IT infrastructure and workflows, enabling IT professionals to make information-rich imagery available to DOT personnel whenever and however they want it."

Joe Bima, Industry Consultant, Z/I Imaging, will present geoimaging enterprise solutions in "An Enterprise Image Management and Distribution Solution" at 9:30 a.m., Wednesday, Oct. 1, at the HEEP conference. In partnership with the Kansas DOT Planning Office, Bima will delve into how to get the data direct to the end-user and explore the value, concepts, technologies and methodologies for DOTs to maximize their geoimaging data throughout their enterprise.
