What is Pictometry?
Pictometry - has been described as “geometry on images” but that description only captures one aspect of Pictometry.
Unlike traditional geospatial information systems that rely on only an orthogonal, or top-down view of an area, Pictometry captures images obliquely, or from an angle, and create a more natural three-dimensional view so that users can see land features and structures clearly and in their entirety.

The City of Superior and Douglas County will conduct a free, Using Pictometry Training session on May 6. The training is targeted at individuals who are using ESRI’s ArcGIS programs and want to add the use of Pictometry’s ArcGIS Extension to their knowledge base. The Pictometry data has many uses and should be a benefit to every department. This training will allow the GIS user to utilize this powerful tool.
We will be holding other training sessions for novice GIS users, who want to use Pictometry data but may need more training on GIS. Please RSVP as there are only eleven training computers available for each session.
