The Landesbetrieb Geoinformation und Vermessung (LGV) regularly has colored aerial photos (RGBI) taken of the entire city area.
A spring survey is currently being carried out annually for the whole of Hamburg.
At irregular intervals, the data is supplemented by a summer flight with foliage.
Mosaiced and georeferenced, color digital orthophotos with different resolutions and tile sizes are produced from the aerial photographs.
Orthophotos are geometrically rectified images based on a digital terrain model that combine the appearance of an aerial photograph with the geometric properties of a map.
Because they are also in digital form, they can be displayed at different scales and used like a map.
For the highest demands on the recognition of details, we offer the data in a ground resolution of 20 cm (1km x 1km).
Digital orthophotos can be used in many ways.
In combination with digital cartographic data, content and geometric information can be extracted from the images.
In geographic information systems, they offer an interesting and, above all, informative background.
The digital orthophotos for the entire area of the FHH are available for download in JPEG (+ JGW, RGB) format in the transparency portal (see link).
Other formats can be provided upon request.
In addition, TrueDOPs are available, which can be provided on request.
In contrast to aerial photos or classic orthophotos, a digital TrueOrthophoto is corrected at every point. In this way, a georeferenced and true-to-plan image is possible.
Oblique aerial photographs are also available.
