Specialties of Michael F. Baumgartner:
MFB-Geo is specializing in “Solutions in Geographic Imaging” for optical and radar Earth observation, i.e. the company’s services do cover a complete range of services including: a) distribution of earth observation data (contracts with most of the satellite operators), b) distribution of software for image processing, photogrammetry and 3-D visualizations (exclusive distribution for Leica Geosystems in Switzerland) and 3-D hardware components, c) project management and realization d) training and education (lecturing at Universities). Depending on the customer’s project, MFB-Geo can offer project- and customer-adapted solutions.

Furthermore, the integration and interfacing of image and auxiliary geo data with geographic information and database management systems including the data transmission (field-to-office) is one of the strength of MFB-Geo. This includes the transfer of data from/to almost any raster and vector format. In addition, the extraction of 3-D information from stereoscopic imagery with photogrammetric precision (DEMs, buildings, etc.) are part of the daily applications.
