Vexcel has announced that, through its Vexcel Data Program, it will now provide free access to aerial imagery for government and commercial users in Australia and New Zealand through its web-based platform, Viewer. Announcing the initiative at the Locate23 conference in Adelaide, Ryan Bank, Managing Director of the Geospatial Insurance Consortium (an insurance industry partnership between the US National Insurance Crime Bureau and Vexcel), said that “It feels like the right thing to do,” adding that all of the imagery will be available for free — “no cost, no strings attached”.
