ControlCam announced today that by the end of July, 2012 it will complete the fly over of the entire State of Rhode Island, capturing 360 degree aerial images of every parcel of land in the Ocean State. "We are covering every inch of Rhode Island's 1,214 square miles," said Billy Meadow, CEO of ControlCam.
ControlCam aerial images allow businesses to see their operations from the air. This provides information not available from ground imaging. This allows any business to see how customers access their facilities plus a cleaner, more comprehensive view of important areas like parking, drainage and environmental spaces. In other words it's the complete picture. These images often can provide important information needed to make better business decisions.
The ControlCam contest will direct Rhode Island businesses to a Facebook fan page where they will be asked to enter basic contact information by August 15, 2012. A random drawing will be performed to select a winner. ControlCam will announce the winner online via Facebook and the ControlCam website on August 31, 2012. The winner will receive a parcel centric survey of their office, plant or facility.
