March 09, 2011 -- Valtus Imagery Services, a division of North West Geomatics Ltd. announced today that they have secured newly acquired aerial imagery for both the Horn River Sale Base and Montney Formation areas in North Eastern British Columbia.

The data was flown by North West Geomatics during early fall of 2010, producing their 40cm resolution, 4-band, true colour product, which is now available online.

“We’re pleased to be able to fulfill on the requests of our partners and their customers for refreshed data in this area” says Tammy Peterson, director of partner strategy and support.  “The new data will not only provide a long awaited update for a key area of interest, but also ensures users have access to a product that meets the level quality and accuracy they have come to expect and rely upon.”
