Aerial photographer Nearmap has come good on a promise to capture big Australian cities in mesmerising 3D.
This week Nearmap (ASX:NEA) — which is trading at an all-time high — posted two videos to its Youtube page of fly-throughs of Melbourne and Perth in 3D.
Scroll down to watch the amazing videos.
In August last year the flying snapper
vowed to survey Australia’s five biggest metro cities — Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.
The clips show in intricate detail how Melbourne and Perth are laid out, showcasing landmarks such as the Melbourne CBD, Parliament House, the MCG and Tullamarine Airport.
The company also makes software that stitches the footage together without the need for a person to do it manually.
Nearmap differs from Google Earth in that it uses aerial imagery, rather than satellites.
The business has imaged 88 per cent of the population in Australia, 68 per cent of the United States and 72 per cent of New Zealand.
