ESTEIO performed Aerial Photogrammetric Cadastre services of the area destined to the future reservoir of Salto Caxias Hydroelectric Power Plant – PR to Companhia Paranaense de Energia − COPEL (Energy Power Company of Paraná).
Services developed include aerial photogrammetric coverage in 1:20,000 scale in approximately 1,800 Km², the basic horizontal support of the region, geometric leveling and the outline of misappropriation boundaries, essential to the cadastre services.
In addition to conventional Aerial Photogrammetry and Technical Cadastre products, image charts were obtained derived from SPOT images and Digital Orthophotomaps of the misappropriation area, to which vector data from the technical cadastre were overlapped for misappropriation.
