The SWISSIMAGE 10 cm orthophoto mosaic is an assembly of new color digital
aerial images over the whole of Switzerland with a ground resolution of
10 cm in the plains and the main alpine valleys and 25 cm in the Alps. It
is updated annually.
This RGB collection contains digital aerial images with three bands.
Standard deviation for the precision in position: +/- 0.15 m for the ground
sample distance of 0.1 m.
