SINGAPORE OUTLINES



Creation of Singapore Outlines

The outlines of the buildings as seen on our maps in Streetdirectory.com are created using 1m, 10m and 20m satellite images.  We are one of the few companies in Singapore that are authorised by the police department to use the satellite images.

Digitizing Process

The entire Singapore was painstakingly digitized by the cartography team. 

It took over 1 month to digitize the entire Singapore making sure that every detail is captured.

The digitised data is then added with colours. The shape of Singapore is completed.

Other more-defined items such as reservoirs, parks, railways, golf courses, major roads, expressway, airports, piers, MRT Stations and other landmarks etc are slowly traced using the satellite images.

Names & X,Y

Once the process above is completed, building names and other major landmarks are then added onto the maps to create the level 1, 2 & 3 maps which you currently see online.
