Pictometry International is an aerial measurement company based in Henrietta, New York that develops software that uses three-dimensional aerial photographs to view high-resolution images of buildings in their entirety.[2] Pictometry International's technology was developed at the Rochester Institute of Technology and shows structures at an oblique angle or at a 45-degree angle, from all sides providing perspective and overhead shot images that are accurate to 1/100th of an inch.[3][2] The company has 80 Cessnas that provide high-resolution aerial photography in counties that include 95 percent of the U.S. population.[4]

The company was ranked fifth on the Rochester Top 100 companies list in 2011.[3] Pictometry International along with BLOM ASA and Fugro EarthData, Inc. accounted for approximately a quarter of the global aerial imaging market revenue in 2013.[5]

In 2013, Pictometry International merged with EagleView Technologies, an aerial roof and wall measurement company making EagleView Technology Corp the parent company.[4][6]
