Vricon's 3D geodata and 3D visualization use stereophotogrammetry for visualization. Its system used hundreds of images, typically from commercial satellite imagery. [1]
Vricon used automated 3D image-processing algorithms to produce its high-resolution 3D data and solutions for government and commercial clients.[1]
In early 2017, USG clients account for slightly less than 50 percent of total Vricon revenue.[1]
On July 1, 2020, Vricon was acquired by Maxar Technologies for approximately $140 million USD. [2]
