Urban Planner 5m layers 

Overview of the Urban Planner 5m digital mapping capabilities

LuxCarta's Urban Planner is produced by our expert GIS team, tailored specifically for the telecom market. This dataset integrates layers such as Digital Terrain Models (DTM), detailed land use (Clutter), and 2D linear vectors, all derived from satellite imagery at a 5-meter resolution. These components are crucial for RF planning, facilitating precise terrain analysis, urban land classification, and infrastructure mapping. The Urban Planner provides reliable, accurate data to support strategic decision-making in telecommunications network development.

Urban Planner 5m: Precision Mapping for Urban RF Planning

LuxCarta's Urban Planner 5m is tailored for RF planners focusing on urban environments. It provides detailed terrain and land use data at a high resolution, essential for analyzing urban characteristics and managing spatial relationships on a city scale. This tool is crucial for detailed assessment and planning of telecommunications infrastructure, offering precise, actionable insights for dense urban areas.

RF Planner - Region provides multiple vectors to help planners

Key features include:

5m digital terrain model

 Our DTMs are produced from refined SRTM V3+ elevation data and carefully processed to ensure accuracy. The data undergoes interpolation, void filling, and anomaly correction, with coastline and water body adjustments for precise elevation representation.

LandUse 18 classes

An 18-class menu at 5-meter resolution, categorizing land into urban, agricultural, forested, and water areas. This layer is essential for telecommunications, facilitating site selection for tower placement and signal assessment. Customizable to meet specific regional and technical needs, it supports optimal network planning and deployment.

Linear vectors 

 
Derived from satellite imagery, capturing a wide array of linear features such as water bodies, road networks, and runways. This includes everything from expansive highways to intricate railway lines.  Essential for telecom planning, these vector layers facilitate precise network infrastructure deployment and maintenance across diverse geographic regions.

Orthoimage

LuxCarta's Urban Planner employs high-resolution orthoimagery, optimized by selecting scenes based on optimal seasonal visibility and minimal cloud interference. Images are geo-rectified and mosaicked to ensure precise alignment and terrain accuracy, enabling detailed urban mapping.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Sentinel-2?

Sentinel-2 is an earth polar-orbiting satellite constellation (Sentinel-2A and 2B) designed to feed the GMES system with continuous and operational high-resolution imagery for the global and sustained monitoring of Earth’s land and coastal areas. The Sentinel-2 system is based on the concurrent operations of two identical satellites flying on a single orbit plane but phased at 180º, each hosting a Multi-Spectral Instrument (MSI) covering from the visible to the shortwave infrared spectral range and delivering high spatial resolution imagery at global scale and with a high revisit frequency.

How are land cover clutter layers generated?

Our method for creating clutter is composed of four steps and applies different strategies. The image is segmented, globally assigning image pixels into groups of like values or clusters. Then we create a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to separate the areas with vegetation cover from those without vegetation cover. Urbanized areas and impervious surfaces are detected by manual photo interpretation. Finally, a vector mask is applied to isolate water, coastlines, road and other linear features within the area of interest. The resulting classified image is then mapped to a standard land use, land cover (LULC) menu.

What are your sources for digital terrain models (DTM)?

The primary sources for our RF planning maps are SRTM (NASA), ALOS (ESA) or LiDAR.
