There are many companies that offer high-resolution satellite and aerial imagery, like Maxar Technologies, Arlula, Vexcel Data Program, Nearmap, Aerometrex, Satellogic, and Geolocarta Technologies, etc with hundreds of amazing and impactful use cases. But for many applications, nothing beats high-resolution ground-level imagery (on-demand or pre-collected) specifically captured with pedestrians, walking, active transportation, accessibility, wayfinding on foot, sidewalk mapping, and micromobility in mind.
While many transportation features (e.g. street lanes, marked crosswalks, pedestrian refuge islands) can be viewed from high-resolution satellite and aerial imagery, a detailed understanding of the quality of the sidewalks, condition of the assets, pedestrian signs, curb cuts, ramps, stairs, building architecture, street life is only possible with street-level imagery captured on the ground from a walking person's view.
