It's been over 111 years since the birth of powered aviation and its amazing to think of where we've gone. Cloudpoint conducted its first successful GPS-guided aerial mapping test flight on June 9, 2014 at the Roanoke Apostolic Christian cemetery. Height: 150 ft, Speed: 6 mph, Flight time: 8 minutes
Mapping at Sonic Speed
Cloudpoint's new Chevy Sonic with almost the whole crew loaded inside.
In July we purchased our first company vehicle, a Chevy Sonic, from Sam Leman in Eureka, IL. The logo and lettering by Kat-n-Mouse Graphics of Roanoke. This has been a great vehicle for us as we put many miles on traveling throughout the state to our various clients.
Signs of Success
On May 1 we successfully rolled out our first custom application solution called SignOps, a sign inventory management solution using barcode tags for asset management. LaSalle County was the first project where we tagged over 6,000 signs with barcodes and provided a complete turn-key mangement solution with the SignOps application.
