Question: What's the difference between horseshoes, hand grenades and Ground Control Points?

Answer: Close enough is good enough only in horseshoes and hand grenades

If you need ground control points to rectify satellite or aerial imagery, there are plenty of companies who will try to convince you that getting close is good enough.

Not CompassData. Close enough may be good enough for our competition...but not for us. We're CompassData and we are the Control Freaks.
