Pictometry International's technology was developed at the Rochester Institute of Technology and shows structures at an oblique angle or at a 45-degree angle, from all sides providing perspective and overhead shot images that are accurate to 1/100th of an inch.〔 The company has 80 Cessnas that provide high-resolution aerial photography in counties that include 95 percent of the U.S. population.

Schultz created new algorithms for the aerial photography software and also implemented a variety of techniques to capture and analyze the content of aerial photographs also known as photogrammetry.〔 Pictometry International was founded in 2000. In 2005, Pictometry established an international division which licenses its technology to partners in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia, Australia, North and South America.
