By 1939 Hansa Luftbild was equipped with 20 stereoplanigraphs, 20 rectifiers and 15 large format aerial cameras. Head office was in Berlin-Tempelhof. In Muenster, the largest branch office, a custom built office was erected in 1938. The company at that time had a total of 400 employees.
The future of the young company looked rosy. By 1945 Hansa Luftbild had produced aerial photographs covering an area of 53,200 square kilometres in Germany, excluding the German national base map at scale 1:5,000. In 1945 the company completely collapsed due to resolutions passed by the Allied powers.
