About This Service
A drone survey refers to the use of a drone, or UAV, to capture aerial data with downward-facing sensors, such as RGB or multispectral cameras, and LIDAR payloads. During a survey carried out by a drone with an RGB camera, the ground is photographed several times from different angles, and each image is tagged with coordinates.
Drone surveying has a lot of potential for GIS specialists. Topographic surveys may be completed in a fraction of the time as traditional methods, yet, with the same level of accuracy. This significantly minimizes the expense of a site survey as well as the burden of field professionals.
Dronector Ltd conducts aerial mapping and surveys with the latest in drone technology, using a process known as photogrammetry, which measures and interprets features directly from our high-resolution aerial imagery. Delays associated with traditional survey methods are eliminated by faster deployment, real-time data capture, and information transfer.
Benefits of Drone Surveying and Aerial Mapping include but are not limited to:
- Reduced Field Time and Survey Costs
- Provision of accurate and exhaustive data
- Mapping of otherwise Inaccessible areas
