Using orthorectified imagery our drone can Survey any area that we can then geo-locate the image to be in terms of your boundary.
Benefits of using a drone are:
Speed — We have recently surveyed a 70 hectare property with a flight time of 1.5 hours. Less than a day's work that would typically take more than a week using conventional methods.
Safety — areas that are not safe to work in, the drone can fly. Areas such as cliffs and high banks, deep holes and limited access areas that may not safe for people, are not a problem anymore.
Deliverables — We can produce contour plans with the drone image as a background picture. We can also send clients a .kml file that can be viewed on programs like Google earth.
Point Clouds — Point cloud data is useful for design, 3d viewing and creating digital terrain models (DTM) the drone can quickly survey ground elevation over large areas - up to 50mm accuracy.
