Aerial Drone Surveys

Professional drone services specialising in aerial topographic survey data collection. Survey your site or project with the latest best-in-class technology. Aerial survey methods are safer and cost-efficient. Survey outputs are comprehensive, accurate and still provide traditional CAD drawings in addition to the detailed point-cloud and 3D models generated by drone surveys. 

Applications for Drone Surveys

Land Topographical Surveying

• For construction, quarrying & mining​, civil engineering, landfill and environmental protection projects

• Site survey

• Site monitoring and inspection

Volumetric Topographical Surveys

• Stockpile and spoil heap calculations

• Earthworks material excavation calculations

• Landfill, quarrying and mining void calculations

Mapping​

• Site infrastructure and facilities management​

• Highways mapping for construction and management

Drone Survey Benefits

Improve Productivity

• Aerial drones can simply acquire highly accurate data far more rapidly than traditional survey teams.
• Geo Log Data drones can acquire 1km² of digital topographic imagery per day with little or no site shutdown.

Speed of Delivery of Results

• Acquisition of data digitally permits powerful software processing that delivers required outputs much faster than traditional methods.

• Our survey results can often be delivered within just a few days and in the best case, next day!

Accuracy

After months working with world leaders in land surveying accuracy and precision our drone technology, surveying, data processing and quality checking processes are proven to deliver the high accuracy and precision necessary for Chartered Surveyor approval.

Safety

Use of drones avoids the need for human access to the inherently dangerous terrain and environments common in most of the industries that we operate in.

Data Processing&Outputs

Up to date data of your site in various formats and media.  Incredibly visual and accurate data makes planning and site management efficient. Point-clouds can be imported into your software of choice. 

 

Some common outputs:

• Traditional 2D CAD drawings

• Ortho-mosaics

• DEM

• Point-clouds

• Model fly-throughs

Cloud Data Storage & Analysis

Storing your survey data in the cloud enables use of cloud-based viewing and analysis software reducing the need for heavy duty expensive engineering workstation PC's.

​Cloud based data processing and analysis tools further benefit your teams by enabling engineers, project managers, site managers and subcontractors to take measurements and perform calculations on the survey data using only simple PCs, laptops or even tablets, requiring only a reasonable internet data connection.
