Mapping & Engineering

A variety of digital surface models, contours, elevation histograms, georeferenced orthomosaic maps & point clouds are derived from the datasets that we acquire.  These file sets can be exported for integration into your own software or BIM. We also provide access to your project and deliverables on our a custom secure password protected webpage.  

We can quickly determine 2D area, distance, elevations and 3D volumetric (stockpile and depression) calculations. These tools replace manual estimates, reducing delays, rush orders costs, and excess inventory.

Elevation profile analysis is dynamic and effortless.

Elevation histogram analysis is also easily evaluated by adjusting threshold sliders and drop-down menus.

The acquired and processed data results are a vast time saving measure that can expedite and ensure meeting project deadlines and reduce downtime costs. Below is an example of a time saving comparison of our aerial service over traditional ground-based surveying.

31.4 Acre Project – Elevation Contours.
– Traditional survey: Field work 42.6 hours + data processing 22.5 hours = 65.1 hours
– UAV survey: Field work 2.8 hours + data processing 4.1 hours = 6.9 hours
– Total time savings employing our UAV services = 58.2 hours

This savings in time relates directly to a lower cost of service. Additional benefits include less utilization of ground crew, greater safety, more detail, and a faster deliverable to you.

Our processed datasets can be exported for use in common Geographical Surveying/GIS software such as AutoCAD, ArcGIS, QGIS and AgLeader. The file types include *.dxf, *.las, *.xyz, *.shp, *.obj, *.jpg and GeoTIFF.
