Drone Survey and Mapping
Drones have revolutionized the way surveying and mapping are done, and the technique is quickly gaining popularity in various industries. Drone survey and mapping offer a faster, more efficient, and cost-effective solution to traditional surveying methods. This article will explore the benefits of using drones for surveying and mapping, and why it is an excellent option for many industries.
​
Drones are used in various industry verticals such as construction and infrastructure projects, Survey and Mapping, Security and Surveillance, Mining, Oil & Gas, Powerline Inspection, Emergence response, and Smart City Development.
​
The development of increasingly dense and complex urban areas requires proper planning and therefore time-consuming. Thanks to drones, urban planners can collect large amounts of up-to-date data in a short period of time and with far less staff. The images produced in this way allow planners to examine the existing environmental conditions of the sites and consider the impact of different scenarios.
​
The scope of the work is as mentioned below for most of the industries:
-
Flying the Drone any number of times at the area of interest
-
Ortho mosaic image
-
Digital elevation model(Contour Map at 1-meter interval)
-
Planemetric feature extraction in CAD/GIS format
-
DGPS marking at every 300-500 meters or 4-5 points in 1 sqkm
-
Cross Section
