AERIAL SURVEYING SERVICES

What we do

Forestry Aerial Surveys

Our UAV technology can accurately profile tracts of forests for due diligence and emissions schemes.

Aerial surveying of assets

Our survey drone captures detailed, current visual information about significant sites, assets, buildings, infrastructure, and terrain changes.

Aerial Environmental Surveys

We provide accurate, objective views of ecosystem health and changes due to natural processes or human activity.

Aerial surveying of properties

A detailed aerial map and 3D model of your property will help you make better decisions.

Land development aerial surveys

Aerial mapping for construction projects is more precise, quicker, and more cost-effective than manual surveying.

HORTICULTURE AERIAL SURVEYING

Using drones to survey orchards, we provide vital crop and landscape information.

RESOURCE CONSENT AERIAL SURVEYING

We'll provide precise imagery that details your plans, forย your resource consent application.

Benefits of our aerial surveying expertise

๐Ÿœย  Aerial surveying is ideal for sites where an up-to-date snapshot of the area is required. Our drones can survey areas of land from sections to large farms, accurately, quickly, and cost-effectively.

๐Ÿœย  Thereโ€™s a much higher-resolution output from aerial surveying by drones, compared with aircraft.ย 

๐Ÿœย  Aerial surveying has traditionally been undertaken using aircraft flying at high altitudes so they can cover large areas. Our drones can fly between ground level and 120 metres above the terrain which lets us capture much more detail. Our Part 102 certification enables us to fly higher than 120 metres when larger areas or less detail is required.

๐Ÿœย  Drones fly beneath the level of clouds, which means we can carry out your aerial survey on an overcast day. This widens the window available for flying and allows for fast turnaround times.

๐Ÿœย  We use advanced cloud data processing services to produce our maps and 3D models. This process can capture and display details approximately 50 times more detailed than Google Maps.

๐Ÿœย  Our maps and 3D models can be viewed online with any web browser. This allows the products to be stored conveniently, retrieved quickly, and shared readily with your team members and stakeholders. The maps we produce can also be annotated to mark areas of interest or make measurements.

๐Ÿœย  We can work with a local, experienced land surveyor if required for any project. We can also use our differential RTK GPS gear to record precise ground-control measurements during surveys, for absolute accuracy.

๐Ÿœย  Need a physical record? No problem, we can arrange to print your maps up to A0 (84 cm x 119 cm) in size, and laminate the maps to keep them in good condition.

Aerial surveying outputs

An orthophoto/aerial map of the land is a distortion-free, high-resolution map. JPEG or TIF file available.
