The Benefits of Aerial Survey Drone Technology

Aerial survey drone technology has been a significant technological advancement for the surveying profession. Among the numerous benefits are:

• Increased accuracy
• Better data, which enables more options
• Saves time
• Enhanced graphics and video
• Increased safety

Other benefits that come with using land surveying drones include significant risk minimisation and the ability to survey locations that were otherwise inaccessible.

Data Production and Presentation Details

Data collected by the aerial survey drone is produced in various formats. Common types are Autodesk Recap .rcp, .rcs, .pts or .e57. We can also overlay contours or DTM (Digital Terrain Model) and an accompanying orthophoto to your existing AutoCAD dwg file.

Our data is presented at a resolution of 1-2cm per pixel. If required, we can provide higher resolution scans for picking up fine-detail structures such as building facades.
