UAV (Drone) Surveys

UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) surveys are a great way to plan large projects since they collect large amounts of data in a short space of time. We collaborate with you to ascertain your needs, fill you in on the technical details, and carry out UAV surveys in the most economical way possible. To maximise the advantages of this technology for you, we capture, verify, and manage the data created in order to produce high-quality 2D or 3D models, which gives you free reign to plan and design accordingly.

In locations with poor quality, dated, or even no data, UAV surveys produce high-resolution orthomosaics and intricate 3D models. They make it possible to swiftly and efficiently construct very accurate cadastral maps, especially in challenging or difficult-to-access areas.

UAV surveys are ideal for feasibility studies on a site, and when combined with a topographical survey, you will have a data packed drawing of your site.

UAV surveys are ideal for:

Land surveying/cartography
Urban planning and development
Construction and planning
Environmental studies and research
Volumetric measurement

Key Benefits

Time spent on site is vastly reduced, as large areas can be surveyed 10 times quicker than traditional survey methods
UAV Surveys are able to reach inaccessible areas, such as masts, towers, roofs, tall buildings and wind turbines
Ideal for projects which may be deemed dangerous, as it reduces risk by capturing data from the air
Cost effective

Deliverables

High quality 3D point clouds
Provides highly accurate orthomosaic maps
3D textured maps
Contour maps of a site
Digital terrain models

Back to Services

We always strive to work with local businesses, and Powers has continually been able to deliver excellent surveys for our projects. The company’s background surveys – be it the restaurant, gym or more recently the spa – ensure that the project has a solid grounding from the outset and are the origin of how the projects then go on to take shape.
