Drone / UAV Mapping

RTK/PPK drone and UAV mapping — orthomosaics, photogrammetric models and LiDAR for fast, dense, accurate terrain capture.

Overview

Drone / UAV Mapping

UAV survey lets us cover large or hard-to-access sites quickly and safely, producing high-resolution orthomosaics, point clouds and surfaces. With onboard RTK/PPK and good ground control we deliver genuinely survey-grade results.

We fly photogrammetry and LiDAR payloads depending on vegetation, accuracy and deliverable needs — and process everything into the CAD/GIS outputs your team uses.

FAQ

Questions, answered

RTK or PPK — which do you use?

Both. PPK is robust where the radio link is challenging; RTK gives instant positioning. We select per site and still recommend independent ground control for assurance.

How accurate is drone mapping?

With RTK/PPK and good control, vertical accuracy in the low centimetres is achievable on open ground.
