The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV’s) to carry out survey and inspection work has become increasingly widespread due to significant advances in UAV and photogrammetry technology.

The range and specification of cameras and sensors available has risen along with payload capacity. Improved photogrammetry software allows the images to be processed into orthomosaic photographs and digital terrain models.

UAV’s have applications for large scale mapping projects, building inspections, stockpile monitoring, search and rescue and erosion monitoring, and much more.

We have the knowledge and skills to be able to support your entry into the world of Aerial Survey work. We can advise you which UAV and sensors you will need for your work and provide full training and support when it comes to processing your data into 2D and 3D models.

To legally fly a small unmanned aerial system in the UK the Operator is legally required to hold a Permission for Commercial Operations (PfCO) from the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Before a PfCO is issued the Operator must write and have approved an Operations Manual. Also any pilots who are to fly for that Operator must hold a CAA approved NQE issued qualification demonstrating their operating competence and flying capability.

Laser Scanning is an increasingly popular tool for collecting vast amounts of accurate spatial data within a short amount of time. This makes laser scanners a popular piece of equipment within surveying, film and archaeology companies where on site time may be restricted.

Scanners collect millions of individual point measurements within minutes. The measurements are then plotted within a single XYZ coordinate system to form a 'point cloud' of the object’s external surface. With the addition of GPS data, these points can be geo-referenced and transformed into a global reference system. Multiple data clouds collected from different viewpoints can also be combined (“registered”) using common features to create one 3D dataset. For example, a building could be scanned to include all external walls and then registered together to include scan data from inside the building.

The resulting 3D data can be used for visualisation, modelling and planning in 3D, to use in BIM, geomorphological change and heritage projects. The point cloud data can also be used to take any number of measurements without having to physically them on site. Point cloud data can form the basis of a rich dataset containing more than purely spatial information (XYZ). For example, intensity or photographic imagery could be applied to create a coloured point cloud and 3D vector data can be over laid to map pipes and cables.

Machine control technology is revolutionising the construction industry. It involves the integration of survey positioning equipment onto earthmoving machines and is typically used by contractors who need enhanced safety and productivity on work sites when excavating, grading, dredging or piling.

Accuracy is improved when the machine control solution is placed directly on the machine, helping operators move earth faster and for longer. Operating costs are in turn lowered as machinery is on site for less time. Machine control eliminates the need for time-consuming, costly engineering works.

We offer a full range of machine control solutions from leading machine control manufacturers Leica, Topcon and Trimble. As well as offering machine control products to buy, our experts can advise on installation, training and technical support. Contact us today on 0330 175 9558.
