Achieving a bird’s-eye-view of a mining site is a challenging task however our surveying drones are uniquely suited to the tasks of aerial mapping and scoping, offering lower operational costs, safer operating conditions, faster deployment and more accurate data collection to more traditional surveying methods. Mining sites require regular inspection for safety and reporting reasons. Offering swift, accurate surveillance and data collection over large areas.
Inspections carried out by our drones can address the operational challenges faced by human inspections. Equipped with the latest mapping technology our drones are capable of generating accurate topographical maps of large areas with minimal wear and tear on equipment allowing for the creation of highly accurate models.
Using photogrammetry (a surveying and mapping technique) our drones provide quick deployment and turn-around times with accurate reporting from point cloud datasets. Survey ground control, processing and reporting tasks are carried out by our experienced and registered surveyors.
Uneven terrain can cause difficult and hazard working conditions for surveyors travelling over land on foot hence our drones are able to quickly and precisely retrieve topographical maps of large areas with minimal wear and tear on equipment and low risk.
Predesign surveys for site planning, detailed surveys of existing infrastructure and topography, Digital Surface Models (DSM) and Digital Terrain Models (DTM), contour maps, accurate geo-referenced ortho-rectified imagery and maps, geo-referenced high-resolution orthophotos up to 1cm GSD.
Surveying a stockpile using our drone is simpler, faster and safer than traditional survey methods. The aerial perspective overcomes the problems of stockpile height, steep slopes and the potential risk to a surveyor on foot while the speed and precision means that surveys can be undertaken more regularly and with greater accuracy.
Adhoc stockpile measurements and volumetric reporting, periodic stockpile audit measurements and volumetric reporting for mines, accurate ortho-mosaic images / maps to visualize and verify stock on hand.
Drone data can be used for drainage design plans for development sites. Data can also be used determine the best route for water to flow across a selected area. High-density point cloud data for analyzing terrain and flow patterns.
