Aerial surveys

Digital ortho-photos

Creation of rectified high resolution digital images geo-referenced and clipped to suit your mapping needs. Images are provided in all of the popular digital formats.

Orthophoto

Aerial DTM’s and DEM’s

Auto correlated and/or analytically observed ground data points for the cost effective terrain modelling solution.

DTM model

Photography

There are three forms of photography that are used:

  • Satellite imagery is used for large difficult to reach areas. 100sq km or more

Sat

  • Conventional large format aerial photography is generally used for the medium to large projects

SPlane

  • It is more cost effective to make use of small format photography for areas 300ha or less

Drone2

Accuracy

Depending on the camera used, the accuracy of the terrain model is a function of the raw pixel size of the imaging sensor. The general rule of thumb for model height accuracy is in the order of 1.5x the raw pixel size.
