Drone Mapping in Wiltshire
Covering Bath, Bristol, Swindon, Cirencester, Chippenham, South West
We offer specialist UAV drone services tailored to a range of industries, including geospatial mapping, building surveys, construction site progress monitoring, and environmental monitoring.
Using advanced drone technology, we provide high-precision mapping and survey solutions that deliver reliable, accurate results.
My drone mapping services include the creation of orthomosaic maps and 2D/3D models, produced through photogrammetry techniques. Whether you require detailed topographical surveys or digital elevation models, we can achieve centimetre-level accuracy using RTK (Real-Time Kinematic), GCP (Ground Control Points), and GPS systems. These methods ensure precision and reliability in every project, whether it’s for planning, analysis, or reporting.
By combining cutting-edge drone technology with expert knowledge, we deliver high-quality data and insights to support informed decision-making in construction, land management, and environmental monitoring
Topigraphical Maps
A simple topographical drone 2D map is essentially a flat, aerial representation of the land’s surface, capturing the natural and man-made features in a given area. Using a drone equipped with high-resolution cameras, I can fly over a specific location, collecting thousands of images that are then processed to create a detailed map.
These maps provide a clear overview of the terrain, showing features such as roads, buildings, rivers, vegetation, and elevation changes. They are often used for site planning, land analysis, and environmental assessments.
The accuracy of these maps can be enhanced using Ground Control Points (GCPs) and GPS systems, ensuring that the final product is precise and reliable for any project. These 2D maps are a cost-effective and efficient way to gather valuable geospatial data without the need for traditional surveying methods.
Drone mission flight mapping relies on advanced technology to capture detailed aerial imagery and convert it into accurate geographic data. During the flight, the drone uses GPS, sensors, and high-resolution cameras to capture overlapping images of the ground below. These images are then processed using photogrammetry software, which stitches them together to create maps or 3D models. For high accuracy, technologies like RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) positioning are used, providing centimetre-level precision.
The result is a highly detailed and accurate map that can be used for a wide range of applications, including surveying, land management, and construction planning.
How it works
We discuss your project and requirements. We do the legal CAA risk assessments.
We plan everything for you including a mission plans, log the route we create to cover your site areas.
We fly UAV drones over your building site / land at a set time and date (registered with the police and all logged for the CAA by Red Drone Ltd) taking photos at programmed angles and heights, in a planned pattern .
We then use our software to stick all the images together to reduce a 2D or 3D map and make the maps available to you and your stakeholders if desired.
Turnaround can be within 48 hours depending on complexity of maps and size of site.
