Drone technology is transforming how we collect and interpret site data. In this blog, we will explore how drones are helping our customers stay ahead of the curve.
What is Drone Surveying?
Drone Surveys, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), use high-resolution cameras, GPS and LiDAR sensors to collect geospatial data. This allows for the creation of detailed maps, 3D models, and elevation profiles – all with minimal disruption to operations on the ground.
At GAP, our Survey & Safety division offers complete drone surveying solutions, including the latest addition, the DJI Matrice 4 Enterprise Drone, fully supported by our in-house experts.
Why Use Drones for Surveying?
Here’s how drones are delivering real results for our customers:
- Speed and Efficiency: Cover large or complex areas in a fraction of the time vs. traditional methods
- Enhanced Safety: Reduced need for surveyors to access high-risk or unstable terrain
- Accuracy: High-resolution imagery and LiDAR provide precise, measurable data for planning, design and progress tracking
- Cost Savings: Faster data collection means fewer hours on site and more efficient workflows
