Mapping via drones comes in many different types and accuracy levels. Orthomosaic maps (2D) are a series of pictures taken in sequence and tag with geo-referenced positions. These are stitched together creating a seamless composite layout in very high detail. The GNSS satellite systems give reasonable accuracy for consumer GPS devices. With the addition of real time kinematics (RTK), the accuracy can be down to the centimeter.

3D modeling can also be performed that takes in to account the z axis and extrapolating the height in the images to create 3D models.

Decide which deliverable meets your needs and we can come up with a solution for you. Small properties to large farms, the process is the same. The main difference being is the time to acquire the photo data and the processing of the large data sets. Mapping can be done in RGB photos as well as thermal images. The thermal spectrum can provide insight not available to the naked eye.

This is a stitched image of a 3 acre lot with over 75 photos taken during a mapping mission. They have been stitched in to one photo for better detail.
