Drone Surveys

Using the latest drones/UAVs, we are now capable of remote data-capture in previously inaccessible areas, allowing us to provide an even more comprehensive dataset to our clients.

By employing our cutting-edge aerial mapping drone surveying technology, we can now capture comprehensive data from above.

We are pleased to announce that Laser Surveys is now undertaking Drone Surveys in the UK (UAS/UAV). Using the latest drones, we are capable of remote data-capture in areas previously inaccessible due to logistical and H&S reasons, allowing us to provide an even more comprehensive deliverable/dataset to our clients.

With our in-house CAA qualified drone survey operators, we can cover the United Kingdom conducting drone surveys on both building and terrestrial projects, capturing high accuracy levels of data efficiently, effectively and most importantly, safely while undertaking UAV land surveying.

More Details

What does it cost?

Each site is quoted on its own merit, and fees will be dependant on several factors including size of the site and which deliverables are required.

What's involved?

Whilst conducting a drone survey imagery is captured from multiple aerial vantage points allowing us to create orthophotography, 3D models and various other deliverables.

What you get..

There are many deliverables available for drone surveying including: orthographic photography, colour or monochrome point clouds, 3D renders of site and high quality photos and video footage.

Drone Capture with Topographical Overlay

There’s significant potential in leveraging UAV/Drone image capture to enhance traditional survey methods. For instance, here’s a topographical survey of a brownfield site overlaid on UAV imagery. The survey includes adjacent footpaths and accurately calculates volumes of earth stockpiles onsite.

Point Clouds direct from Drone Capture

Using a drone derived point cloud can provide a cost-effective solution for hard-to-reach places and covering a vast area with a rapid turnaround. This offers another solution to our on-site survey services for large and small projects such as adding roof details that would otherwise be impossible to see from the ground level.

Which types of deliverables can I expect from a Drone Survey?

 

  • Orthographic Photography

    This is achieved by ‘stitching’ a series of photos together to produce a composite image of the area or site, resulting in a highly detailed image that can be overlaid onto a survey or utilised as a standalone graphical product. Supplied in JPEG or TIF format.

     

  • Colour or Monochrome Point Clouds

    Data measured by the scanning module during UAV land surveying is used to create a point cloud which can be used in a variety of software or modelling packages. This can also be georeferenced to existing survey control. Data formats include: PNTS, LAS, PLY, PCD & S3MB. This can either be supplied as a dataset in its own right or incorporated into associated terrestrial survey work to ensure every detail or object of interest is measured for the client.

     

  • 3D Renders of Site

    This consists of a 3D model (not to be confused with a Revit Model). Available formats include: B3DM, OSGB, PLY, OBJ & IS3. This can be used as a visual tool or as an alternative media for presentation where the client does not possess survey, engineering or modelling software.

  • High Resolution Photos / Video Footage

    We can supply photographs of inaccessible areas within a site which can aid in visualisation when it comes to planning, or as an aid to 3rd-party condition surveys. Video footage of a site from a drone survey can be supplied to aid with visualisation but also can be used to check the condition of a structure or worthiness of a moving object (inaccessible plant for example). These can be referenced to survey data drawn in CAD & then be passed onto structural or dilapidation experts as an initial report on worthiness.
