What are drone surveys?

Work smarter and safer, from the air.

Also known as unmanned aerial vehicles, drones are airborne devices controlled remotely from the ground. With the right piloting expertise they can navigate complex terrain and confined spaces, making them ideal for safely surveying land — and they cover that ground far faster than traditional methods.

Drone surveying is the process of flying over selected buildings or plots to gather information using the aircraft's built-in sensors. Capable of capturing high-definition imagery from any angle, the data our drones collect can be brought together into a full 2D or 3D model of the site — without anyone having to climb up there or spend hours on foot.

Data collection

The right sensor for the job.

Our drones carry a range of sensors to capture exactly the data you need — then we process it into useful models.

01

RGB Sensors

Red, green and blue channels stacked to produce full-colour, high-resolution imagery.

02

Multispectral

Captures light beyond ordinary photography for vegetation, land and condition analysis.

03

LiDAR

Laser pulses that detect small objects and see through tree cover and foliage during mapping.

04

Thermal

Heat cameras that identify water and supply lines, leaks and energy loss across a structure.

Data processing — photogrammetry

Thousands of data points, one accurate model.

We stitch the imagery together into high-resolution 2D and 3D outputs, each picture a geolocated data point in the finished survey.

01

Orthomosaic Maps

Like a Google Earth view, but far sharper — corrected for distortion so you can measure true distances across large plots.

02

Topographic Maps & DEMs

Contour maps and colourful Digital Elevation Models that reveal the peaks, valleys and troughs of your terrain.

03

3D Point Clouds & Mesh

Complex 3D models that reproduce the colours, textures and detail of the area you're inspecting.

Key benefits

Why choose drone surveying?

Whether you need to assess land, determine boundaries or examine a roof, a drone survey saves time and keeps people out of harm's way.

  • Save time & money — turn weeks of paid labour into a few hours of careful flight.
  • Access all areas — confined spaces or acres of land, reached without risk of injury.
  • Keep your team safe — no working at height, no costly lawsuits.
  • Better measurements — thousands of data points captured at once.
  • Back yourself up — review the footage any time and prove due diligence.
