The use of drones and related technology to capture aerial data has become a highly accurate and efficient tool in collecting land survey data. This technological innovation has made a significant impact on the field of aerial surveying.
At Diamond Land Surveying, we offer comprehensive UAV aerial surveying services in Boise, Idaho and the surrounding Treasure Valley. Our team of licensed and experienced professionals utilize state-of-the-art equipment to provide accurate and detailed topographic data for a variety of land surveying projects..
How UAV Surveys Work
For those just learning about UAV aerial surveys, these refer to the use of drones and other aerial vehicles equipped with high-resolution cameras and sensors to capture data from above. This technology allows for highly accurate and detailed 3D maps, models, and visualizations of a particular area.
Naturally, performing such a service requires well-trained and skilled operators. Our team at Diamond Land Surveying has undergone extensive training to ensure safe and accurate operation of our UAVs in compliance with all regulations.
Benefits of Aerial Surveying
The use of drones for aerial surveying offers numerous benefits over traditional methods such as ground surveys or satellite imagery. These include:
- Cost efficiency: UAV surveys can be more cost-effective compared to traditional methods in many survey applications, as they require fewer resources and personnel.
- Time efficiency: Drones can cover large areas in a shorter amount of time compared to ground surveys, resulting in faster data collection and analysis.
- Safety: Aerial surveying can eliminate the need for surveyors to physically access difficult or hazardous terrain, reducing the risk of accidents.
- Accuracy: The use of high-resolution cameras and sensors allows for precise data collection, resulting in more data to provide more accurate maps and models.
- Versatility: Aerial surveying can be used for a variety of purposes such as mapping and volumetric analysis.
Also Available for Imaging
In addition to aerial survey services, our UAVs are also equipped with imaging capabilities. This means we can capture high-quality aerial images and videos for various purposes including house placement previews, view analysis, and construction monitoring of as-built conditions.
Common Settings and Applications for Aerial Surveys
There are several industries and applications where the use of UAV aerial surveys has proven to be highly beneficial. These include:
- Land Development: Aerial surveys can provide a visual reference for potential land developments, as well as rich topographic data in certain circumstances..
- Construction: UAVs can capture accurate topographic data for planning and monitoring construction projects.
- ALTA & Commercial Land Surveys: Aerial surveys can assist in mapping commercial sites by picking up vast amounts of information that is used in drafting ALTA or commercial land surveys..
- Volumetric Surveys: The use of drones for aerial surveys can also be used for measuring and calculating stockpile volumes..
