Aerial Mapping for Small Areas
Ard has the ability to quickly collect highly detailed geospatial data of smaller areas using customized UAV Drone Systems. Once data collection is complete, streamlined data processing allows for speedy end product deliveries.
At the standard flying height of 120 meters above ground level we achieve a Ground Sampling Distance (GSD) of 4cm.
The Ard UAV Drone system has major advantages over traditional aerial photography. The system is highly transportable. Mobilization is quick and the system is available on a short notice. The UAV operate below cloud coverage, making it less dependent on weather conditions.
Ard UAV System consists of small aircraft with autopilot and camera, software for flight mission planning and flight operations. In autonomous mode the autopilot controls the location-triggered image exposures with the help of on-board GPS and IMU.
Applications
Aerial Lidar Survey |
The real advantage of UAV based LIDAR is the ability to penetrate through vegetation to reach the ground, capturing the ground surface accurately and producing a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) with great detail. Ard can perform LIDAR aerial surveys of both surface terrain elements and man-made structures. The combination of LIDAR scanning technology with an aerial drone platform allows for exceptional efficiency and speed for gathering accurate spatial data to support various industries, such as architecture and engineering, power generation and transmission, oil and gas, and others. |
Topographic Survey |
Our aerial surveys provide high resolution orthomosaics and dense point clouds, as well as detailed Digital Surface Models (DSM) and Digital Terrain Models (DTM) which can be exported to various CAD formats. The high quality data is suitable for detail design and planning tasks. |
Quarry Sites |
UAV survey technology allows our team to take off and land from a safe vantage point overlooking the quarry to create accurate 3D CAD models for calculating accurate volume measurements of Quarry Sites. |
Stockpile Survey |
We can quickly and safely help your company survey Stockpiles that are difficult to access on foot, and produce accurate and reliable data as you move forward your cut-and-fill quantity analysis. |
Landfill Sites |
We understand the landfill environment and possess the specialist knowledge required to conduct drone aerial surveys safely and effectively, considering the hazardous working environments presented by the landfill sites. |
Route Survey |
Ard has experience in survey and mapping operations for road, railway and pipeline design and construction projects. Our survey services include preliminary route evaluation and detail route selection, centerline topographic and right-of-way survey. |
