Deliverables

Experts in data capture and analysis, we transform data into actionable insights through customized deliverables.

Ortho Imagery

Ortho Imagery

An orthophoto, orthomosaic or orthoimage is an aerial photograph geometrically corrected so that the scale is uniform. Unlike an uncorrected aerial photograph, an orthophoto can be used to measure true distances because it is an accurate representation of the Earth’s surface, having been adjusted for topographic relief, lens distortion, and camera tilt.

LAS Point Cloud

LAS Point Cloud

A point cloud is a set of data points in a coordinate system. In a three-dimensional coordinate system, these points are usually defined by X, Y, and Z coordinates, and often are intended to represent the external surface of an object. LiDAR scanners and Drones gather point measurements from real-world objects or photos for a point cloud that can then be translated to a 3D mesh or CAD model.

Stockpile Volume

Stockpile Volume

Generate 3D models and accurate volumes of indoor and outdoor stockpiles. Our LiDAR laser scanning and Aerial Data reporting help you survey stockpiles safely, accurately and efficiently to meet reporting and contractor deadlines.

Cut and Fill Calculations

Cut and Fill Volume Calculations

We reduce the manual work needed to perform a cut-and-fill. Once LiDAR or Drone Aerial Data is collected, our DARP platforms enables cloud processing and export into native Autodesk file formats like an RCS, a point cloud file that can be used in AutoCAD.

Topographic CAD

Topographic CAD

Our Data Analysis and Reporting platforms uses LiDAR and Drone Aerial Data to provide all data points necessary to create fast and reliable terrain models, contours and volume calculations.

Stockpile work is what we live and breathe but it's not without it's challenges. When faced with the task of underground scanning, our tech worked from the ground up to provide the measurements needed for our client's hard-to-reach stockpiles. Climbing out of a cave with the VZ400, he produced results with a creative approach. Jeff is new to the team and is already living our value of innovation through his work as a Field Tech. He joins Firmatek as a @marines vet and a graduate of @embryriddle. His helpful attitude shows he can take on new challenges and apply his experience to create dynamic solutions. #mining #lidar #undergroundmapping #data #tech #innovation

Firmatek drone pilot, Matt Torres, inspects 230 kv transmission lines looking for broken strands, tower burn marks, dark spots and damping issues. These structures were built in 1937 and 1966 and still serve a major metro area in the US, so regular maintenance is crucial to their functional success. Experts from Preformed Line Products standby to assess the results. @preformedco #utilities #uav #drone #mapping #inspection #cvi #data #tech #dronepilot

We invest in a lot of R&D before deploying new solutions. UAV LiDAR systems are constantly evolving, so the L1 LiDAR sensor is something our team has spent a lot of time diving into. We've found that the L1's ease of use is an asset to our field force. The data it collects is accurate, it's plug and play feature with the M300 is a time saver, and flight planning is far easier than a lot of other systems on the market right now. This isn't an ad for the L1. But it is a testament to the time and research our team invests to make sure we continue to use the right tool for the job. At the end of the day, it's always about finding better solutions for our clients in the most advanced ways possible. #dji #drones #uav #lidar #data #mapping #mining #construction #solutions #operations #leadership #datavisualization
