Disaster Response

Natural disasters destroy environments, making it difficult to identify high impact areas in traditional ways. Utilizing drone technology allows for faster data collection and condition assessment.

Nationwide Coverage & Rapid Response

As drone technology improves, applications for its use expand. Drone-based technology significantly impacts our world, with adoption soaring in support of tragic events like natural disasters. By combining drones with high-resolution cameras, one can create 3D maps of disaster sites to provide a clearer image of potential hazards and mitigation options without putting the boots on the ground in harms way.

Natural disasters destroy environments, making it difficult to identify high impact areas in traditional ways. Utilizing drone technology allows for faster data collection and condition assessment. With drones, we can map acres of wildfire damage and collect hundreds of photos to help identify utility pole damage. The collected data can then be uploaded in real time.

Situational Assessments with Aerial Data

An effective disaster response effort begins with a proper situational assessment. Collecting aerial imagery with real-time data processing capabilities provides a comprehensive understanding of the conditions at hand in a safe, timely manner. Our team of experienced field technicians is fully equipped for continuous operations and rapid deployment.

Faster Data Collection

When disasters hit, time management is crucial. Drones help identify damage in hard to reach or dangerous environments faster than manual inspection methods, enabling restoration services to begin rapidly. Because drones can be deployed quickly, they have become a critical part of disaster response efforts.

Increased Safety

In addition to the time saved, exposure to hazardous environments is minimized. By using a drone, you can remotely collect aerial data from environments that are dangerous or contain hazardous materials, greatly reducing the exposure of risk to your surveying team.

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.
