Stephen Scott, Senior Land UAV/LiDAR Inspector, was on hand to explain the capabilities and flexibility of using drones for survey work.

An invaluable aid on technically demanding projects, the drone’s ability to produce high-res images and output data to create integrated bathymetrics comes into its own in near-shore coastal environments such as mapping inaccessible cliff areas. Other areas include asset management and asset inspection such as dock wall surveys, blade inspections for windfarms/ renewable energy companies, and flood plain mapping.
