Surveying and Mapping with DJI M300 RTK  ZP1 or DJI Z L2 LIDAR

   Since 2013 VAP has the right survey drone survey solutions for your business.

 ►  Using RTK: (Real Time Kinematics with our RTK Mobile Ground Station) and the new ZP1 45 MP full-framed survey camera payload can achieve survey grade accuracies. Using the new L2 LiDAR we can achieve a relative average of 2.5 cm and get through vegetation!

► Workflows using BC Land Surveyors: Given the high demands of precision, variables and legal framework, VAP always uses a professional and reputable, certified BCLS ( BC Land Surveyors) to confirm GCP (Ground Control Points/Targets) direct and processes legal land surveys. 

►  Reliability is Key: Precision and quality control for drone orthomosaics and land survey mapping is extremely high. Quality deliverables cannot be achieved with non RTK, consumer grade drones and their smaller sensors.

►  Non-Legal, Reference Only Deliverables?  Customers may request data to be used for general reference/non-legal use only. If this is the case, we can acquire the high-quality, RTK corrected ZP1 photo data for delivery. You may process it, or we can using quality software for mapping or 3D models. This is suitable for those who want data which is non-legally binding. 

► Surveying Stockpiles with Drones: Significantly faster and less obtrusive to daily processes than traditional base-and-rover methods. Volume Metrics at Victoria Air Photos and Survey  is intended to make surveying workflows—and, thus, all earthwork operations—more efficient 

Who we work with?

► VAP works with qualified BC Land surveyors, government officials, land developers, architects  and engineers who benefit from accurate, legal drone data. Our hardware systems are continually proving to be powerful tools, simultaneously providing leaps in efficiency and safety. 

 ► What is a drone survey? 

A drone survey is mostly an autonomous, computer controlled flight in which a survey conducted from overhead using a drone (RPAS).

RTK RPAS Surveying is the new precise science of determining the positions of, and the distances between, points in 2D and 3D space. It is rapidly becoming the go to tool for various survey application including topographical and volumetric calculations 

More examples:

►  When surveying challenging terrain, drones make it unnecessary for human operators to physically access and measure points in hazardous or difficult-to-reach locations. Highways are examples of dangerous areas for ground crews to work.

►  Additionally, while traditional surveying methods require meticulous measurement, preparation, and planning, the right M300/P1/L2 RPAS flown skillfully, can capture comparable CM accurate data in dramatically shorter time frames. 

 ► Using our drone services with the RTK M300 with ZP1 or L2  produces quality results quickly, and adds to profitably/low cost! 

► What kinds of deliverables can you achieve with drone surveying? 

With our PRO grade Sensors and surveying software, P1 adn L2 surveying can produce Orthomosaics, Contour DXF (AutoCAD), LAS files, RAW Elevation Value (DEM) 3D Models, LAX Files, Point Clouds, Contour SHP (Shapefiles),  Stockpile Analysis, and a host other supported exports formats, layers and many other files types by request. Possibilities are endless!
