Depending on the altitude above ground level, an accuracy of 1-2 cm ground spacing distance between pixels is what we deliver, which is survey grade in most cases. For volumetric surveys, the accuracy is within 1-3% of true volume. If ground control points are used, the map will be Geo-referenced and will be spatially aligned with the earth’s surface.

No, we can stream video inspections in real-time and in HD to your computer screen. You can pick an area of interest and we will capture it in 4K for more detailed analysis later

Typically most mapping projects can be done in 4 hours. To process the images takes the most time, usually 4 hours for every 15 minutes of flight time to create a detailed map.

There are several factors that determine a map’s accuracy and precision, with the weather being the most important. Lighting plays a huge role, if it is overcast we can fly at any time, whereas if it is sunny, it is best to fly around noon. The wind is also a factor, like any aircraft a drone is subject to wind gusts which will impact the precision of the image captured and the accuracy of the map overall.

If we are within 5 nautical miles, of an airport, we will have to file a flight plan with Nav Canada and get approval. Public events, disaster scenes, and wildfires are some other examples of where we are restricted in flying unless approval has been granted.

Because the files are so large, they have to be shared through a link, instead of an email.

We have a 4-hour minimum charge, contact us to get our rates which are dependent on the task requested.
