Drone photogrammetry

Document scale, condition and geometry.

High-overlap aerial imagery can be processed into orthomosaics, point clouds and 3D models for visual assessment, measurement and engineering coordination.

  • Aerial photographic record
  • 3D mesh and point-cloud outputs
  • Repeatable viewpoints for progress or condition comparison
Document scale, condition and geometry.
Screen for patterns that need attention.

Thermal inspection

Screen for patterns that need attention.

Thermal capture can highlight temperature anomalies that guide closer visual or intrusive investigation. Interpretation is tied to operating and environmental conditions.

  • Thermal anomaly mapping
  • Targeted follow-up locations
  • Integrated visual and thermal record

GPR

Locate hidden features before intervention.

Ground-penetrating radar screening supports the location of reinforcement, services and subsurface interfaces, subject to access, material conditions and equipment limitations.

  • Reinforcement and service screening
  • Targeted scan grids
  • Marked-up findings and investigation record
Locate hidden features before intervention.
