Government Bodies
Government Department needs are particularly well suited to the benefits that aerial surveying can offer where survey and GIS requirements cover large areas, have private access issues or cover sensitive/inaccessible land. Aerial surveys have the added benefit of producing ortho-rectified images (backgrounds) and true colour dense point clouds. With over 10 years of experience as a senior surveyor in local government, our Chief pilot is experienced in delivering the surveying and administrative requirements of government departments.
The ability to capture high resolution photos allows a permanent record and analysis of sites at any point in time.
