Geospatial technology, including drone surveying, has become fundamental to effective site management and assessment.
Traditional land surveys use methods including collecting manual inspections and measurements using instruments like theodolites, levels and total stations for measuring angles and elevations. These methods present significant challenges, like health and safety risks due to inaccessible areas for surveyors, costly access equipment and operational disruption in large areas.
Drone surveys can support other forms of surveying, like using drones for topographic surveying, measured building surveys and different types of environmental surveys.
At Lucion, we’re leading a technological revolution in land and building surveying methods by delivering advanced drone survey solutions that overcome traditional inspection challenges through the use of LiDAR technology to produce 3D models and by using other drone surveying software. By eliminating these obstacles with the power of drone technology, we provide comprehensive aerial assessments whilst maintaining business continuity. This innovative approach, made possible by modern drone surveying software and drone photogrammetry data, delivers superior data quality in a fraction of the time of conventional methods.
Our drone surveys set new standards in safety performance of drone operations by eliminating working at height risks and reducing the need for surveyors in hazardous areas. Advanced drone technology used by our expert team at Lucion ensures minimal site disruption whilst collecting accurate survey data rapidly to allow operations to continue smoothly during drone surveying projects, with complex assessments completed in hours rather than days.
Drone operations are used to support designers, contractors and house builders by providing aerial images and drone data of the survey area, with regular surveys highlighting any issues ahead of earthworks, mining and other building purposes.
There are numerous benefits of using drone surveys, including their ability to provide accurate data in both a time and cost effective way, improve health and safety for surveyors on site of a drone survey and they provide easy access to hard-to-reach locations.
Other benefits of drone surveying include the ability of drone operations to produce high-resolution imagery using advanced scanning technology to provide unprecedented detail and accuracy, enabling informed decision-making based on comprehensive and accurate survey data. By eliminating the need for access equipment, manual inspections and reducing survey time, drone technology offers significant cost savings without compromising on quality.
At Lucion, our investment in the latest drone technology and continuous professional development ensures we deliver the most advanced drone survey solutions available. Each survey combines innovative and advanced drone technology with expert analysis to provide actionable insights for your project.
Our drone surveys can also be combined with our other survey options, including 3D modelling, boundary surveys and roof condition drone surveys.
