UAV and drone surveying

Drone surveying maps large or hard-to-reach sites from the air, producing orthophotos and surface models. YAZ Development provides UAV mapping tied to survey control for sites in Saudi Arabia.

When you need it

  • Large sites and corridors
  • Progress and volume tracking
  • Orthophotos for planning
  • Areas that are unsafe or slow to survey on foot

How a drone survey runs

  1. Plan flights and ground control
  2. Fly the site
  3. Process imagery into orthophoto and surface model
  4. Check against control and deliver

What you receive

Orthophoto, surface or terrain model and contours, tied to survey control.

Instruments we use

GNSS receivers for positioning, GPR equipment for subsurface detection, and UAV and mobile mapping systems as the scope requires.
