Drone Services – UAS
Ninyo & Moore offers drone inspection and mapping services to complement the extensive range of geotechnical and environmental services we provide for our clients. Drones have revolutionized the construction, geotechnical, and environmental industries in numerous ways. Photogrammetry, the science of making measurements from photographs, has become the industry standard for mapping and monitoring project sites. Our drones offer mapping and project site monitoring for a fraction of the time and cost of typical survey methods. Stockpile volume calculations, cut/fill analysis, and topographic mapping can be done from the air, often covering much larger areas than a typical ground-based laser survey can easily handle. Drones are also being used for inspections of hazardous conditions and materials, and for assessing structures aerially, which removes the risk of placing workers in high risk situations. Drones can be flown around tall structures or across vast areas for inspection, which offers live views as well as high resolution imagery for further analysis. The ability of drones to offer real-time updates of project conditions and monitoring of onsite assets is truly unmatched. Your entire project team, including those in distant locations, can be provided up-to-date information which saves time and money on site visits.
