Safe, Fast and Cost Effective

Drone topographical surveying in mining and quarrying is the safest, quickest and most cost effective method.

High-Precision, Accurate and Reliable

Drone Tech Aerospace Ltd topographical surveying drones are proprietary to DTA, designed and built to reliably deliver precision and accuracy matching terrestrial laser scanning systems.

​

The consistency of our topographical land surveying precision and accuracy has been exhaustively tested with over 6 years working with tier 1 enterprise/corporate clients in the civil-engineering, construction, landfill and recycling, and mining & quarrying industry sectors.

​

During this time we have been able to directly compare our data with datasets captured using other technologies, and with other drone systems.

​

We have also gathered many multiple-datasets for sites where we have conducted repetitive topographical surveys on typically monthly or quarterly frequencies.

​

These multiple datasets have facilitated comparison between the surveys again enabling us to continuously improve our technology and processes.

Video Demonstration of an Online Toolset for Topographical Survey Data

​

The video below demonstrates just some of the capabilities of online tools to view and analyse topographical survey data.

​

Multiple users from different teams, or even suppliers if you wish, can all access the data, make annotations and interact in discussions online regarding the data.

​

Measurements can be taken as you'll see of slopes, areas, and volumes, and even comparisons between different surveys conducted at different points in time can be compared and contrasted.

​

Increased efficiency and teamwork available now.
