High-resolution aerial capture — flown on the DJI Matrice 400 carrying a Phase One iXM full-frame survey camera — processed to survey accuracy with RTK / PPK control and independent checkpoints.
From a single flight we build a calibrated orthomosaic and a photogrammetric 3D surface: the basis for terrain models, contours, volumes and multi-temporal change detection, alongside weed-density and vegetation-condition layers. Everything is delivered in the coordinate system and formats your team already works in.
DJI Matrice 400 with Phase One iXM full-frame survey camera. RTK / PPK georeferencing with surveyed ground control and independent checkpoints.
Orthomosaics down to 0.2 cm/pixel GSD, DSM / DEM, contours, volumes, point cloud and GIS layers — accuracy verified and reported per project.
Mine and infrastructure survey, rehabilitation and landform monitoring, offset baseline and condition, stockpile reconciliation, erosion and drainage.
What comes back from a flight
Mapping
- Orthomosaics — high-resolution, georeferenced RGB
- 3D point cloud — colourised, photogrammetric
- Weed-density and vegetation-condition layers
- GIS-ready feature and boundary layers
Terrain & measurement
- Digital surface and elevation models (DSM / DEM)
- Contours and cross-sections to your interval
- Volumes — stockpile, cut / fill and earthworks
- Multi-temporal change detection
ApplicationsMine & infrastructure survey · rehabilitation & landform monitoring · offset baseline & condition · stockpile reconciliation · erosion & drainage.
Built for your GIS and survey environment
- Coordinate system
- Delivered in your nominated datum and projection — e.g. GDA2020, MGA Zone 55 / 56. We work to your coordinate system, not ours.
- Accuracy & control
- RTK / PPK georeferencing with surveyed ground control and independent checkpoints; orthomosaics down to 0.2 cm/pixel GSD (typically 1.5–2.5 cm for broadacre survey), accuracy verified and reported per project.
- Formats
- Raster (GeoTIFF / ECW), vector / GIS (SHP, GeoPackage, KML / KMZ) with attribution and areas, CAD (DWG / DXF), point cloud (LAS / LAZ), plus CSV and PDF map products.
- Certification
- Survey-grade outputs certified by our RPEQ surveyor; environmental deliverables reviewed by our ecologist / Suitably Qualified Person.
- Data handling
- All project data held commercial-in-confidence; deliverable ownership and access arrangements set per engagement.
