Here's some tips & frequently asked questions on how to find the right aerial surveyor for your job
Aerial surveying collects important data from geomatics and imagery via unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones. The aerial surveying method is more effective, simpler and safer than traditional land surveying as it does not require a team to walk the desired land, taking precise measurements, and handling equipment in rough terrain. Aerial survey drones take high definition imagery from various angles and create millions of data points of elevation and colours.
Aerial surveying is mainly used to collect large amounts of survey data and imagery in a short time on complex projects via UAVs and drones. Other beneficial uses of aerial surveying include:
Safely tracking progress on projects
Providing the best solutions for large areas
Surveying, mapping, volumes
Georeferenced orthophotography
Visualisation and simulation
Environmental and coastal monitoring
Land and vegetation classification (NDVI)
Visual inspection
Aerial survey hire rates are dependent upon experience. Therefore, an experienced drone surveyor in Australia will cost between $175 and $255 per hour for survey work. Many preparations are necessary, such as weather checks, drone take-offs and landings, appropriate imagery overlap, and correct software. These variables are all necessary to obtain accurate data.
