Question 1

What is an aerial survey?

Accepted Answer

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.
