BASIC

$275+

(site & project dependant)

Great for visual inspections, project progress tracking, event maps & other situations where relative accuracy is all that’s needed.

OUTPUTS:

  • Orthomosaic Image: High-resolution map with 2.5 cm/px GSD or under. (.geoTIFF)

  • Photos & Videos: (.jpeg .mp4)

STANDARD

$450+

(site & project dependant)

We utilize an RTK/PPK workflow to collect highly accurate geographic positional data. This is necessary for creating site plans, measuring stockpiles, building 3D models & integrating existing geo-referenced survey data.

OUTPUTS:

  • Orthomosaic Image: High-resolution map with 2.5 cm/px GSD or under. (.geoTIFF)

  • Elevation Contours: At 1ft, 2ft & 3ft intervals (.kmz .shp)

    NOTE: Interpolation will be necessary in areas with > 60% forest cover to create bare earth DEM’s. Accuracy of elevation contours may vary in forested areas.

  • Digital Terrain Model, DTM (.geoTIFF)

  • Digital Surface Model, DSM (.geoTIFF)

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS:

  • Optimized Elevation Contours with reduced noise & artifacts (.kmz .shp)

  • 3D Model (.obj)

  • Point Cloud (.laz .las)

  • Photos & Videos: (.jpeg .mp4)

PRECISION

$675+

(site & project dependant)

Multiple ground control points (GCP’S) are placed on site for projects requiring the highest level of positional accuracy.

OUTPUTS:

  • Same as STANDARD with higher positional accuracy.
