LiDAR

LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a method that uses light in a form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges. With our advanced LiDAR sensors, Aero Velocity can offer a wide range of data collection to generate precise, three-dimensional information to cater to our customers needs.

  • Elevation mapping

  • Ground classifications

  • Digital Surfaces Model (DSM) and Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

  • Contour mapping

  • Erosion path mapping

  • Full point cloud data

Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry is the art and science of extracting 3D information from photographs. The process involves taking overlapping photos of an object, structure, or space, and converting them into 2D or 3D digital models. 3D mapping photogrammetry is a powerful technique for creating accurate, detailed, and realistic 3D models from photographic data, with wide-ranging applications in various fields.

  • Orthomosaics - highly detailed, geometrically corrected aerial images created by stitching together multiple photographs, providing a high resolution photo that can be used for measurement, georeferencing, and geometric corrections

  • 3D mapping

  • Archeological site scanning

  • Documenting and analyzing sites and artifacts

  • Industrial site scanning

  • Construction site planning and tracking

  • Building modeling and monitoring

  • Urban planning

Multispectral Imagery

Drones equipped with a multispectral camera have the ability to capture images in different spectral bands, including red, green, blue, near-infrared, and red-edge. The images captured by the multispectral sensors are most often used to provide valuable information on vegetation. Using multispectral data can provide many benefits:

  • Improved crop management

  • Soil health and fertilizer placement

  • Enhanced Environmental monitoring

  • Pin-point mapping

  • Show disease and plant health before visible to human health

  • Give accurate yield prediction and plant counting using algorithms

Thermal Imagery

Thermal imaging cameras, also known as infrared cameras, can detect thermal energy and visualize it as an image. Objects that emit radiation based on temperature emissions can be detect by our drones and the collected data can provide a number of useful insights:

  • Identifying heat leaks in buildings

  • Monitoring wildlife

  • Detecting human presence for search and rescue operations

  • Assessing crop health in agriculture

  • Monitoring equipment and infrastructure for maintenance purposes

Bathymetric

Bathymetric surveys allow us to measure the depth of a water body as well as map the underwater features of a water body. Aero Velocity will be adding this service to our portfolio soon.

  • Measure the depth of a water body.

  • Map underwater features.

  • Illustrate the land below the water surface.

  • Analyze sediment yield in reservoirs or check dams.
