Drone Services
We provide:
Aerial photography and video - can be used for inspections or advertising / promotional material. Aerial surveys on buildings until now were extremely expensive. The existing condition of the building would need to be taken into account before sending personnel into and onto the building, and a means of safe access would be needed, often involving the hiring of scaffolding. This method is both time-consuming and expensive.
Aerial 360-degree photos - capture your asset(s) and the whole environment
High-definition 2D maps - covering any size area. In construction, these could be used for logistic plans for pedestrian walkways, material lay-down areas, delivery routes and material lay-down areas. 2D maps taken periodically could also be used during the pre-construction stage prior to works commencing on site to track and communicate species migration off of the site so that construction works can commence without harming the local habitat. 2D maps could also be used when carrying out below-ground infrastructure works where the photo can be overlaid with the CAD drawing(s) to ensure all piping and ducting is installed and positioned correctly.
Photogrammetry - the construction of a 3D model of your asset using a number of photos taken at various locations and angles.
Our service for mapping and photogrammetry is cloud-based, so you can log in at any location. The mapping and 3D models can be viewed in a web browser on a mobile or desktop computer without having to download additional software or create an account for the service.
​
We are certified, holding a General Visual Line of Sight Certificate (GVC). The GVC is a remote pilot competency certificate suitable for VLOS (Visual Line of Sight) operations. We also hold an Operational Authorisation issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).

Digital Twins
Our digital twins are the next-generation way to visualise 3D spaces in a fast, cost-effective solution. Our 3D property virtual tours use an all-in-one capture system that provides both interactive 3D and VR experiences. We create a 3D digital twin of your property, allowing you to show off your space to potential customers and/or clients, providing a fully immersive experience that will allow them to navigate the space at leisure. The 3D virtual tour is presented in HDR 4k photography and can be viewed in multiple ways from your desktop browser, tablet or iOS device.
​
Our digital twins are ideal for the following:
-
Fund Raising for Restoration on Heritage projects;
-
Listing or appraising properties;
-
Holiday Lets;
-
Construction Progress;
-
Assist with As-Built record drawings;
-
Facilities Management;
-
Insurance & Restoration...
We use Matterport cameras and high-density cloud point scans as needed.
We have Matterport Certified lead technicians.
​
Our drone services can also be used to complement the Matterport digital twins we offer. The drone can provide external data to further enhance the digital twin, allowing viewers to see the external characteristics and location of the building and its relationship with its surrounding area.

PROJECTS
Programme management is a key component of effective construction projects. It involves the coordination and control of all project plans, schedules, resources, costs and contractual activities. By monitoring and managing the programme in real time, it ensures that any problems or delays are swiftly identified and rectified while providing ongoing feedback on progress to stakeholders.
The overall benefits of good programme management include improved construction progress, greater health & safety during the project lifetime and increased value for money in terms of efficient use of resources.
Effective programme management relies on accurate tracking and assessment protocols which provide reports on progress. The use of digital twins and drone mapping assist in demonstrating works undertaken and allow main contractors to more accurately communicate progress. A progress review with stakeholders utilising a digital twin of your project makes for a more focused and streamlined meeting. Regular accurate progress reports allow for informed decisions to be made quickly with minimal disruption to on site operations.
