More About Our Services
Mapping
Mapping services can provide customers with high resolution, up-to-date aerial maps of their construction site or property. IAS can create high resolution orthomosaic maps for almost any location. Using autopilot features and post image processing, a series of pictures are stitched together to create a large photo grid of the selected area. Detailed geographical analysis and pre and post planning can be conducted based off the assembled map. The progress of construction or renovation projects can also be documented with successive or time-lapsed aerial mapping.
Example of a high resolution map created with over forty different individual pictures stitched together to form a final image.
Inspection
IAS can provide up-to-date, high resolution images for your mission critical inspection needs. Hard to reach or inaccessible areas such as radio towers and large buildings can easily and safely be inspected using a drone. Real time progress photos of a construction site or project are also possible. Call or email us to learn more about how we can support your current or upcoming inspection or construction project.
