Mission Planning Good planning and preparation is key to the safe acquisition of high quality high accuracy drone mapping and modelling data. From the legal aspects of flying a drone, to ground control to the data capture strategy we plan each aspect to ensure you get the drone data you need. We have extensive experience of working in congested areas, sites of special scientific interest (SSSIs) and complex industrial sites - including top tier COMAH sites. We execute surveys regularly that are over 800 HA, these missions involve many flights, onsite logistical support (power, welfare etc) and can produce terabytes of source data. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/8c019e09-0d62-454e-ba8c-a3188c83698a/IMG_3360.jpeg Drone Survey and Mapping - WingtraOne GEN II WingtraOne GEN II has a unique set of features that make it an ideal platform for surveying and mapping. It is a vertical take off and landing drone, this means it can operate in more confined areas than a traditional fixed wing drone. With a cruise speed of 36mph and high resolution cameras, on site data capture is very efficient - able to capture up to 100Ha in a single flight in about an hour. Equipped with a survey grade GPS it delivers highly accurate models without excessive ground control points. The ground breaking oblique payload enables the production of high quality digital twins that can be captured very efficiently.

When we go beyond the models and process the data into charts we use a range of tools dependant on the client requirements and we work with partners who specialise in different types of data. If you need simple charts or complex drawings of every elevation we can help. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/0fe3fe0a-d4f4-4984-9ec8-1126f9a6a30d/M300+P1+Radar+2.jpg Drone Survey and Mapping - DJI M300 and P1 The DJI M300 is paired with the 45MP DJI P1 camera to provide a great multirotor based platform for photogrammetry data capture. The flexibility of a multirotor drone enables vertical scanning of objects and very close photography to create mm levels of detail in models (usually for heritage buildings). The M300 is equipped survey grade RTK GPS that can deliver highly accurate photogrammetry surveys to our customers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/848e53a1-4feb-46dd-8054-86dfd5d4f047/IMG_1475.jpeg Drone Survey and Mapping - Establishing quality A drone survey needs to be accurate and you also need to be able to verify this. To meet these needs we use drones with survey grade GNSS equipment on board and we establish ground control using survey grade GNSS systems. The quality of the equipment and how we use it enables us to produce high accuracy surveys every time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/00fad55a-085d-4336-88a7-c1d33cb23edf/goolgeplot.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/8c019e09-0d62-454e-ba8c-a3188c83698a/IMG_3360.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/9f1ec19a-c682-4195-8813-e500ea0139e4/chart3.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/da7117b4-d75b-466c-8007-55af4c349caf/MAX_1496+2.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/adaa7adc-84c3-4d76-96c7-f095e5b75b3f/small+train.jpg https://www.droneflight.co.uk/about daily 0.75 2022-10-24 https://www.droneflight.co.uk/uxo daily 0.75 2023-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/85bfe3e2-1da2-4021-98df-6477bd938dbf/Picture-2-1.jpg Drone UXO Survey - Establishing quality For a UXO drone survey to be useful it needs to be accurate and you need to verify its efficacy on site. Appropriate surrogates need to be used in a test area to confirm they can be identified by the magnetometer in this site context. The location needs to be accurately measured with a survey grade GNSS and this compared with the data collected from the drone. This process is key to a survey you can trust. In addition it is critically important to calibrate the flight plan (speed, height above ground) to the target and terrain. Flying higher makes avoiding vegetation easier, too high and critical targets will disappear. Flying faster makes the survey quicker but noise will increase and the speed needs to work with the sensor sample rate and target types for the survey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/282f47d3-fad6-4bab-8d8d-ef7af4e7d095/bc5330b4-146a-4162-92a1-0765bcae0fa4.jpg Drone UXO Survey - Access all areas One of the key advantages of a drone based survey is that areas that are practically impossible to access using other methods become possible. In the image to the left the area could not be walked over safely but the drone flew over it with ease. It is also important to note that even some areas, like peat bogs for example, can in theory be accessed using tracked vehicles but this is very much slower than using the drone to complete the survey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/728a709c-fb57-48f8-8d82-6378d9b0258b/DSC00430.jpeg Drone UXO Survey - The Sensor Platform Based on the results of your UXO desk top study we can advise if our platform is appropriate for your situation. If you have not completed a study we can arrange for one to be completed for you. This drone is a customised DJI M300 which has a radar system to enable the drone to accurately fly as low as 100cm from the ground and carry a magnetometer. The primary use of this drone is in the detection of UXO in difficult to access areas, but it can be used in other applications: archaeology and ground characterisation. The M300 is also equipped with survey grade RTK gps system to deliver accurate surveys. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/b991f234-93d3-4a92-8c42-32ef6307cc21/P295-2021_TF.jpg Drone UXO Survey - Processing the data After capturing the data we complete initial processing to remove residual noise from the drone. Following an initial quality check the data is packaged and provided to your UXO consultant or our geophysicist can process the data and we can commission a UXO consultant, appropriate to your needs, for you. The image to the right is a relatively small survey completed in central London in an area that was bombed during WWII. It shows a number of possible UXO targets and also some areas of steel re-enforced concrete. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1666627960265-E10S63DW7Q1ZJKDJS1N2/IMG_8456.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/317b93af-e100-4960-b704-14fa7720a077/SMALL+SR.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/b5d017d2-d859-4404-a943-cfca8be6c5cf/36689499-97a2-4735-9223-4d0d165286e3.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/27b3c719-6456-4431-bcf7-7d15fd4a2ea6/IMG_2261.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1666627962766-YQFXGK1HJO32DTHYHPMT/IMG_9220.jpeg https://www.droneflight.co.uk/inspection daily 0.75 2023-04-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/36bf2be2-eb88-4d90-860f-ba622e481915/DJI_0421.jpg Drone Inspection - High quality visual data We are capturing inspection data with cameras up to 48mpx.

With a 3D model, it is possible to view the asset from any angle, identify issues and even accurately measure them. By leveraging 3D modeling technology, asset owners can improve their ability to manage maintenance and repairs, optimize performance, and ultimately extend the life of their assets. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/393ebe7b-5e88-49ea-b0a5-323c123c0549/DJI_0411.jpg Drone Inspection - High Quality Thermal Data We have the capability to capture high resolution radiometric thermal images and thermal video. Radiometric thermal images contain actual thermal data that can be interrogated and analysed off site. An example of this is in the image to the left. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/03c86850-20ab-437b-a046-cb3e8c9bb6b7/RUST+AI.png Drone Inspection - Use AI to complete faster initial assessments AI can provide support to the inspection process, by leveraging machine learning algorithms, AI can analyze large volumes of data from sensors, images, and other sources to detect many different types issues.

An understanding of the principles of thermography is essential. There is no point planning to look for thermal loss on a building in daylight in the summer. In many situations it is important to capture data at night so careful preplanning is essential. We have extensive experience of working in congested areas, sites of special scientific interest (SSSIs) and complex industrial sites - including top tier COMAH sites. From process plants to large industrial sheds we can help. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/c9726582-80e5-43c6-b3b1-7e79c5dfe3f2/ThermalDJI_0007.jpg Drone Thermography - Solar Installations Solar panels are typically deployed in large installations or on the roof of a building. Both of these situations suit the use of a drone equipped with a thermal camera. A range of issues can be identified: manufacturing defects, cracks, faulty inter-connectors, defective bypass diodes and shadowing. As you can see the defects on the panel are clearly visible on the image on the left. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/724c726f-f699-46eb-bc85-15b28c3a7be6/DJI_0046.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/3a21aa8f-42a6-48e2-b7a0-208d3464ea8c/Faulty+panel+mount.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/650c4b6c-bbf4-436e-9c1c-e33afb000b22/ThermalDJI_0075.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/6bbd8319-78ab-40ed-b32c-221d24756c9b/00_00.93.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/eeb2a3d2-dabe-414a-9f51-867531f0c967/DJI_0035.jpg https://www.droneflight.co.uk/casestudies daily 0.75 2023-01-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1650732938313-9OM2JKMQFW35G9WQT2K1/Overview.jpg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1650733120173-8YMAMM8T7EIHV3FWPKFJ/Image+23-04-2022+at+17.57.jpg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/8e3cf448-8442-48ed-8904-17b9fe6e693a/Faulty+panel+mount.JPG Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/7bda2246-21bd-4d1f-ba86-b74312ab72ff/DJI_0086.JPG Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/48b5ce42-1bba-43ac-ac6f-55f37e1b1db1/DJI_0023.jpg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1650733259109-MRV8KUUTSVJ8FD6J6XW5/IMG_4058.jpeg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1650729126496-2HPYG01YP70STNN208II/FACF2886-1D77-4ED7-8DCD-66593C6D231F.jpeg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1650729222275-G98VXM39VY9AXNPAXJ9N/865814D9-B06C-4D61-9EBE-CA502B4B0662.jpeg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/317b93af-e100-4960-b704-14fa7720a077/SMALL+SR.jpg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/b6a2458b-0814-45b5-95dc-650cae3a056d/Nenthead-4.png Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/00fad55a-085d-4336-88a7-c1d33cb23edf/goolgeplot.jpg Case Studies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/8f988ae2-933b-4424-8caf-62f7d26a2693/Overview.JPG Case Studies https://www.droneflight.co.uk/uxosurveyriverthames daily 0.75 2022-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/301ded90-b5dc-489a-8549-c2eb579955e1/IMG_4058.jpeg UXO Survey -

The flexibility of a multirotor drone enables vertical scanning of objects and very close photography to create mm levels of detail in models (usually for heritage buildings). This setup provides a powerful platform for creating a digital twin. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/50147a7a-4857-4679-9573-b6a896bacca4/Capture.JPG Digital Twins - What is a digital twin? A digital twin is a virtual replication of a physical object or process. It’s more than just a 3D model it’s a representation that contains all of the data relevant to the object. A complex digital twin could have sufficient data to complete simulations of using the object or process or it could contain all the details needed to manage the object (building) over its life. Drones act as airborne scanners which can turn buildings/construction sites into 3D models in a process called photogrammetry. Clearly a drone can’t capture all of this rich data, but it can capture the physical model and form a starting point for a more detailed model. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/87d4d145-19f7-4dee-960c-687dbf872ed4/Bishops+Palace.jpg Digital Twins - Processing the data We process our data using industry leading tools and for a detailed mesh model we use Bentley Context Capture. The model to the left was captured using the Wingtra One GEN II drone at 110m above ground level, using the oblique camera.

Giant Hogweed is particularly dangerous to humans. Traditional approaches to identification and mapping these, involve people on the ground, often in difficult terrain and this is relatively slow. Right is an image of a multispectral analysis of giant hogweed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/e6f28461-e40e-4bc9-9e8b-0045342c2866/20220426_132707.jpg Invasive Species Mapping - Ground Truthing Ground truthing is a key part of the process of zoning the captured maps. It is important to have a number of verification points where the species has been identified to enable a check of the zoning process. Where this process is completed using an AI platform the ground truth is used to teach the AI platform. Ground truthing is also key when looking to identify new species that we have not analysed before. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/f8958d47-b806-4151-8951-26760505f127/Hogweed_April_2022_RGB+%285%29.jpg https://www.droneflight.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2025-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/c9897bc6-dba1-4d7b-b1e7-172a45a9a7ba/MB1.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/946cbe89-bb2c-41af-9cef-ee2e41c20f45/P295-2021_TF.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1673601790648-Y8MLYZGL1IWBV52V3QR2/side.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1673601915075-26W5POR72E9N0GBCWBG0/Hogweed_2022_April_Multispectral.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/6bbd8319-78ab-40ed-b32c-221d24756c9b/00_00.93.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/b5c11c0c-cfc9-4415-afa9-8efbe636e033/Speedip+V2+%289%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/4f192487-8d91-4158-adb3-1f54e163544f/DJI_0056.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/5e1ad7cc-b85e-462b-9991-badc443c3001/pla_logo.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/5bd2916e-c4d5-4edc-ac70-6166e13cec6c/AECOM-Logo.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1673624295025-6IRA4PC9TZ2YTWCY283D/Logo-Veolia-1024x1024.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1673624415647-RM9B07END03HQM7WDT62/Teesworks_Logo_Animation_ImagePlaceholder.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/1673624774129-LSRCAFDSYMLG0AXNRPPN/Hounslow-Council-crest.jpg Home https://www.droneflight.co.uk/contactuxo daily 0.75 2023-10-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/317b93af-e100-4960-b704-14fa7720a077/SMALL+SR.jpg https://www.droneflight.co.uk/dronewatersampling daily 0.75 2023-09-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/6e949d8a-5ecc-40eb-8c02-78b522498f81/Speedip+V2+%288%29.jpg Drone Water Sampling - Sample collection The system is designed to adjust the movement speed of the capture container throughout the process to ensure more precise depth control and representative water samples. In the event of the container being trapped there is an emergency release function to ensure the continued safe operation of the drone. There are 4 different container types enabling different sample sizes and the capture of corrosive liquids. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/221ec58c-c1d5-4ba1-85eb-2eada2fd7046/Speedip+V2+%286%29.jpg Drone Water Sampling - The sampling platform We are able to capture water samples in difficult to access locations at definable depths. With a built in mm wave radar the height of the drone above the water can be accurately measured and the system automatically captures a sample at the required depth. The drone is also equipped with survey grade RTK gps system to deliver accurate location data for sample collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6252872ceb475264c1c338e9/b5c11c0c-cfc9-4415-afa9-8efbe636e033/Speedip+V2+%289%29.jpg
