Introduction
Drone survey is an efficient, cost-friendly, and quick alternative to the traditional survey that requires a lot more time, effort, and can produce inaccurate results. While a team of surveyors had to physically traipse through every square foot of land, drone survey and mapping can finish the job much more effectively, in less time.
The drone technology enables the implementation of a GIS survey or Geographic Information System Survey that captures, tracks, analyzes and stitches different pieces of data from separate drones.
A single flight through the land can collect millions of details in a short amount of time, which is why it has been widely accepted in different industries such as construction, agriculture, civil, and mining. It also reduces all the safety risks that come with traditional surveying.
How does drone survey work?
Drone survey and field mapping has relied heavily on collaboration. A single drone itself can map out a long stretch of land but if the area is too large and uneven, using multiple drones will get the job done quicker, with more accuracy.
Photogrammetry is used to produce image mosaics via software that combines aerial shots, removing all distortions and blurry shots to give you accurate measurements. Aerial shots are combined with ground control points, the software can give you high definition, scalable, orthomosaic map of the land. These enable the engineers to produce 3D models, digital surface models, contour maps, and other important models in different formats.
Our services
SES Digital strives to provide high-quality drone survey and field mapping across all sectors in India.

What can we do for you?
Slope monitoring: Slope collapse can be a geological hazard and must be detected and rectified early to avoid catastrophes. Our team conducts slope monitoring through GIS mapping to recognize the unevenness of the ground using DSM and DTM methods. This data, along with LiDAR survey information is important for slope monitoring, prevention of slope failure, and landslide mitigation.
Stockpile Volumetric Analysis: Drone survey and field mapping are a popular choice for stockpile measurements. Our team can conduct stockpile volume analysis to collect extensive topographic data points that traditional surveys can’t capture because of the irregular and uneven shapes. We can give you accurate data of all the shapes, even their volume. We deliver these photogrammetric data through DSM, contour mapping, and stockpiles with 100% accuracy.
Land surveys: Our customizable drone services enable us to obtain accurate, precise 3D models and topographic data on areas that are inaccessible with traditional surveying. These extensive topographical surveys and land surveys provide the most precise representation of cadastral maps, hassle-free. Our GIS crew then processes the information to generate deliverables like brake lines, orthomosaic models, interactive 3D models, Digital Elevation Models, contours, Digital Terrain Models, and 3D reconstructions of the site.
Conclusion
Drone survey and field mapping are a quick and efficient solution to so many problems the majority of the industries face today. SES Digital can help you find the right solution according to your requirements and budget.
With our team of skilled and experienced professionals, we capture all data faster than all our competitors. All our services are fully customizable, meant to meet even the most challenging projects. From the initial stage to the completion of a project, we provide all support to our clients.
