Point Cloud Drones

Providing technologically advanced drone-based surveying to Atlantic Canada

Our Services

Orthoimagery

Convenient georeferenced snapshot from above. Unlike aerial photos, orthoimages remove displacements (distortions) caused by terrain relief and camera tilts so that every part of the image is a birds eye view.

LiDAR

Rather than employing conventional photo cameras, LiDAR sensors send out rapid laser pulses and capture the reflections off surfaces — using those data points to map out an area with a great deal of both precision and accuracy.

Photogrammetry

The science of of gathering 3D information from photos. The 3D models, point clouds or meshes, are georeferenced and can provide valuable topographic information with direct applications to mining, forestry, agriculture and more.

What We Do

We provide 3D modelling and inspections for a variety of industrial applications.

Our goal is to be a pioneer of technologically advanced applications of aerial platforms, or drones. Using some of the more advanced and cutting edge technologies, LiDAR and photogrammetry, we can collect data in hard to reach places while keeping our pilots and your personnel at a safe distance. Not only does this improve safety, but it cuts costs and provides better data coverage than conventional hand held data collection.

Our pilots have Advanced Operations licenses with Transport Canada, permitting them to coordinate with NavCanada and operate remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) in controlled air spaces. All staff are regularly trained on provincial land industrial safety standards, updated on regulatory changes with our continued education programs. We take safety seriously and have a wealth of experience in implementing and operating under various corporate safety programs.

We operate out of Halifax, Nova Scotia, but work on projects throughout Atlantic Canada. Get in touch to see how Point Cloud Drones can serve you and your projects.
