Reality capture involves collecting detailed spatial data using tools like laser scanners, drones and photogrammetry software. The process creates a digital representation of a physical space, often in the form of a point cloud, 3D model or digital twin.
Our drone-led reality capture surveys achieve millimetre-level accuracy using high-speed 3D laser scanners and RTK GPS. This ensures consistent, reliable data across construction jobsites, assets and architectural planning tasks.
Photogrammetry uses high-resolution imagery to create 3D models, while LiDAR relies on laser pulses to map physical spaces. Both are effective reality capture techniques, and we use the right combination based on the project’s goals, terrain and accuracy requirements.
This depends on the size and complexity of the site. Drone-based reality capture speeds up the collection process significantly, making it much faster than traditional methods of capturing data.
Absolutely. While one of its key applications is to document progress throughout multiple stages of construction or monitor agricultural resources, it’s equally effective for single projects like crash scene documentation, asset inspections or creating as-constructed 3D models.
Yes, all our drone operations comply with UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) regulations. We conduct thorough pre-flight assessments to ensure safe, legal and efficient aerial mapping, even in sensitive environments.
