Surveying is an essential discipline for the development of construction projects. In recent years, the use of drones for the enhancement and improvement of topographic studies has garnered significant industry interest due to its numerous benefits. Below, we will explore some of the key advantages of conducting topographic surveys using drones.
Achieve Cost-Efficient Services
The use of drones equipped with sensors, high-definition cameras, and integrative software allows for the completion of topographic studies over large areas at a significantly lower cost compared to traditional methods. Drones’ ability to cover extensive surfaces in less time reduces labor, transportation, and logistics costs. Additionally, with improvements in battery life, this efficiency will continue to increase, further enhancing practical surveying.
Personnel Safety
One of the major risks in traditional surveying is accessing difficult-to-reach areas such as steep mountains, waterfalls, and unstable terrains. Drones mitigate these risks, and while there is always a potential risk to the equipment, human integrity is preserved, thereby reducing costs associated with workplace accidents.
Greater Accuracy in Less Time
Drones enable topographic surveys over large areas in shorter time frames. This is due to their high-definition cameras, data processing software, and the capability of synchronously transferring information to any computer. It is also worth mentioning other technologies that enhance accuracy, such as high-precision GPS and LiDAR sensors. Speed and precision translate into efficient planning and the ability to make informed decisions swiftly.
Improve the Area Surveyed per Hour Ratio
Thanks to the various software packages used by Acero Estudio, a company specializing in drone surveying, we can plan optimal flight routines to achieve greater area coverage, thereby optimizing the surveying process and increasing the amount of data collected and processed.
Enhanced Data Transfer
Technology facilitates not only data collection but also its transfer and processing. Data captured by drones can be sent and processed quickly using specialized software that allows for efficient topographic tying.
Accelerating the workflow, from data capture to the generation of maps and three-dimensional models, enables surveying professionals and their clients to obtain precise and useful results in a shorter time.
