Geomatics
The new generation of geospatial technologies used by our geomatics experts have been successfully integrated and transferred into cohesive field and desktop environments. These have enhanced the end-user's abilities to collect and analyse diverse and complicated information on coastal zones, geomorphology, transport, distribution, civil and mine engineering and eco-systems.
Commercial projects have addressed issues associated with increased pressure of use, stringent environmental regulations, more intense global scrutiny of natural resources, preventative maintenance, disaster prevention and hazard management.
Our geomatics specialisms include:
- Vertical digital aerial photography
- Digital photogrammetry
- Geographic information systems
- Integration of commercial off-the-shelf components into digital aerial photographic systems
- Field performance testing of airborne systems
- Training and production of operational methodologies and manuals for digital aerial photography and digital elevation model production
- Capturing scaleable, secure, electronically distributable, infrared and true colour vertical aerial photography for near-real-time client-specified applications
- Survey and map production quality control
- Aerial survey logistical support and project management
- Training in digital aerial photography, digital image processing, Differentiated Global Positioning System ground control surveys, digital photogrammetry, map production and geographic information systems
