Solutions for measurement, inspection and documentation

Faster and more effective:
Surveying from the air

Modern drone systems are clearly superior to conventional surveying technology: They fly over large areas within a very short time - even in terrain that is difficult to access, they accelerate data acquisition and offer the highest precision in surveying and creating terrain models.

Photogrammetry solutions

Photogrammetry is a non-contact and mobile method for object recording. With the help of high-resolution photographs, a two- or three-dimensional georeferenced documentation with a high degree of detail is created.

3D laser scanners - LiDAR systems

LiDAR systems emit laser pulses and detect the reflected light - the distance is calculated from the light travel time. High-resolution point clouds and three-dimensional object images are created as the basis for the most accurate surveys.

Many advantages from surveying with drones

Illustration: Drone automatically surveys a larger area.
Icon: Stopwatch

Speed: more data in less time

In the shortest possible time, a drone flies over a large area and delivers precise data. You determine the flight area and the measurement parameters in advance, and the drone automatically flies the previously planned route. Compared to conventional surveying, drones work much more efficiently, save a lot of time and deliver highly accurate georeferenced data.

Illustration: Drone precisely measures the topography of a riverbed using corridor mapping.
Icon: Photo and magnifying glass

Precision: more accurate data with more efficiency

Drone technology offers a highly accurate and easily accessible database for aerial surveys, mapping and other geoinformation. The flight altitude - known as the ground sampling distance - determines the desired amount of data. The use of ground control points further increases the accuracy. High-precision sensors and modern software make the work of geodata professionals easier.

Illustration: Large areas, buildings and facilities can be quickly digitized using a drone.
Icon: Digialization

Digitization: fast and lossless processing

After the flight, the captured data together with the GPS information from the drone are transferred to post-processing software. The measurement data are highly accurate and, depending on the technology, are available as orthophotos, 3D images or point clouds. With the help of various software solutions, the results can be further processed professionally.

Illustration: By means of different payloads, the drone can be used for different applications, such as large-scale plant inspection, precision farming or surveying.

Flexibility: one drone, many applications

Depending on the requirements, the systems of the drone are configured individually. Within an application, each solution offers a lot of flexibility. If the requirements change, Exabotix can very quickly make adjustments to the configuration through its service and manufacturing on site in Germany. Thus, the drone remains a high-quality and professional working tool for a very long time.

Safety: cover rough terrain without risk

Thanks to automatic or semi-automatic flight operation, you work with the utmost safety. Even projects in hard-to-reach areas or in dangerous terrain are no problem. Sites can be safely surveyed during construction - workers and machines can continue working while the required data is collected.

Which package fits my projects?

You are unsure which aerial survey solution fits your task? We have put together packages that cover numerous different requirements. We will be happy to support you in selecting or putting together the service package that is right for you - from planning and flight to data processing, display and evaluation of the results.

Photogrammetry

Aerial photogrammetry allows surveying and mapping even without ground control points. The aerial image provides a very accurate 3D model, offers natural color reproduction and distortion-free representation of the surface and objects.

LiDAR

The LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) scanner emits light pulses via laser beam and detects the corresponding echo. The system achieves the best possible measurement in terms of height accuracy and can also display surfaces very well. The very accurate point clouds allow precise and post-processable 3D models of landscape and objects to be created - resulting in digital twins, such as of quarries or radio towers.
