📽️ Check out our latest compilation video showcasing the cutting-edge 3D models from our geotechnical surveys created with Pix4D! 🔍 Risk Assessment: We identify and evaluate potential safety hazards such as rockfalls, cliff failures, and landslips, empowering informed decision-making for risk mitigation. 🏗️ Structural Design: Engineers utilize our data to design structures like retaining walls and stop banks, optimizing their effectiveness and safety. 🚁 Inaccessible Area Inspection: With Drone IT's UAV capabilities, we can access and map areas that are otherwise challenging or impossible to reach, ensuring no corner goes unexamined. 🌍 Fault Line Assessment: Our technology aids in assessing fault lines, contributing to a better understanding of geological conditions and potential seismic risks. 🛰️ Real-world Applications: Assessed and monitored a major landslide on Clifton Beach, Hawke’s Bay. Monitored ongoing rockfalls across a 10km stretch of coastal cliffs. Inspected and assessed the cliff faces of Bluff Hill for potential failures. Conducted post-cyclone analysis of specific natural hazards.

Post Cyclone Gabriel surveying remains a significant part of our workload. We've completed our largest survey to date, using LiDAR, photogrammetry, and terrestrial surveying techniques to capture over 8km of streams and 400Ha of surrounding flood plain land. Our UAV fleet, including the DJI M300 with P1 and L2 LiDAR, Mavic 3 Enterprise RTK, and Trinity F90+ fixed-wing survey plane, played a crucial role in this achievement. All collected data was vectorized, providing survey data in a traditional form ready for engineers to use in various applications, such as designing stop banks and flood scenario modeling. Additionally, we squeezed in some aerial photography jobs, capturing stunning footage of Hawkes Bay's best locations. Notably, we had an early morning mission to record a large industrial plant lift and placement by crane, flying under the CAA's shielding provisions until daybreak.

Excited to share a new video showcasing our latest 3D models created with Pix4D! By utilizing advanced UAV capture techniques, we generate high-density, high-resolution colorised point clouds and 3D meshes. These models are invaluable for engineers and architects in design, analysis, visual rendering, clash detection, and inspection. We also integrate UAV point clouds with laser-scanned data to develop comprehensive BIM models.

The Tech- Our newest payload addition is the DJI Zenmuse L2 mounted on our M300. What sets this beauty apart? It shoots laser pulses at a staggering rate of 240,000 per second, capturing a whopping 1.2 million points per second! And don't worry about drowning in data. We've got the post-processing covered to make it easy for you. But here's where it gets really exciting: thanks to its ability to record up to five returns per pulse, our LiDAR can penetrate through dense foliage and tree canopies with ease. Even if a pulse gets interrupted by leaves or branches, as long as it hits the ground and bounces back, we've got those ground points locked in. Plus, weather is no match for our LiDAR! Whether it's glare, shadows, or even night-time, this bad boy delivers. And with an impressive +/-30mm accuracy at a 100-meter flight altitude, you can trust it to get the job done right every time.
