Bathymetry Survey

3D Factory.

At South West Surveys we run our own in-house drone operations with fully insured, CAA approved pilots.

Drones are a fantastic tool to our surveying arsenal, collecting data from otherwise out of reach places and areas of high risk such as railways, motorways, dilapidated structures or small islands. Covering large areas of land, from open farmland to woodland, our lidar system can penetrate tree canopies and map the ground beneath. Drones can provide you with a wealth of data including plant health and vigour, weed location and density, precise area measurements and elevation changes across your land.

Using our 42mp camera we can provide a set of jpg images, which can also be supplied as a rich 3d pointcloud. This can be for sites in their entirety, or to complete pointcloud datasets where a terrestrial laser scanner would not reach.

Here at South West Surveys, we offer a full measured building survey service, compromising of floor plans, internal & external elevations, sections and roof plans. All of these can be supplied as a stand-alone service or a complete measured building service.

Our choice of technology, laser scanning, is quick, precise and unobtrusive. We can carry out our work without disturbance to the fabric of the building and with minimal disturbance to the occupants. At South West Surveys we cover all of the UK, with many jobs being local to us in Bristol, Bath, Cheltenham and Gloucester. We work on a range of projects, from small properties to all types of industrial buildings, warehouses, retail spaces, historic and listed buildings.
