Drone surveying
Drones take high-resolution photos of the terrain, which are georeferenced via GNSS, from which a wide variety of data is derived. Depending on the area of application, cameras are used that record true-color or multispectral images.
The result of a drone flight can be seen on the left. An orthomosaic with a resolution of 2 cm was created from true-color images, while the NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) was derived from the multispectral images. You can switch between the two results using the slider in the middle.
3D models
3D models are used to visualize results in an appealing and easy-to-understand way.
Terrain models
Digital terrain models (DTM) and digital surface models (DOM) can be derived from drone images.
Vegetation indicators
A wide variety of indicator values can be derived from multispectral orthophotos, which allow deductions to be drawn about plant health and soil moisture, for example.
Classification of habitats
By analyzing multispectral orthophotos and various derived indicators (e.g. NDVI), habitats can be automatically identified across large areas. To achieve this, Machine Learning algorithms and AI are utilized.
Aerial photographs
Simple aerial photographs or oblique aerial photographs are ideal for obtaining a clear overview and documenting facts.
Orthophotos
Orthophotos are rectified images that show reality from directly above and at the correct geographical location. Drone images allow orthophotos to be created with centimeter-accurate resolution.
Vegetation checks (Precision Farming)
In agriculture, the condition of arable land can be precisely recorded using multispectral drone images. Conclusions can be drawn about: soil properties, soil cover, nutrient deficiencies, damage from feeding, erosion damage, drainage, diseases, biomass, fertilizer distribution, moisture, drought stress, edge zone effects, weeds, contaminated sites, game damage and stand density.
Forest monitoring
In forestry, drones can be used for forest inventory, to determine the condition of vegetation, to detect damage and to survey wildlife populations.
Photo and video production
Of course, my drones also allow the recording of attractive photos and videos. Simple photo and video editing is also part of my range of services.
