Remote Sensing

  • Aerial view of a river cutting through hilly terrain with patches of green vegetation, some developed areas, and sports fields nearby.

    UAS Mapping

    Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or “drones” are able to generate orthomosaic maps and elevation models based on photogrammetry.

  • A topographic map showing a river bank area with color-coded elevation levels, highlighting shoreline, steep river bank, and inland terrain with elevation changes.

    Point Clouds/DEMs

    Point clouds are derived from UAS photogrammetry. Elevation models are created for analysis in river restoration and other applications.

  • An aerial view of a winding river flowing through green and brown fields with scattered trees and farmland, rolling hills in the distance, under a partly cloudy sky.

    Monitoring

    Discrete events or disasters are rarely seen coming and can be difficult to monitor effectively and capture accurate data. Drones offer a unique ability to safely monitor and record data.
