Drone Site Mapping


Drone Mapping provides a high resolution 2D map of any site. This is useful for clients and organisations who require up-to-date high resolution images providing enhanced detail of their site compared to common internet satellite images. The resulting photo map can then be used to support business operations and planning. Site Mapping can also be useful for finding, picking, or locating stock on a large open storage site.


See the comparison below between common internet satellite imagery and a basic mapping product from AirVantage Drones.

Drone Photo Mapping Comparison Video Demo


This video shows the resolution difference between common internet satellite imagery and the most basic level we can achieve producing a photomap of a site.

Drone Mapping Site Progress Updates


Repeated visits to a site over a period can provide a comparison and show changes over time by overlaying photo maps. This is useful for project management, construction, and other site management operations.


This video shows one stage of a progress map overlayed onto the original June 2022 Google Earth app images. The higher resolution images are from AirVantage Drones mapping in May 2023.
