Environment (Agriculture, Water & Archaeology)

Agriculture

By using aerial photography as an analytical tool it is possible to view bou ndaries, useage and drainage issues with ease.

Archaeology

Aerial photography is one of the best ways of understanding archaeological landscapes, because it reveals and makes sense of features which are too faint, too large or too discontinuous to be appreciated at ground level.

Awareness of the Environment

Aerial photography gives the ability to keep track of change to the environment. Comparing modern and historical imagery enables a comparison of changes over the years.

Coastline Management

Monitor coastlines immediatley or over the course of time using several years or imagery, aerial photography gives a visual representation of the coastal system without the need to visit each and every location.

Environment

The most obvious advantage of viewing aerial photography is its ability to give a real world depiction of the earth surface. This is ideal for any environmental analysis where it is important to know what is on the ground.

Environmental Impact Assessment

Being able to visualise how changes to our surroundings will effect the local and more widescale area is a valuable tool for assessing any environmental change. Aerial photography gives this useful tool to everyone.

Erosion Studies

By comparing past and present aerial photography datasets it is possible to visualise the change of the environment over time due to erosion. This gives a powerful tool to allow the prediction of future erosion and plan its affects on the environment.

Fleet Monitoring

Combine aerial imagery with modern GPS tracking systems to see exactly where your fleet is at this particular time. Give guidance to your drivers and ensure that they get to their destination on time via the most fuel efficient route.

Forest Planning

Use aerial photography to plan new areas of forests accorind to the surrounding areas. Ensure that the new planations are put in the most effective areas and that space is used to its maximum effect.

Geology

Use aerial photography and height data to identify the geology of a particular area. The geology can often be identified by the type of vegetation growing on it and the gradient of slopes.

Irrigation

Plan irrigation systems for a number of purposes from farming to golf courses with aerial photography. Combine this with height data to increase the efficiency and accuracy of the irrigation systems.

Land Classification

Use aerial photography to classify different parcels of land using a standard or non-standard classification. Build up a land-use record of a specific area which can be used across a range of industries.

Land Use

Aerial photography is the ideal tool to identify different land-uses in both urban and rural environments.

Land Fill

Monitor landfill sites in their real world location with aerial photography. Assess the impact on the enviroment and plan future developments to ensure maximum efficiency.

Modelling and Prediction

Aerial photography, height data including terrain and LiDAR are all invaluable in modelling and prediction, including pollution, noise, light, flooding etc.

Noise Modelling

Aerial photography, height data including terrain and LiDAR are all invaluable in the noise modelling process, which is of growing interest due to EU regulations.

Pollution Monitoring

View the potential hazards of pollution and use aerial photography to aid in the planning of effective pollution dispersion.

Regeneration

Developers, local authorities and planners find aerial phototgraphy an invaluable resource in the identification of potential regeneration and redevelopment sites. Historic aerial photography is also used in conjuction to assess how a site has changed.

Surveying

Before a detailed ground survey is carried out aerial phtotogrpahy is used to plan the survey and assess the lie of the land. Survey results can be plotted over the aerial phtogrpahy to put it in to reasl world context.

Vegetation Studies

Using high resolution photography it is possible to accurately identify and map different vegetation types and classes and thereby reducing fieldwork and improving management.
