UAV/Drone Mapping
Today, old techniques in the field of maps have been replaced by technological and digital environments. Photogrammetry and remote sensing are examples of digital media. With the constantly changing imaging systems as well as its complexity, some difficulties arise. For this reason, both in terms of cost and when a simple-based system is established, changes are made in mapping techniques as the time is used well. In this context, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) has entered our lives with the aim of both demanding and precise application and meeting the need in a shorter time. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are vehicles that are also called a drone, with a non-metric camera positioned on it, which are capable of aerial imaging, photographing and record keeping. Projects made with UAVs have been the subject of articles and their use in different project categories has been investigated. MACOM Environment and Energy uses these unmanned aerial vehicles for the purpose of mapping.
Drones, with the name of the most known and popular today, have the features of recording and monitoring by keeping the air in a certain time by ventilating it with a mechanism. Drones must have the mapping feature to be able to map. They should be run with a correct mechanism without skipping the coordinates.
Mapping Steps with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
Firstly, a suitable Unmanned Aerial Vehicle must be selected. As a result of its popularization and industrialization, unmanned aerial vehicles have been produced according to different types, quality, and purpose. A good quality Drone will give you more efficient work. Our Drone vehicle we have is a very good quality vehicle.
To make mapping with unmanned aerial vehicles, a field visit must first be made. The suitability of the field for shooting on that day is checked (there should be no elements such as excessive wind, rain). It is necessary to be careful where to shoot. Shooting should not be done on very tall buildings and people. It will be good to start shooting in an empty area to avoid an accident.
Before the shooting, a map plan should be made, and the plan should be prepared on a plan by preparing how they will start from where the shooting will start. At the same time, the altitude you will fly will affect both the shooting time, the number of photos and the pixel quality of the photo. That’s why it’s important to determine a suitable height.
Finally, it is necessary to choose a web-based platform for the mapping feature. This web-time platform, which can be computer or mobile application, will be a mechanism that controls the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. Thanks to this, the coordinates will be entered completely and sent to the exact point.
Drones going to the entered coordinates take pictures from above, following the region; After taking these photos in memory, the photos taken are transferred to your computer by finding a suitable program. UAVs have the ability to photograph each frame in the coordinate sent and taking two different perspectives from the same frame is very important for image quality and mapping. As you can see, the details and tricks of the vehicle must be known when working with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. Therefore, it will be more efficient for you to work with a specialist company. MACOM is always with you with its professionalism in this regard.
The photos transferred to the program are analyzed by MACOM Environment and Energy and present the map with the best quality and resolution. By applying this method created with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for almost all your project works, we can create maps and 3D maps for your projects. For a company that follows the technology, such innovative applications will always keep its competitors ahead of time and efficiency. You can contact us for my application.
