UAV / Drone Survey
Fast, high-resolution aerial mapping, monitoring, and volumetrics.
MapSphere uses survey-grade UAV drones and workflows to deliver high-resolution mapping, inspection, monitoring, and terrain analysis with rapid turnaround.
Drone capture supports everything from topographic mapping and corridor analysis to stockpile volumes, construction monitoring, and asset inspection.

UAV / Drone Survey — common questions
01How accurate is a drone survey?
With RTK/PPK and ground control, drone photogrammetry delivers ±2–5 cm horizontal accuracy and 1–5 cm GSD. UAV LiDAR adds ±3–5 cm with vegetation penetration for bare-earth terrain.
02How do you plan coverage for a large site?
Coverage depends on the required accuracy, terrain, and airspace. We plan missions around those constraints — for large sites we fly multiple ground-controlled blocks and merge them into a single dataset — so the result is matched to the deliverable.
03What deliverables come from a drone flight?
Orthomosaics, point clouds, DSM/DTM, 3D mesh models, contour maps, volume reports, and periodic site-progress maps.
