Local Expertise
Our operations in Derby are managed by CAA GVC certified pilots with extensive experience in the Derbyshire area. We understand the specific airspace challenges of Derby, including local restricted zones and coordination requirements.
Standard photogrammetry cannot see through trees or thick vegetation, making it difficult to map true ground levels in forested or overgrown areas. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) uses laser pulses to penetrate the canopy, delivering accurate terrain data where other sensors fail.
