UAV Platforms

DJI Matrice 300 RTK

Manufacturer and model: DJI Matrice 300 RTK

A UAV platform of the type used to carry survey and inspection payloads, within the scope agreed for the project.

  • SEC-owned

Overview

The platform is the carrier, not the survey. What a flight produces depends on the payload mounted for the job and on the scope agreed for the project.

Whether a site is surveyed from the air or from the ground is decided per project, according to what the site and the agreed scope require.

SEC applications

Aerial mapping

Carrying imaging payloads for photogrammetric mapping of open sites and corridors.

LiDAR missions

Carrying the LiDAR payload where surface geometry is needed rather than imagery alone.

Asset inspection

Visual inspection flights over structures and installations, where the agreed scope calls for them.

Workflow

  1. 01

    Flight planning

    The area, payload and ground control arrangement are planned against the deliverable the project needs.

  2. 02

    Acquisition

    The platform flies the planned mission while onboard positioning references the captured data.

  3. 03

    Processing

    Captured data is processed into the model the project asked for — surfaces, orthomosaics or point clouds.

  4. 04

    Deliverable

    Outputs are issued in the agreed formats, with the survey scope stated alongside them.

Typical outputs

  • Aerial imagery sets
  • Orthomosaics and terrain models
  • Point clouds, when a LiDAR payload is flown
