Aerial Photos

  • Your contact

Nowadays, photogrammetry or digital images taken from an aircraft are mainly used for prospection and documentation in various projects.

We take aerial photos and document research areas, monuments or excavation sites comprehensively and in high resolution with a single survey flight.

Photogrammetry Flights and Aerial Archaeology

Gathering Raw Data

  • aerial survey by helicopter, small or ultralight aircraft
  • aerial survey by drone (multirotor) with SLR-camera (only for small areas)
  • recording with high resolution digital images
  • most common image resolution: </= 10 cm/ground pixel

Processing Image Data

  • image optimization and adjustment (color, contrast, brightness)
  • Image rectification and optimization of georeferencing
  • computation of image mosaics

Data Delivery

  • orthophotos (RGB)
  • position and altitude accuracy in the cm range
  • in blocks of 0,5/1 km²
  • TIFF-format with TFW
  • aerial image mosaic
  • CAD-maps
  • GIS-software Global Mapper

As additional options, we can now also offer you other multisensor technologies depending on the project:

  • thermal camera (thermal images)
  • hyperspectral camera (chemical-physical properties)
