Digital elevation model

A three-dimensional image of the earth's surface created from terrain data

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are created by processing spatial data obtained using UAVs and allow for the identification of all possible terrain features.

Creating digital elevation models is necessary for analyzing land use structure and optimizing land use considering their landscape characteristics.

APPLICATION AREAS OF DIGITAL ELEVATION MODELS

[ 01 ]\
Cartography
[ 02 ]\
Urban and regional planning
[ 03 ]\
Building and object design
[ 04 ]\
Road layout and infrastructure construction
[ 05 ]\
Forecasting landscape processes and ecological modeling
[ 06 ]\
Creating electronic maps and navigators

THE TECHNOLOGY WE USE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS

For data collection, we use our own developed UAV called "Skif" - a fixed-wing type of drone. In one shift, a single aircraft can cover an area of up to 1,000 hectares, and with a modern navigation system and a 61 MP camera, we can obtain images with a resolution of up to 1 cm per pixel.

WORK PROCESS

  • [ 1 - 5 ]

    Receiving technical requirements from the client, collecting information about the land plot area and its location

  • [ 2 - 5 ]

    Preparing a flight mission for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), establishing control points, determining spatial coordinates and elevation marks

  • [ 3 - 5 ]

    Aerial photography of the area using UAVs and obtaining spatial data about the terrain

  • [ 4 - 5 ]

    Processing the collected data, organizing the images, "stitching" them into a digital model, establishing horizontals

  • [ 5 - 5 ]

    Developing a DEM based on the collected data using specialized software
