Cut & Fill Reports

Using traditional, ground-based methods, acquiring data for cut and fill quantities can be time-consuming and costly to your organization.

Complementary Survey Instruments

Drones have become much more capable of being used as complementary survey instruments. These platforms acquire digital aerial images which are processed into elevation and Orthographic mosaic coverage. With resolutions of as dense as 1cm, these data sets show amazing detail. This detail comes with massive amounts of pixels and point clouds. Volatus Aerospace has many software and processing solutions to handle large volumes of data that come with Drone Orthographic Mosaics and DEM (elevation models) by bringing them together in various virtual environments. This allows for:

Fast, to Scale Visualizations and Calculations
Drawing Break Lines and Reference Shots from the 3D Model
Volume and Cut and Fill Analysis
Generation of Elevation Contour Lines, Slope Angle and Direction
Direct export to CAD and GIS Software
