Drone Mapping

Drones are the perfect solution for aerial mapping. Drones with high resolution cameras help in topographic surveys with highly accurate measurements, faster land surveying methods in difficult to access environments where human movement is a great challenge.

Drone Mapping in Land Surveying
Drone mapping is a modern surveying technique that uses UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) to capture aerial data of land surfaces. At RVS Land Surveyors, we use high-resolution drones to produce orthomosaic images, elevation models, and 3D maps for faster and more accurate decision-making in projects across India.
Types of Drone Mapping Outputs We Provide
We offer multiple drone mapping deliverables, including:
- Orthomosaic images
- Digital Elevation Models (DEM)
- Digital Terrain Models (DTM)
- Contour maps
- 3D Point Clouds
These outputs help in site planning, volume calculation, and layout design.


Topographic Survey with Drone Technology
Drones allow us to conduct topographic surveys with high precision, even in difficult terrains. Using RTK-enabled drones, we generate accurate elevation data and contour lines faster than traditional tools. This is ideal for large land parcels, highway projects, and plotting layouts.
Legal Compliance for Drone Mapping in India
Drone surveys in India must follow DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) regulations. RVS Land Surveyors uses drones that are registered and operated by certified pilots. We ensure all safety norms, permissions, and flying zone guidelines are followed strictly during every drone mission.
