imaGEO Drone

We combine geological, geotechnical and geoenvironmental expertise with photogrammetry, liDAR, thermography and radar sensing services. 

Currently we provide specialist aerial ‘Drone’ and Ground Penetrating Radar ‘GPR’ services to the construction, building inspection, geotechnical & geoenvironmental sectors across the UK. 

A flying drone (aka ‘UAV’ Unmanned Aerial Vehicle or ‘UAS’ Unmanned Aircraft System) survey enables high resolution photographic, video and other sensing information to be rapidly obtained in difficult access or potentially less, safe locations eg roof tops, tall buildings, towers, construction sites, wind turbine masts, overhead transmission lines, pipelines, coastal paths, sea cliffs, quarries, slopes and rock faces etc.

Surveys are GPS located and real-time monitored by our highly skilled CAA qualified flight operators and recorded for later detailed analysis back in the office and copying for the client.

Our drone pilots are competently trained and are registered and approved by the CAA to carry out drone operations throughout the UK. Ahead of each survey we lodge a flight plan and risk assessment with the CAA. 

For additonal peace of mind and safety our surveys are carried out with both a pilot and support technician/spotter in site attendance. We are not a one-person drone show.
