Bjurholm forest mapping

A production forest area of 5 square kilometres was mapped by the Swedish Forest Agency on behalf of the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences for a scientific research project. The area was flown in 11 sorties with a high degree of overlap between flight blocks (each flight mapped approx. on square km). Georeferenced photo mosaics [More>>]

Sladan environmental monitoring

The Department of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences used PAMS to study the succession of vegetation in a shallow lake in Northern Sweden as part of an environmental monitoring project. The study area was mapped in 5 overlapping flights, each one covering approximately 75 hectares. Preliminary photo mosaics were produced on-site [More>>]

Kiruna vegetation mapping

Luleå University of Technology used PAMS to map a test site for the EU-project Impactmin . The high resolution orthophoto mosaic was used for detailed mapping of water vegetation in the area. The application is very time sensitive and requires the mapping to take place at a certain stage of vegetation development. Another requirement was [More>>]

Norsjö open pit mine

An open pit mine was surveyed on behalf of one of the leading mining companies in northern Sweden. The assignment was to provide high accuracy surface models (DSMs) and orthophoto mosaics for two adjacent sites,  each one approximately one square kilometer in size. The total area was covered in 4 flights from 200 m altitude [More>>]

A hydropower dam was surveyed by the Swedish Forest Agency on behalf of the operator. In order to guarantee a high absolute precision a number of signalled ground control points were established and measured with a RTK GPS before flying the area. The site was mapped in two flights from 200 m alt. A high [More>>]

Roundwood stockpile measurement

The task was to provide volume measurements of roundwood stockpiles at biofuel industry in northern Sweden. After driving 250 km to the site the entire area was mapped in less than 45 minutes from arrival and preliminary photo mosaics were produced on-site to verify data quality. The dataset was subsequently processed at the PAMS web [More>>]

Finsrud volume measurement

SmartPlanes was contracted to survey some gravel piles using the PAMS system at a remote site surrounded by forest in Southeastern Norway. The background to this project was an old municipal rock quarry in a remote location was being divided among a number of stakeholders. The quarry had previously been in operation and there was [More>>]

 
Remningstorp- documentation of forest research experiment

The PAMS system is particularly useful for time-critical mapping of small areas, especially in remote locations. On this site there was a controlled experiment for testing an airborne radar sensor for mapping stormfelled trees. the researchers wanted to test the effect of different orientations of windfelled trees on the sensor response. By controlled experiment, I [More>>]

Historic bridge

A historic bridge in Germany, one of the largest brick structures in the world was surveyed on behalf of BLOM Germany GmbH. The site  was mapped in several flights generating both nadir and oblique photography. Preliminary maps were produced directly on-site to verify the data quality and the datasets were subsequently processed at the PAMS [More>>]
