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>>]

Norsholm watershed 3D survey

SmartPlanes was contracted to produce a detailed digital surface model of a drainage basin in a mixed agricultural landscape of close to 1000ha. The 3D model was needed for detailed modelling of phosphor leaching from agricultural fertilizers into small ditches and streams. For this purpose, the client needed an accurate 3D mapping of every agricultural [More>>]

Durham canyon riverbank erosion

The Department of Geography, Durham University performed a 3D survey of an active erosion area South of Durham on the first deployment with their new Personal Aerial Mapping System. Surface models and orthophoto mosaics were processed both by Germatics PAMS processing centre and with in-house software at the Department of Geography. See also story on [More>>]
