Aerial Mapping & Drone Surveys

Accurate. Efficient. Environmentally Focused.

Aerial Mapping & Corridor Route Surveys for Construction, Roads & Utilities
Precision drone data that keeps your project on-schedule and on-budget — from site topography to cable routes and road alignments.

At PB Aerial Imaging, we specialise in high‑resolution aerial mapping, drone surveys and topographic modelling—serving clients across the UK, particularly in Aerial Mapping & Corridor Route Surveys for Construction, Roads & Utilities, peatland restoration and construction site planning (pre‑ and post‑application). Harnessing cutting‑edge UAV platforms and sensors, we deliver detailed 2D and 3D maps with precision and speed.

Construction Site Mapping & Corridor Mapping (Roads, Cables, Utilities

From groundwork to greenery, our drone surveys support every stage of construction site mapping:

Reduce Ground Survey Costs: Faster than traditional boots-on-the-ground methods, with high-accuracy georeferenced data. AeroViews

Better Stakeholder Communication: Clear orthomosaics and 3D models that integrate directly with design and planning teams. Aerolytics

Progress Tracking & Reporting: Regular aerial captures help show milestones and detect deviations early. Sky Revolutions

Our surveys reduce costs, increase speed, and enhance accuracy across the construction lifecycle.

Drone Mapping for Peatland Restoration

Drone mapping isn’t just efficient—it’s essential. Our UAV mapping services support peatland restoration projects by providing ultra‑high‑resolution orthomosaic maps, digital surface models (DSM/DTM), and volumetric analysis. This enables:

  • Assessment of peatland condition, including drainage channels (grips and gullies), haggs and erosion features
  • Monitoring before and after restoration works—quantifying change, tracking rewetting and habitat recovery using LiDAR, RGB, multispectral, and thermal sensors NatureScot
  • Deliverables compatible with GIS platforms (ArcGIS/QGIS) for ecological consultants, land managers, and planners

Whether you’re working on upland reservoirs, bog rehabilitation or grant-supported carbon offset projects, our peatland mapping gives the data you need.

Our Mapping Services & Outputs

📌 We deploy RTK‑GPS drones with multispectral, thermal and RGB sensors to capture precise data. Your deliverables include:

  • GeoTIFF orthomosaics
  • Point clouds (LAS/LAZ)
  • Contour and cross-section data
  • DTMs/DSMs for linear routes
  • CAD ready DXF/DWG files
  • BIM/GIS compatible datasets

All aerial mapping projects align with industry standards for metadata and accuracy—ideal for planners, ecologists and reporting professionals.
