Elevation & 3D mapping

DSM and DTM contours, and 3D maps

DSM and DTM contour mapping, and 3D map generation. Contours and the 3D map sit with the orthophoto as the elevation record from the survey.

DSM and DTM contours are the elevation products used for terrain review and for volume work on a stockpile or a pit.

The outcome is the elevation record: DSM and DTM contours and a 3D map, with the report in cloud storage.

  1. Capture

    Ground and aerial surveying for this mapping uses DGPS surveys and drone-based aerial mapping. Drone capture is one survey method.

  2. Processing

    DSM and DTM contour mapping, and 3D map generation.

  3. QA

    Image quality verification during collection. The visualisation software includes data-validation workflows.

  4. Delivery

    DSM and DTM contours and 3D maps, with report generation and cloud storage.
