Limitations of Conventional Surveying Methods

Traditional ground surveys can be time consuming, labor intensive and limited in coverage, particularly over large, linear or difficult to access sites. They can subject survey teams to traffic, rough terrain or active industrial environments, and still offer a limited data density.

Gulfnet’s drone-based surveying solutions address these challenges by providing a way to acquire complete datasets in a short amount of time, in a safe manner, and with a high level of accuracy.

Surveying, Mapping & Measurement Capabilities

Aerial Photogrammetry (High-Resolution Orthomosaic Mapping)

We generate accurate orthomosaic maps and georeferenced imagery for planning, measurement, and documentation.

  • High-resolution orthomosaics for large and complex sites
  • Accurate spatial reference for engineering and planning teams
  • Suitable for construction, infrastructure, and industrial facilities
  • Deliverables compatible with standard GIS and CAD platforms

LiDAR Mapping & Classification

Gulfnet provides LiDAR-based mapping for areas where dense vegetation, complex terrain, or vertical structures limit traditional surveying methods.

  • High-density point clouds for terrain and asset modelling
  • Accurate elevation data in challenging environments
  • Feature classification to support engineering workflows
  • Reliable data for infrastructure and corridor projects

Frequently Asked Questions

Drone-based surveys can deliver high levels of accuracy when properly planned and conducted. Accuracy depends on things such as ground control, sensor type, and processing methods. Gulfnet defines achievable accuracy during the planning of projects, and documents the accuracy in deliverables.

LiDAR is more suitable for areas with dense vegetation, complex terrain, or areas where there is limited visibility of the ground. Photogrammetry is suitable for open areas and surface mapping. The choice of which one to use depends on the site conditions and project requirements.

Yes. Drone survey outputs such as orthomosaics, point clouds, contours, and surface models are commonly used for planning, design, and quantity estimation, subject to defined accuracy requirements.

Data acquisition is normally accomplished in a matter of hours, depending on the size and complexity of sites. Processing and final deliverables are done as per agreed schedule based on project scope and data requirement.

Yes. Drone surveys are highly suitable for active sites in order to reduce exposure to personnel, as well as minimising disruption. Operations are coordinated with site management and safety personnel.

Deliverables can be provided in standard formats compatible with CAD, GIS, and engineering software, including orthomosaics, point clouds, digital terrain models, and volume reports.
