Drone mapping

Rory Gillies and Shetland Flyer Aerial Media

Rory, an aerial mapping and GIS specialist from the UK, and his team shared their experience collecting ground control points (GCPs) in a hillside area. They set up a Reach RS2+ base connected to the internet via a SIM card and transmitted corrections to the Reach RX using the free Emlid NTRIP Caster. The precision of the corrections allowed him to conduct several stakeouts and verify the locations in QGIS with high accuracy.

Construction Design

Joe Lawson

Joe, who runs a surveying services company in the UK, utilized the Reach RX GNSS rover, a FARO scanner, and a total station to pinpoint the location of a wall in a river for the design of a new eel pass. He subsequently processed the survey data using 3D modeling software.

Construction Inspection

Brent Wiebe

Brent, a surveyor from Canada, specializes in topographic surveys and construction layouts. He used the Reach RX to verify the placement of screw piles for a concrete building's foundation and to mark out future roads and rights-of-way for the building and its utilities.

His setup included the Reach RX GPS receiver and Reach RS2, using the RS2 as a base to stream corrections via Emlid Caster, ensuring uninterrupted service with flawless results. The data collected at the job site was later processed using software programs like AutoCAD Civil 3D, QGIS, and Revit.

Underground utilities

SwiftNav, Deutsche Telekom, ITS Geo

Swift Navigation offers the Skylark™ Precise Positioning Service. The service uses the NTRIP protocol and satellite data to provide RTK corrections worldwide. It's fully compatible with Reach RX, enabling centimeter-level accuracy and fast fix times.

In a recent Deutsche Telekom fiber deployment project, the integrated solution was used to achieve precise positioning. Workers used Reach RX receivers and the Skylark service along with the GeoAce app to accurately map trench lines, allowing for safe digging without the need to involve licensed surveyors. This setup ensured high accuracy and efficiency, demonstrating the effectiveness of the combined technologies in a challenging environment.

Road Design

Michael Lambert

Michael, a virtual design and construction manager from Texas, needed to conduct a topographic and planimetric survey for a Williamson County road project to develop a 3.5-mile rehabilitation and extension design. He used the Reach RX to gather existing features like flowlines and surface utilities in the construction site and set ground control points for drone mapping. To create a planimetric map, Michael processed the collected data using Carlson and SimActive software.
