With aircraft and sensors stationed on all five continents, Fugro provides airborne surveying and mapping capabilities anywhere in the world.
GeoSAR radar mapping
- Fugro owns and operates GeoSAR, a unique airborne radar mapping system that penetrates both clouds and foliage for production of highly detailed imagery and 3D elevation data. For more information visit
www.geosar.com.
-
Operating day or night and in almost any weather condition
-
Single-pass interferometric synthetic aperture radar technology (InSAR)
-
Maps areas previously considered inaccessible due to permanent cloud cover, dense vegetation, or rugged terrain.
-
Deliverables include: X-band and P-band orthorectified radar images and DEMs, derived products such as land cover, forest biomass, and 1:25000-scale topographic maps.
Digital Photogrammetry
- Fugro operates multiple large-format digital cameras and efficient processing methods to deliver accurate photogrammetric products, including:
-
Equipped with Leica ADS40/80, Zeiss DMS, Microsoft UlatraCam Xp, and PanoramiX A3 digital cameras
-
Meet internationally recognized accuracy standards at scales ranging from 1:500 to 1:24000
-
Deliverables: orthoimagery, oblique imagery, digital elevation models, contours, planimetric and topographic data, as well as land-use/land-cover and impervious surfaces data.
Lidar
- Fugro operates multiple airborne Lidar sensors to provide a full complement of solutions that meet customer needs for fast and accurate elevation data over large areas;
-
Applications include topographic mapping, floodplain mapping, forestry, infrastructure development, and 3D urban modelling.
-
Deliverables include: Lidar DEMs, both reflective-surface and bare-earth DEMs with a nominal post spacing of 1 m to 5 m, contours supplemented with breaklines, land-use/land-cover, and intensity imagery.
Corridor mapping
- Fugro’s FLI-MAP system provides project managers and engineers with a practical, safe, and fast solution for gathering survey data for any type of corridor.
-
Helicopter based corridor mapping for railways, highways, powerlines, and pipelines
-
FLI-MAP’s lidar and digital imaging capability delivers detailed information, without the need to deploy surveyors on the ground.
-
Deliverables include detailed topographic and planimetric data that can be easily imported into most GIS or engineering application software including PLS-CADD™, TLCADD™ or PoleCAD™.
