Aerial
Drone & LiDAR Aerial Surveys in Gauteng and the Western Cape
LandPlan leverages cutting-edge UAV (Drone) technology to capture high-resolution spatial data over vast or inaccessible terrains.
By combining Aerial LiDAR and High-Definition Photogrammetry, we provide a level of site detail that traditional ground surveys simply cannot match.
We operate with full legal compliance, holding a valid RPL (Remote Pilot License) to ensure all aerial data collection is conducted safely and professionally within South African aviation regulations.
High-Precision Aerial Outputs
Our workflow utilizes the latest processing software to transform raw aerial data into actionable, georeferenced intelligence. We deliver industry-standard formats compatible with all major BIM and CAD platforms:
Point Clouds: High-density LAS, E57, and RCS files for detailed 3D visualization.
Orthophotos: Crystal-clear, georeferenced TIFF and ECW imagery for up-to-date site overviews.
Digital Terrain Models (DTM): Accurate contour surfaces and 3D meshes for volume calculations and flood line analysis.
Practical Applications
Our aerial solutions are seamlessly integrated into our core surveying services:
Topographical Surveys: Rapid data collection for large-scale engineering and infrastructure projects.
Cadastral Boundary Reconstruction: Using high-res imagery and LiDAR to assist in identifying historical occupations and encroaching structures.
Site Monitoring: Frequent, repeatable flyovers to track construction progress and earthwork volumes.
Drone surveys across Gauteng and the Western Cape
LandPlan's drone teams work from Lynnwood Glen, Pretoria and Kleinmond in the Western Cape. We fly sites in Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand, Johannesburg and all of Gauteng, as well as the Overberg, Hermanus, Somerset West, Stellenbosch and Cape Town.
Frequently asked questions
Are your drone surveys legal?
Yes. Our remote pilots are licensed and all flights follow South African Civil Aviation regulations.
When is a drone survey better than a ground survey?
On large, open or hard-to-reach sites a drone captures far more detail in less time, which lowers the cost of big topographical surveys, stockpile audits and progress monitoring.
