You will get UAV/drone photos &LiDar point clouds into topographical maps/DTM/DSM


Project details
You will get your drone photos stitched together or LiDar data processed to develop any one or all of the following outputs: an orthomosaic, surface contours, a Digitial Surface Model (after point classification of your point cloud, a Digitial Terrain Model, a Digital Elevation Model of your data, a Mesh and textured model, exported georeferenced image of your data viewable on Google Earth.
All of this is backed by over 4 years of experience processing drone photogrammetry using one or a combination of several software packages including; Agisoft Metashapes, Modri's 3D Survey, AutoDesk Recap, AutoDesk AutoCAD, and Global Mapper.

Job Success
Nanyuki, Kenya - 4:28 am local time
📋I am a Civil Engineer with over 10 years of professional experience spanning countries including; the United Kingdom (UK), United States (US), Australia, Germany, Latvia, Greece, Portugal, Somalia, Kenya, and Tanzania. This includes developing & analysing topography & earthworks from traditional and aerial survey data, as well as designing earth embankment dams in the construction, renewables, and horticulture sectors. My passion lies in solving issues regards Civil 3D surface terrain (contours) modelling & optimization using photogrammetry (aerial drone photos, point clouds, & LiDar) and traditional survey data.
Let me help you develop;
✅Material Volume Maps (Cut/Fill, Elevation Banding, Custom Quantities) using Laser Scan or Drone LiDar/point clouds RTK survey, or Total Station survey data
✅Topographical surface contours & map development and visualizing complex topographical information.
✅Road & Surface Profiles/Cross Sections using Civil 3D/C3D TIN surfaces (Alignment Creation + Multiple Profile Views + Plan View of Alignment)
✅Embankment Dams/Ponds/Pans/Lagoons using Civil3D/C3D (Design grading, reservoir storage estimates (stage storage), earthworks (TIN surface volume)
✅Digitizing & Georeferencing Maps (GeoTiff) including CAD drawings, Land Parcel/Title/Boundary Surveys, Paper copy, As-built, Cadastral, & Scanned Maps using Global Mapper & Civil 3D/C3D
✅Laser scan/LiDar Point Cloud (.RCP/.RCS/.Laz/.Las/.zLas/.cl3/.ply/.koo/.txt/.e57) to CAD (dwg/dxf)
✅LiDar/DTM to Civil 3D TIN surface conversion.
✅Photogrammetry including; Georeferenced Aerial Photo/Image Overlay, Point Cloud Segmentation, Orthomosaic/Orthophotos, and Digital Elevation (DEM)/Terrain(DTM)/Surface (DSM) Models
✅CAD maps (.dwg or .dxf) into Google Earth (.kml or .kmz), and
Key Software packages include:
🧰AutoDesk AutoCAD
🧰AutoDesk Civil 3D
🧰Golden Software Surfer (CAD software)
🧰Blue Marble Global Mapper Pro (GIS)
🧰AutoDesk (ReCap) Reality Capture Pro
🧰Modri Planet 3D Survey (Photogrammetry)
🧰Agisoft Metashapes/Photoscan (Photogrammetry)
🧰Google Earth Pro
Topographical skills include:
🛠3D surfaces
🛠Earthwork analysis (Cut/Fill maps & quantities/surface comparisons)
🛠Stage Storage (water storage estimation)
🛠Survey point; import/ point group optimization
🛠TIN Surface contour development (from survey points/ point clouds/ polylines)
🛠DTM's (Digital Terrain Models) and DSM (Digital Surface Model) production and editing
🛠TIN (Triangulated Irregular Network) surface creation and editing
🛠Civil 3D point group sorting
🛠Surface profiles (single and multiple profiles)
