Hydrographic and Photogrammetry survey services-
professional, fast, affordable

Seafloor Mapping

From simple multibeam survey to complete backscatter analysis.

Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry post-processing. Ortho-photos, Digital Terrain Modelling, etc

ROV Services

Armor Hydro now also offers subsea visual inspection surveys with the new Blue ROV 2.

What We Do

Photogrammetry

This service is targeted to drone pilots who wish to extend their services and offer photogrammetry to their customers.

From drone captured photos, photogrammetry processing allows:

  • The creation of high quality ortho-photos
  • Extraction of a DTM (Digital Terrain Model)
  • 3D modelling of the surveyed fields, and surface areas/volumes measurements
  • Centrimetric geo-referencing for architects or land surveyors.
  • Data classification (Lidar-like) to reference roads, ground, buildings, high/low vegetation…

These measurements are aimed to local councils, topographic surveyors, environmental specialists, etc.

Possible exports from drone captured photos.
