How Chinook Uses Drones

Tier 1: Photos & Videos
The most common and basic use of drones, aerial photos and videos give a new perspective of a project site.

Tier 2: 3D Data Collection
Using photogrammetry, LiDAR, or a combination of both, we can collect accurate site data, including topography.

Tier 3: Working with 3D Data
Requiring an understanding of drone technology, geomatics, and specific data workflows, only a small number of firms both collect and work with the 3D data.
Tier 1: Photos and Videos
Drone photos and videos give us a better overall perspective of project sites.
They are quick to collect and we can cover a lot of ground very quickly
Photos and videos are geotagged, providing location specific information in the field and at the office.


Markups over drone photos and videos provide information within the context of existing conditions
Marketing videos show off completed projects
