Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Bohlke’s UAS division offers drone data collection for construction, infrastructure and public safety industries.

DRONE DATA COLLECTION

We use best-in-class software and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) to gather and process drone collected data into 2D; 3D; orthomosaic; heat; and elevation maps and models. As a leader in the aviation industry, we are determined to provide cutting-edge technologies that increase workflow efficiencies, mitigate risks, and drive ROI.

Our drone data collection is a three-part method:

COLLECT

We collect drone data by conducting a UAS flight mission that consists of:

  • Visiting the job site
  • Planning a map flight or progress report flight
  • Flying our Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS)
  • Capturing high-quality aerial images and data

PROCESS

We process the data we collect through our best-in-class software, which generates 2D; 3D; orthomosaic; heat; and elevation; maps and models:

  • Import drone data to our software
  • Process the drone data into usable maps and models
  • Determine which types of drone data are most useful to our
    client

DELIVER

We deliver this data to our client, via their industry standard:

  • Collaborate with clients on data type and formats that best
    serve their uses
  • Export and send via myriad of file formats
    (.obj .las .geotiff .xyz .dxf .shp)
  • CAD files, roofing reports, construction progress reports, etc. are examples of some of our export functionalities
