Drone Mission & Aerial Survey Plan
Aerial Videography · Mapping · Topographic Data · 3D Site Intelligence
This brief sets out the scope of your Gaspar Grande aerial assignment, how we will carry it out and exactly what you will receive. We will confirm final flight parameters, survey extents and regulatory approvals with you before mobilization.
We are BOWEN360 Solutions. We provide professional drone-based aerial surveying, inspection, mapping, site documentation and visual media. We combine experienced flight operations with modern aerial imaging and data processing to turn your site conditions into visual and spatial information you can use.
Structured aerial capture for mapping, elevation analysis, surface models and project planning.
Professional high-resolution footage for your stakeholder presentations, documentation and communications.
Digital site models that provide an intuitive understanding of terrain, structures and site relationships.
Repeatable visual records that support progress monitoring, reporting and future comparison.
Photogrammetric processing, mapping outputs and presentation-ready project datasets.
Site-specific operational planning focused on coverage, safety, efficiency and data quality.
Your mission combines professional aerial videography with systematic aerial mapping of your agreed project area, giving you both a compelling visual record and a structured spatial dataset — all captured in a single 6.5-hour mission.
The image you supplied establishes the working project context. We will confirm the final survey boundary, launch points and operational zones with you during mission planning.
The area you define for us to document and survey.
Systematic mapping passes designed around the confirmed boundary and terrain.
Key approaches, coastline, terrain and project context selected for visual storytelling.
Launch/recovery and pilot positions selected after site access and airspace review.
High-resolution footage showing the overall location, coastline, terrain, access and key project features for presentations and documentation.
High-resolution nadir and oblique imagery providing a permanent visual record of current site conditions.
A single high-resolution overhead map assembled from systematic aerial imagery for planning, review and measurement.
Elevation and visible-surface information supporting terrain review, slope analysis, planning and technical discussions.
A digital three-dimensional representation of visible terrain, buildings and site features for intuitive project visualization.
Contour information derived from validated elevation/surface data to communicate changes in elevation across the mission area.
We won’t overwhelm you with technical process. Here are the project assets we can produce for you from your mission dataset.
High-resolution, geometrically corrected overhead imagery suitable for visual review, reference, measurement and planning.
Three-dimensional visual model of the site for project review, presentations and spatial understanding.
Elevation model representing the visible surface, including ground, structures and vegetation captured by the survey.
Contour lines generated from validated elevation/surface data at an interval appropriate to the achieved dataset.
Dense 3D point dataset used as a foundation for measurements, modelling and technical workflows.
Professionally captured still photography and high-resolution video for documentation and stakeholder communication.
Coordinates mission sequence, checks, your priorities and go/no-go decisions.
Executes structured mapping flights, verifies coverage and confirms data completeness.
Records cinematic video, contextual stills and agreed project viewpoints.
Both pilots review imagery, storage, battery status, coverage and any required re-flight.
Controlled mapping passes with suitable image overlap for photogrammetric processing.
Flight height and capture strategy adjusted to terrain, obstacles and required ground detail.
Supplementary angled imagery where required to strengthen 3D reconstruction of structures and complex terrain.
Pre-planned cinematic routes covering coastline, approaches, key features and establishing views.
GNSS throughout; RTK and/or ground control incorporated where included in the final survey methodology.
We check coverage and image quality on site so any gaps are addressed before we leave.
Confirm aircraft/operator requirements and applicable commercial UAS approvals before operation.
Review current TTCAA no-fly-zone information, notices and temporary restrictions.
Establish safe launch/recovery areas and separation from uninvolved persons and property.
Maintain adequate situational awareness and operate within applicable limitations.
Use conservative wind, precipitation and visibility limits appropriate to aircraft and site.
Define lost-link, low-battery, forced-landing and emergency response procedures before flight.
Organize and back up field media.
Reconstruct site and mapping products.
Review alignment, surface and reconstruction quality.
Review RTK/GCP/check-point results where included.

Reference field review · PixproYou benefit from each aircraft being used for the task it does best, instead of forcing one platform to cover every requirement.
Selected for premium aerial videography, high-resolution stills, telephoto perspectives and strong low-light / dynamic-range performance.
Selected for systematic photogrammetry and mapping, with a mechanical shutter, enterprise mission workflow and optional RTK positioning.
Pixpro's field review highlights the Mavic 4 Pro's 4/3-inch main camera, 6K/60fps video capability, triple-camera flexibility and strong real-world imaging performance. The review also notes that published endurance is a best-case figure and field planning should account for real conditions and reserves.
DJI lists 100 MP maximum output and 6K/60fps HDR from the main Hasselblad camera. Pixpro notes the 100 MP mode uses a Quad Bayer arrangement and is best treated as a high-resolution option rather than the default for every task.
70 mm and 168 mm equivalent cameras allow tighter visual perspectives from safer stand-off positions and add visual variety to your footage.
10-bit H.265 capture and multiple focal lengths provide flexibility for grading, cinematic framing and delivery of polished media to you.

The Mavic 3 Enterprise is the survey-focused platform in your mission. DJI specifies a 20 MP 4/3 CMOS wide camera, mechanical shutter and RTK module support, which directly align with efficient photogrammetry workflows.
Aircraft, batteries, media, camera settings, positioning and mission parameters checked before launch.
Survey and video missions flown to defined coverage, overlap, altitude and framing targets.
Files, coverage, exposure, sharpness and mission completeness reviewed before leaving the site.
Processed maps, models, stills and video exports reviewed and organized before handover.
