This week I completed the final processing for the last post-tension slab pour of a building for BD Aerial. Because of NDA’s in place I can’t reveal who we were working for or where the building is located. Each week I traveled out to the site and flew a deck before they poured the cement. […]
This week S&F Land Services had me fly 164th Street for the City of Vancouver. This was a roadway project requiring a high resolution ortho as well as a surface model. The roadway had a bunch of trees with canopies overhanging the road. This meant that I had to plan my acquisition very carefully to […]
I have recently entered into a partnership with PDS Drones of Minnesota to process the aerial imagery they capture into survey-grade 3D models and orthomosaics. This was the first job I completed for them and it was a proof of concept for their client so I did my best to “wow” them with quality deliverables […]
Mike Magyar of Magyar Land Surveying and I continue to inch along the waterfront in Astoria, mapping it with survey-grade accuracy. This project was another small job that Mike invited me to come along and map with him. I flew this one at 100ft to achieve a 0.35in pixel resolution and, like the Astoria Pilot […]
I was pleasantly surprised to get a phone call from Brent at IE Engineering down in Roseburg. I had worked with his boss Ron Quimby on the Stewart Parkway job I did for Century West Engineering earlier this year. Apparently Ron had been impressed by my work! Just another example of work I proudly find […]
This week I flew a natural gas relay station for S&F Land Services. To protect the interests of their client I can’t share where the facility is or any information that I captured of the facility. I do feel comfortable sharing a few screen shots with name and geospatial data stripped out that are about […]
Greg from Statewide Land Surveying of Gresham gave me a call to inquire if I could fly a difficult site for them in The Dalles. The site was surrounded by high power lines as it was next to a large Google Data Center along the Columbia River. There will be new development going on at […]
I’m labeling this project as such because it was the most difficult project site to capture thus far. My client, John from Riverland Homes of Lake Oswego asked me over the phone if I could fly a property for him that he was involved in designing a new property for. He sent along an exquisite 3D Model […]
This weekend I flew a large 50 acre project for S&F Land Services. It was a large Food Services warehouse in Woodbury, OR. To keep the number of frames reasonable I had to fly this at 200 feet vs the 80ft I flew 139th at and the 125 feet of Grade Street in Kelso. Once […]
My good friend and partner Chris Sherby of S&F Land Services asked a few weeks back if I could fly a 1.5 mile section of roadway in Kelso to create planimetrics from. Both S&F and TLT Photography had done a ton of R&D work on 139th Street last summer and fall perfecting both acquisition techniques as […]
