Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Services

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a geospatial representation of a project site and its environmental data is worth millions. Digital cartography is critical for presenting environmental data to agencies and stakeholders. ECORP’s Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Services simplify site data acquisition for remote or fragile areas, and can be provided on-demand following human or natural events.

When to Use Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Services?

UAS services are invaluable in any situation where collecting recent, relevant, and highly detailed site data and video supports assessing and cataloging site conditions. UAS services allow ECORP to collect site data in a degree of detail previously impossible. The volume and accuracy of your site’s data are critical when compiling, analyzing, and presenting environmental data, and explains why UAS services are becoming a must-have component for all our services.
