Aerial Survey, Photo, and Mapping Services

Cooper Aerial provides the most technologically advanced aerial survey photo, mapping and digital aerial imagery services. We create accurate land topographic maps that can be used for planning engineering purposes including city, construction companies and municipal planning, as well as assessing environmental conditions.

State-of-the-Art Equipment

Our American aerial survey flying division utilizes our turbocharged Cessna 206. This aircraft carries our Leica RC-30 first-order metric aerial camera system.

This system is equipped with both forward motion compensation (FMC) as well as a sophisticated gyro-stabilizing mount. This means we can compensate for any angular aircraft movement, which results in a superior image quality for our survey maps and photos. When calibrated, it has been noted by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) that this camera system has one of the highest-rated lenses available, which ensures you’re getting the clearest photo possible.

With every mapping site, a Digital Oblique Image (DOI) is taken of the project site using a high-resolution handheld digital camera. The DOI Images can be e-mailed on the same day of flight, ensuring you have immediate access to your photos. These images can be enlarged to 24" x 36" without losing visual clarity.

Our aerial survey flight services include:

• Emergency Observation Flight Operations:
  Observe disasters, such as fires, to get aerial view of damage.
• Geographic Information System / Facilities Management:
  Geographic Information System (GIS) is a collection of spatial and non-spatial data that is joined together while Facilities Management (FM) consists of building maintenance.

When selecting an aerial survey company, you want one that can do it all – fly, take photos, develop images, and email them – all under one roof. Our chief pilot and photographer each have over 20 years of experience. Together this means Cooper Aerial Surveys gives you the absolute best in aerial survey services.
