Aerial drone survey over UK infrastructure

Our Work

Projects That Speak for Themselves

From large-scale infrastructure surveys to detailed thermal inspections, here's a selection of recent GeoFly projects across the UK.

HS2 Enabling Works — Topographic Survey
4.2kmSurvey corridor
Aerial SurveyingBirmingham, West Midlands

HS2 Enabling Works — Topographic Survey

Commissioned to deliver a full topographic survey of a 4.2km corridor ahead of enabling works for the HS2 rail project. RTK drone flights captured sub-5cm accuracy data across challenging mixed terrain, delivered as DEM, contour, and orthomosaic outputs within 72 hours of mobilisation.

  • 4.2km survey corridor completed in 2 flight days
  • Sub-5cm horizontal accuracy verified against GCPs
  • DEM, contour, and orthomosaic delivered in 72hrs
Grade II Listed Viaduct — Structural Inspection
11Arches modelled
3D ModellingShrewsbury, Shropshire

Grade II Listed Viaduct — Structural Inspection

Full photogrammetric 3D model of a 19th-century railway viaduct for a heritage conservation trust. The model captured millimetre-level surface detail across all 11 arches, enabling the structural engineer to identify and annotate areas of spalling, cracking, and vegetation ingress without scaffolding.

  • 11-arch viaduct modelled without scaffolding
  • Millimetre-level surface detail captured
  • Annotated defect report delivered with model
Solar Farm Efficiency Audit — 2,400 Panels
2,400Panels surveyed
Thermal ImagingStaffordshire

Solar Farm Efficiency Audit — 2,400 Panels

Radiometric thermal survey of a 2,400-panel solar farm for an energy management company. The survey identified 47 underperforming panels with confirmed cell degradation or bypass diode failure, enabling targeted maintenance that restored an estimated 3.2% generation efficiency.

  • 2,400 panels surveyed in a single day
  • 47 faulty panels identified and mapped
  • 3.2% generation efficiency restored post-repair
Residential Development — Progress Monitoring
340Unit development
Aerial SurveyingCoventry, West Midlands

Residential Development — Progress Monitoring

Monthly aerial survey programme for a 340-unit residential development, providing the project team with up-to-date orthomosaic maps and volumetric earthwork calculations at each stage of construction. Surveys were completed overnight and delivered before the morning site meeting.

  • Monthly surveys over 18-month programme
  • Volumetric earthwork calculations at each stage
  • Delivered overnight, ready for morning briefings
Commercial Roof Survey — Moisture Ingress Detection
£180kClient saving
Thermal ImagingLeicester

Commercial Roof Survey — Moisture Ingress Detection

Thermal survey of a 6,500m² flat roof on a logistics warehouse to identify areas of moisture ingress and insulation failure. The survey pinpointed 14 discrete wet areas invisible to the naked eye, allowing the facilities team to target repairs and avoid a full roof replacement.

  • 6,500m² roof surveyed in under 3 hours
  • 14 wet areas identified and mapped precisely
  • Full roof replacement avoided — saving £180k
Quarry Volumetric Survey — Stockpile Calculations
8Stockpile types
3D ModellingDerbyshire

Quarry Volumetric Survey — Stockpile Calculations

Quarterly volumetric survey of an active limestone quarry, calculating stockpile volumes across 8 material types for inventory reconciliation. The drone survey replaced a 3-day manual survey process, delivering results in under 24 hours with greater accuracy and no operational disruption.

  • 8 stockpile types calculated in a single flight
  • Replaced 3-day manual survey process
  • Results delivered in under 24 hours
