CHCNAV presents pioneering new cameras for enhanced aerial photogrammetry

CHC Navigation has introduced the C5 and C30 aerial survey cameras offering more precision and efficiency in aerial photogrammetry. These sophisticated cameras seamlessly integrate with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or ‘drones’) and deliver excellent image quality, enabling professionals to fully leverage the potential of aerial surveying. CHC Navigation (CHCNAV) is a leading provider of geospatial solutions.

Based on advanced imaging technology, the C5 and C30 aerial survey cameras ensure superior image quality, capturing highly detailed and accurate aerial images for a precise representation of the surveyed area in each pixel. This level of precision significantly enhances data accuracy and provides professionals with valuable insights.

Since the C5 and C30 cameras are designed for easy integration with UAVs, they empower professionals to optimize their workflows and achieve remarkable results using existing platforms. Thanks to the versatility of these new aerial survey cameras, they support a wide range of applications including infrastructure planning, environmental monitoring, topographic mapping and disaster management.

Photogrammetric and point cloud data applications

With the C5 and C30 cameras, CHCNAV provides advanced photogrammetry capabilities that streamline data collection and processing. Professionals can efficiently plan missions, capture georeferenced images and utilize user-friendly software solutions to convert raw data into actionable insights. Moreover, the C5 and C30 cameras offer tremendous flexibility for photogrammetric applications. They can be used independently on RTK-enabled drones to capture high-resolution imagery, or be directly installed on CHCNAV's Lidar series to colourize point cloud data. This feature allows for seamless integration of imagery and Lidar data, providing a comprehensive view of the surveyed area.
