Our specialist in-house Small Unmanned Aircraft (SUA) team surveyed a complex medieval site at Midland Road Raunds, using one of our three drones in advance of residential development. This enabled the rapid and efficient recording the remains of a series of masonry buildings.
The Clients (Kier Living) and their Consultants (CgMs Consulting Ltd) both adopted a positive and proactive approach to the works. MOLA were able to utilise Global Positioning System (GPS) alongside drone technology to rapidly record the remains using digital photogrammetry. This enabled the generation of detailed orthomosaic images and 3D models, saving considerable time and expense when compared to traditional hand drawn record. You can explore the 3D models below.
