Need a survey of under water and surface combined?

PLA can acquire both bathymetric data, surface laser data, and photographic and combine them into a single seamless point cloud.

Benefits:

• All survey data in one place
• Easy to extract measurements

Deliverables:

• full xyz point cloud
• decimated xyz point cloud
• Fledermaus scene file

The PLA can acquire both bathymetric data of river and dock walls.

Benefits:

• Easy to take measurements from the data
• Can identify defects
• Historic record in case of any future damage
• Can reduce diver time and focus attention to defects

Deliverables:

• Full xyz point cloud
• Decimated xyz point cloud
• Fledermaus scene file
• Report

Need historic river records?

The PLA hold chart data (and other data sets) going back to early 1900s.

Benefits:

• Know the site history
• Know the changes occurring over time
• Reduce the risk of surprises during construction

Deliverables:

• PDF files
• Partially digitised-georeferenced
• Fully digitised with soundings extracted

Need a UXO survey prior to works?

The PLA can acquire a suite of surveys to provide a comprehensive UXO survey package, for example:

• Gradiometer survey
• Sidescan survey
• MBES survey
• GeoChirp 3D survey

Benefits

• Reduced risk of unexpected UXO
• Reduced risk of delays
• Valuable data set that can be leveraged for other uses

Deliverables

• Listing of Potential Contacts,  XYZ
• Target Characterisation Sheets
• Geotiff of GeoChirp 3D Coverage
• Survey report
