GIS & UAV
RECON uses the most up-to-date ArcGIS software to extend our spatial analysis capabilities, streamline data management, improve project efficiency, and to offer our clients digital data in industry-standard formats for Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
RECON provides Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV or drone) surveying and mapping services to assist clients ÑÇÐǹú¼Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ environmental compliance, ecological habitat restoration, and land planning needs. UAV technology provides a cost-effective alternative to conventional platforms for acquiring high-resolution data such as aerial photographs, topographic contours, video, digital terrain, and surface models. Habitat restoration applications of this technology include: remote mapping of vernal pool ponding extents, hydrological modeling of vernal pool watersheds, surface flow, inlets, outlets, and minimum/maximum pool depths. RECON operates under a Part 107 Airmen Certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration for commercial UAV operations and has experience ÑÇÐǹú¼Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ obtaining operational waivers by demonstrating our ability to fly safely using alternative methods.
