Surveying has come a long way from chains and compasses. At Centro Resources, we’ve embraced the power of drone and laser scanning technology—not just because it’s cutting-edge, but because it delivers greater precision, efficiency, and safety for the clients and communities we serve.
The Evolution of Surveying Tools
Traditional surveying methods still have their place, but technology now enables us to capture more detailed, accurate data in a fraction of the time. Drone-based photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning are two of the most valuable tools in our arsenal, especially on large, remote, or complex sites.
Why Drones Matter
Drones allow us to:
- Access hard-to-reach areas without putting surveyors at risk
- Capture high-resolution aerial imagery for topographic maps and construction planning
- Create digital surface models that help clients visualize terrain and elevation with precision
They’re especially effective in early-stage planning, construction progress monitoring, and large-scale land assessments.
The Power of Laser Scanning
Laser scanning adds another layer of accuracy. These systems capture millions of data points per second, generating 3D models (also known as point clouds) with sub-centimeter precision. This is invaluable for:
- Detailed site modeling
- Structural analysis
- Infrastructure mapping and as-builts
Applied Expertise, Not Just Equipment:
At Centro Resources, we don’t just use advanced tools—we know how to apply them effectively. Our team combines decades of field experience with the latest tech to deliver high-accuracy results that drive smarter decisions for landowners, developers, and energy operators.
As the demand for smarter land use and infrastructure development grows, so does the need for reliable, high-resolution data. Drone and laser scanning technologies help us deliver that, and more for our clients across the Tennessee Valley, West Texas, and beyond.
