Hi Indian Drones I would like to ask you a few questions regarding your setup. do you have an email address or WhatsApp number that I can use to contact you. Or if its possible can you send me a email with your contact details. 92stoney@gmail.com kind regards Johan Steenkamp
This is exactly what I need for our 34 acres of West Virginia. I need to build logging roads to the very top of the mountain that are no more than 10% grade so they can later be safely used for side by sides/ATV use later (after logging) Our mountain is very steep but this would tell me where is best for logging roads. Awesome video.
That's awesome Tim! Let me know if I can help you out with LiDAR hardware or processing. You can write to my company at: hello@rockrobotic.com - we'll help you out.
@@timgiles9413 Well, I have some great news regarding that exact concern. I'll be announcing it this week on my channel. My company (ROCK Robotic) is focused on making LiDAR accessible as possible. Reach out and let us try to help!
remember that scene in Prometheus where the drones mapped out the tunnels and the crew were able to see it in real-time? Yeah I've been imagining how that's possible ever since taking a hike. Wonderful video!
Hey! Happy New Year! I'm a fresh Geodetic Engineering graduate in the Philippines and I was offered a job that deals with this kind of technology. And I honestly have no experience with it, I just read about it and seen the devices during seminars. But after watching this video, I feel confident about learning it with the company because they're also offering us a free training. I just wanna say kudos man for making it look so easy. 🎉 I'm definitely watching more. :-)
Stand in the middle of the forest during the middle of the day, look up at the sun. The sun's rays pass through all the openings to the ground, much like the LiDAR does.
Good afternoon, I would like to ask you a few questions about the construction surveying drone since it is a very good project for the area of construction surveying. 1. What is the maximum flight time of the drone? 2. How accurate are the measurements taken by the drone? 3. What is the maximum range or coverage area for a single flight? 4. Is the drone capable of transmitting and analyzing data in real time? 5. What types of sensors and cameras are equipped on the drone? 6. How easy is the drone to operate and maintain? 7. Are there any specific safety features or regulations that the drone meets? Kind regards.
maaan ! you help me a lot ! now I know when I will need Lidar or not ! I'm starting a drone mapping company like many of us and this help me to decide my drone ! kudos !
Right now, the R3 Pro V2 has some very competitive pricing options for the full package deal with unlimited use of all its features. Join us for a group session (no hassle) and we can tell you more about it... www.rockrobotic.com/talk-to-sales
did you process GNSS data? I understand the rover talks to the base station providing corrections for your collected GCP's.. im wondering if you process baselines with the gps data collected by the drone with the base? thanks!
Hey Jakov! Reach out to one of our ROCK LiDAR Experts to give to you a proper free demonstration. Please write to, sales@rockrobotic.com - so we can help you out.
Thank you for your efforts, really appreciate it! One topic I'd actually be quite interested in - though it may be too personal - is how you got into it all. What formal qualifications did you need? Did you start out with all that expensive equipment, including the LiDAR, or with a simpler drone and then gradually worked your way up as you started making money? Would be interesting to hear what you consider the "minimum starting position", both in terms of equipment and qualifications. Thanks!
Not too personal at all. I think that will go into the list of videos to make! One thing that I believe in whole heartedly, is persistence. Just stick with it and keep on moving forward day by day. Even on these videos, I am making mistakes and people will call me out. Its important to take everything in and improve. Fail Early, Fail Fast, Fail Often... And Learn faster than anyone else!
@@IndianaDrones any chance this video content might be available soon? Would love to hear about training/qualification requirements in this specific field. Thanks
I recently completed my project on spatial analysis using Drone technology. I was more into Lidar data processing so I had no idea about the pre flight processes. Thanks to you that I get to know the whole process in a super easy manner. Your video made me even more interested to grow in this field. I wish to learn all of it in a hope to establish my career. But considering the recent popularity of drone technology in Indian market , I have no clue where to start from. Looking for your advice...
nice video dude, lovin the progress. it looks like you went for the Emlids. Im building a lidar drone but man its expensive, you're the best around when it comes to these Geophysics videos.
Thanks a ton. I'm putting together an Emlid video right now! Feel free to reach out through the website and share your experience in purchasing a system! Love to hear about it! ---> www.theindianadrones.com/
Excellent video - you clearly area good land surveyor! lots of complicated issues reduced to a simple workflow. Great over view aerial shots and google comparison etc.
Exceptional video!!! I do a lot of photogrammetry and was curious about high quality lidar. The accuracy and tree penetration is amazing! Also, as a cinematographer I really appreciated the work you put into making this a high quality video and interesting to watch. Thanks!
On your software are you able to pick the values for the contours? We have a customer looking for 10' contours. Are you able to do that with the software or are you always using the same 1', 5', and 25' coutours?
I'm really enjoying the RS2 receivers, we have some CHC systems as well. But for the price and accuracy. These are pretty good. Just want Emlid to get on their game and get the antenna profile added to OPUS!
@@IndianaDrones Hi and thank you for choosing RS2 for the project! We'll have antenna profile added pretty soon. You can already use Reach with OPUS, we have a guide about how to prepare data: docs.emlid.com/reachrs2/common/tutorials/ppp-introduction/#noaas-opus-ppp-service
Many surveying jobs are processed in local/arbitrary coordinate systems. Can this system deliver point clouds in these custom reference systems and different scale factors?
Hey Drew! Yeah we do this by uploading a both the GCP in the site coordinate system and the corresponding point on the LiDAR dataset. We need at least 4 pts to compute the false northing/easting and scale factor. We also have a way to project into grid then manually enter in the false northing/easting and scale.
@@ia7277 Wow, responding to a year old comment by implying that they're mentally handicapped. You sound like a cool and smart person, and you're probably not at all insufferable to be around! That said, I agree with @Patryc. The name of the video is "What is LiDAR Drone Surveying", and the gentleman hosting the video says LiDAR about twenty times, but doesn't once define what LiDAR is (Light Detection And Ranging, or Laser Imaging Detection And Ranging if it is spelled LIDAR). The video alludes to the process, but it would have been cool to overview what it is and how it works instead of seeing slo-mo footage (which almost seemed disruptive by the end). Not a bad video, but it could have been better and much more informative.
Sorry bud but if you came to youtube to learn this then you aren't going to make it... it's going to take alot longer than watching a 10-20 min video to get into the industry.
Great video, very helpful. We are looking to clear land for a construction site so we are using a LIDAR drone scan to collect data for the area so that we can get a topographical map under the trees and vegetation. My question is, if we want to do cut and fill calculations on how much dirt will need to be moved to create a level area for a construction site, what software could we use to perform those calculations?
I'd like to ask something. Is the lidar sensor and the after product able to create such an as built drawings of the road ? I mean, when road engineers build a new road, then can we see the difference between the ground and the road ?
Nice work! I have question according to removal of unwanted features from the raw point cloud, is it automated solution that requires only executing command like" remove trees", "remove cars" etc. or is it done in some more manual manner?
Thank you! Our ROCK Community of partners and product experts is a great place to discuss these kinds of questions. Please visit: learn.rockrobotic.com
Indiana.. when all these covid situations passes.. you must fly to Colombia or Ecuador and do the lidar scanning on the mountains and jungle areas ... Its sounds crazy.. but Colombia may have lost cities.
Yes! Absolutely! I flew into Quito and traveled into the Amazonas last summer. 10 days of beautiful flying. Learned a lot about the ability of the LiDAR to penetrate the dense rainforest canopy. I'm planning to make a video discussing how the LiDAR can "see" through the forest canopy and see the ground! But, I'm looking forward to going back to Ecuador!
So if I have five different points of interest I want to survey with drone borne lidar, I need to tack each of those areas with a target reference? I am talking about a mile in between the furthest points...thanks in advance...hey I just thought about it...perhaps I can tack those reference points one day and come back another day to LIDAR it up...no time constraint just a proof of concept over a study area I collected volcanic rock samples.
Couple things, first and foremost I love the channel name. Being a huge Indiana Jones fan and a fellow sloot that rocks the Indy hat on the site while fantasizing I'm finding the lost arc everytime I set my rod up on a point the name hit a special spot in my heart. Second, were you using your cell phone as a data collector?
Great Video... you really break it down well... quick question... I'm in the final stages of my licensing, and would like to open my own business... how much did your total set up cost.... drone, rover, base...etc. I know it wasn't cheap...
I got a question for you I'm currently looking to changing my career path and beginning to look forward in drone pilot is it better to become certified or just pass your license test I'm new to the drone world and would appreciate Andy fees back thank have a good day
you're living my dream man!! I'm in talks with a land survey team to join them as a basic crew member, hopefully that will give me the experience along with my part 107 to get me closer to realization. Do you have any other pointers for someone starting out in the industry? Chris
Vey well explained video. We work on Government projects in India related to urban planning and topographical survey is usually a start point at it. I was always skeptical about drone survey as they may not be cover the physical attributes like ravines, temples, temporary shed, etc below the tree canopies. Hence we are used to combining the Drone survey with Total station survey. But as you said LIDAR is able to offset the problem of tree canopy by mapping the physical attributes below it, makes it really interesting. Can you mention what would be the comparative cost of performing a Total Station vs. LIDAR vs. Aerial +Total station, some hint like is it three time or fours times of Total station ?
Hi, I have a lidar survey done in ITM(Irish transverse mercator) coordinates in AutoCAD dwg format and I want to convert that into TM 65 irish grid. Can I do the transformation of co ordinates in Lidar software after the survey is done in ITM?please let me know.
As others have mentioned in your videos, this is really really great information that I can't find anywhere else. Keep it up! One question/request I would have is to know your drone fleet and software setup. For example I am very curious about the laptop you use, is it a System 70 type machine? Either way, I'm looking forward to the content you continue to create!
Hey Mo! It is a system 76! But it is a bit overkill. We needed this laptop for a deep learning A.I. project I was leading. One of the teammates really wanted to deploy all the models in real time. But now we figured out how to do this using a little computer the size of a credit card
I’ve been trying to find something on connecting to CORS network here in CO and can’t seem to find anything! Do you have any information on how I might go about doing this?
@@IndianaDrones if there's any chance you could show more about LIDAR point cloud processing after you collected it? or different examples of the use of LIDAR
Thanks for the great informational video. This is a great first video for creating interest in the field of Surveying. The tech available these days is amazing compared to when I graduated with my degree in 1983 from PSU. I'm going to use this with generating interest in the field of surveying among high school kids. We are a dying profession-the average age of the professional surveyor in US is somewhere in the upper 50's which says we are aging out.
Really interesting and knowledgeable videos !! i have been following all your videos ! hope to be working like you soon ! thanks for sharing your knowledge !
Hello, what software are you using to work on your lidar point cloud ?! Great videos by the way ! And do you think the livox from DJI would be usefull for archaeological survey ?
Great video.. I have been dabbling with drones and the related technology for LIDAR, SONAR, autonomous flight etc for fixed wing and hex/quad copters for a while now simply because I find the technology fascinating BUT that has led me to realize there is so much potential in this space and that will only continue to grow as time goes on. In your case or experience what formal certifications, degrees etc are required and/or common as a pre-requisite to performing this kind of paid work?

One question/request I would have is to know your drone fleet and software setup. For example I am very curious about the laptop you use, is it a System 70 type machine? Either way, I'm looking forward to the content you continue to create!
Hey Mo! It is a system 76! But it is a bit overkill. We needed this laptop for a deep learning A.I. project I was leading. One of the teammates really wanted to deploy all the models in real time. But now we figured out how to do this using a little computer the size of a credit card
I’ve been trying to find something on connecting to CORS network here in CO and can’t seem to find anything! Do you have any information on how I might go about doing this?
Reach out to support@rockrobotic.com and we will get you some answers.
Really really informative.. thank you for sharing ❤
I'd love more LIDAR videos.
I'm on it! More coming soon! Any topics you want to see?
@@IndianaDrones if there's any chance you could show more about LIDAR point cloud processing after you collected it? or different examples of the use of LIDAR
Thanks for the great informational video. This is a great first video for creating interest in the field of Surveying. The tech available these days is amazing compared to when I graduated with my degree in 1983 from PSU. I'm going to use this with generating interest in the field of surveying among high school kids. We are a dying profession-the average age of the professional surveyor in US is somewhere in the upper 50's which says we are aging out.
I wish you turned up in my school 10 years ago ! Would love to study something like this
This is so cool to watch - thanks Indiana.
Excelente...Gracias...
How do you isolate differentiate the ground points?
Really interesting and knowledgeable videos !!
i have been following all your videos !
hope to be working like you soon !
thanks for sharing your knowledge !
I hope so too! More videos to come soon!
What app are you using on your phone to collect data on the aerial targets?
This is a nice one
Hello, what software are you using to work on your lidar point cloud ?! Great videos by the way ! And do you think the livox from DJI would be usefull for archaeological survey ?

Fun to watch. Thanks for keeping it simple.
You bet!
Great video.. I have been dabbling with drones and the related technology for LIDAR, SONAR, autonomous flight etc for fixed wing and hex/quad copters for a while now simply because I find the technology fascinating BUT that has led me to realize there is so much potential in this space and that will only continue to grow as time goes on. In your case or experience what formal certifications, degrees etc are required and/or common as a pre-requisite to performing this kind of paid work?
None, everyone is self taught
Can this sensor determine the locations of underground rooms and caves?
Looks great! Did you use it for archeology survey?
