Overview
Virtual Surveyor enables users to create lightweight CAD models from drone data with intelligent line drawing and point gridding functions. The software serves topographic surveying, stockpile inventory, mining & quarrying, construction earthworks, water management, and waste management with flexible subscription plans.

- Ontem, realizamos um interessante webinar sobre o fluxo de trabalho do Virtual Surveyor em português. Veja a gravação aqui 👉: https://zurl.co/X8rQ4 Acompanhamos o fluxo de trabalho desde as fotos brutas do drone RTK até um produto topográfico verificado e pronto para CAD: . Criar e aplicar um sistema de coordenadas local . Utilizar fotografias capturadas por drones com RTK . Adicionar pontos de controle em solo ao modelo . Verificar a precisão dos dados comparando os pontos de controle em solo com os pontos de
- Where does the real value begin in a drone survey? Virtual Surveyor is built around the workflow that turns terrain data into usable survey deliverables. The drone captures the site. Processing creates the terrain. But the professional value comes from what happens next: validating the data, interpreting the terrain, surveying and measuring what matters, and producing outputs that others can use. Points and breaklines. Surfaces and contours. Volumes, reports and CAD-ready deliverables. This is the workflow we are bringing to
- How do you bring photogrammetry data into a local coordinate system? In Virtual Surveyor it is treated as part of the workflow—not as a final shift applied after processing. A reliable workflow is to: • Define the transformation using matching known points • Apply the local coordinate system to the project • Review the residuals and RMSE • Continue only when the transformation meets the required accuracy This ensures that the virtual world, the survey work created from it, and the final deliverable all share the correct spatial
- Junte-se a nós na quarta-feira, dia 12, às 13h (horário de Brasília) / 17h (WEST/WAT), para um webinar ( https://zurl.co/Sudzy ) sobre o fluxo de trabalho da fotogrametria ao Virtual Surveyor A topografia com drones não se limita à fotogrametria. Na topografia com drones, a fotogrametria é apenas o primeiro passo: transformar fotografias individuais capturadas por drones em um ambiente virtual. É nesse ambiente virtual que começa o fluxo de trabalho do levantamento topográfico. Nele, os profissionais podem aplicar métodos de
- Collecting the data is only the beginning. Its value comes from being able to interpret the terrain and answer the questions behind the project. In this heavily vegetated neighborhood, 9 Line Aerial Media used Virtual Surveyor to examine the bare-earth terrain, visualize elevation changes and understand how water would continue moving across the site. A practical example of a clear workflow turning complex LiDAR data into information that can guide the work ahead—while reducing time and effort in the field. #DroneLiDAR
- Yesterday, many people joined us live for the first Virtual Surveyor Workflow webinar. (link below 👇) We followed the workflow from raw RTK drone photos to a verified, CAD-ready survey deliverable: • Create and apply the coordinate system • Import and assess the drone photos • Apply ground control • Verify accuracy using independent checkpoints • Create the survey in Virtual Surveyor • Export a lightweight CAD deliverable The central idea was simple: Accuracy does not come from one setting, one piece of equipment or one software
- With Virtual Surveyor accuracy is a workflow—not a setting. RTK or PPK is one part of that workflow. The more important question is: how are you validating the result? The workflow begins with accurately positioned drone photos. It continues through ground control and photogrammetric processing, then it can be verified against independent Check Points before any survey deliverable is created. RTK and PPK provide a strong starting point, but positioning technology alone cannot confirm that the resulting terrain model meets the
