High Eye Aerial Imaging Acquired by Alta Vista Ventures Enhances UAV Mapping Opportunities

April 17, 2017 - High Eye Aerial Imaging, based in Wasaga Beach, Ontario serves as the area’s source for unmanned aerial vehicle surveying, providing mapping of remote sites, aerial surveys, volumetric calculations, digital elevation modeling, and many other services has recently been acquired by Alta Vista Ventures Ltd., based in Vancouver, B.C.

Alta Vista recognized High Eye’s professionalism and high ethical standards  and for operating in the commercial UAV industry for over 5 years.  High Eye has successfully  logged over 200 hours’ of flight time and specializes in low altitude, high definition aerial surveying, photography, videography, utilizing both Multi Rotor and Fixed Wing UAV’s.  As one of the only surveying companies that uses both types of UAV’s, High Eye can adapt to the needs of any size project in a range of industries focusing on Aggregates, Mining, Construction, Engineering, Inspection and Agriculture.

The purchase of High Eye will not change any of High Eye’s standard practices and key personnel have agreed to remain on to ensure continued high standards of operations.  Alta Vista is now operating as a multi-faceted UAV conglomerate that delivers services through two wholly owned subsidiaries – High Eye and Pioneer Aerial Surveys. Each of these subsidiaries will be run by their current industry experts.  They have plans to further expand into the UAV market with the help of their diversified UAV teams.

High Eye has expanded the types of surveys that it can perform and can now provide LiDAR surveys to its clients.

Two important areas that High Eye services are the Surveying and Engineering Industries as well as inspections:

High Eye Surveying and Engineering

Combining High Eye technology with traditional land based survey methods increases the ability to utilize a crew’s productivity and obtains a more complete dataset. High Eye’s software provides a highly accurate 3D model that can be uploaded into any design software. High Eye can use pre-existing benchmarks and survey data, as well as independently capture additional ground control as needed. These 3D models are very useful for HD, interactive, record keeping of a project or job site at every stage of development. These records can be invaluable for protection against liability, insurance issues or on site discrepancies and disputes. Added advantages include:  survey crews are no longer placed in hazardous environments (slopes, break lines, etc.); no interference with on-site operations; survey is performed within a few hours; flexible schedule around specific design requirements; and the same survey or perspective can be replicated at each stage of a project.

For the Surveying and Engineering industries, High Eye Aerial Imaging provides:

High Eye Inspections:

High Eye’s aerial inspections provide valuable information and perspectives that may not be available through traditional methods. When High Eye performs an inspection, the images and footage collected from multiple vantage points provides an extremely close look at preferred points of interest. After the inspection, a HD record is provided, which then can be examined as many times as needed to assess any issues the inspection may reveal.   Repeat surveys then can provide an ongoing visual log for the status and condition of the structure in question.

Aerial inspection services are a much safer and cost-effective alternative to standardized methods providing the footage to quickly and safely analyze problems, without the need of sending professionals into potentially hazardous situations. They can minimize the time and frequency required by the inspection crew to be in a hazardous environment. UAV inspections also allow crews to focus their time on known issues found within video inspection.
