Charlotte Helicopter Charters provides the tools needed to complete your land surveys, utilizing the right equipment to provide the aerial photos that are often needed.
Precision helicopter surveys streamline critical infrastructure management and commercial development projects throughout North Carolina. These operations offer superior capabilities for detailed right-of-way and site inspections, accurate topographical data acquisition, and high-definition visual documentation. This approach efficiently identifies potential issues in pipelines or transmission lines, safeguarding assets and accelerating project timelines. Charlotte Helicopter Charters crafts bespoke photographic and remote sensing operations, ensuring optimal technical precision and cost-effectiveness for unparalleled results that meet specific project demands.
The inherent operational advantages of helicopters make them indispensable for precision aerial surveying. Unlike fixed-wing aircraft, which are often restricted by FAA regulations to altitudes of 1,000 feet above obstacles, helicopters possess the unique ability to operate at significantly lower altitudes and slower airspeeds. This critical capability allows for meticulous examination of complex terrain and otherwise inaccessible or hazardous infrastructure within the Charlotte region and beyond, furnishing engineers and project managers with invaluable, unattainable perspectives essential for comprehensive analysis and informed decision-making.
There is no better way to conduct your visual survey, animal population counts, soil drainage analysis, ROW inspections, pipeline and transmission line inspections, and geographical surveys.

LiDAR Imaging
Light Detection and Ranging, or LiDAR, is a remote sensing method used to examine and measure North Carolina topography as well as objects, like vegetation, upon it.
Infrared Imaging
Thermographic IR cameras are used to detect radiation in the long-infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum and produce images of that radiation, called thermograms.
HD Video Gimbal Capture
Modern HD and 4K cameras can be mounted to helicopters, using the proper STCs, with a gimbal to stabilize photos & videos for detailed results.
