Drone Surveys for Rail & Infrastructure - Vogel Freedom
Railway and Infrastructure surveys can now be carried out more safely, quickly, and cost-effectively thanks to Vogel Freedom. Our new drone technology eliminates the need for track access and, with sub-5mm accuracy, it is perfect for rail surveys and other difficult to access areas.
Bespoke workflows and software algorithms are used to convert collected data into 3D - to an accuracy that is superior to any other method of data capture, including static laser scanning and train or trolley-based kinematic scanning methods.
Our Vogel drone surveys are up to 30% cheaper than traditional methods and can be completed up to 20% faster. You'll also enjoy greater accuracy and reliability thanks to our advanced technology and software and, because our drones can survey tracks without disrupting rail services, you'll avoid costly delays and minimise risks to workers.
