NEXA / APPLICATIONS
Mapping & Surveying
Aerial platforms for rapid, high-resolution capture of terrain and sites, supporting mapping, planning, and survey workflows where ground-based measuring is slow or costly.
Broad area coverage
Cover large sites and corridors far faster than ground-based survey.
High-resolution capture
Dense imagery forms the basis of accurate mapping products.
Positioned for accuracy
GNSS and RTK support align captured data to survey coordinates.
Repeatable missions
Automated routes deliver consistent overlap and coverage between flights.
Application scenarios
Our platforms are configured around the payload, accuracy, range and data requirements of each survey task.
Topographic mapping
Terrain and ground features for topographic and base-map products.
Construction monitoring
Site progress and earthwork capture through the build cycle.
Stockpile & volume
Materials, fill and cut measurements to support site reporting.
Corridor mapping
Roads, rail, power and pipeline corridors over long distances.
Environmental survey
Land-use, vegetation and boundary assessment across open areas.
Accurate data, captured at scale
The right drone platform, payload and mission workflow combine into reliable survey data across different terrain and site conditions.
Automated flight
Pre-programmed routes yield consistent overlap and coverage for photogrammetry.
High-resolution imagery
Dense, detailed capture of terrain and sites for accurate mapping products.
Positioning accuracy
GNSS and RTK positioning aligns captured data to survey coordinate systems.
Rapid area coverage
Cover large sites and long corridors far faster than ground survey crews.
From mission planning to inspection data
A clear workflow turns a site into usable inspection records.
01
Plan mission
Define the flight area, altitude, overlap and target ground resolution.
02
Capture imagery
Collect RGB or multispectral images with automated waypoint flight.
03
Process data
Stitch imagery with photogrammetry software into usable products.
04
Generate products
Produce orthomosaics, digital terrain and surface models.
05
Deliver results
Export georeferenced data for mapping, planning and site systems.
Configure the platform around the mission
Each survey starts with the product you need to deliver. We match the platform to the area, the accuracy required and the data your workflow expects.
Payload
RGB or multispectral camera chosen around the mapping product you need.
Range & endurance
Matched to the site area and the number of passes a flight plan requires.
Control & data
GNSS / RTK positioning and mission planning configured to your survey workflow.
Environment
Terrain, altitude and site conditions inform the platform choice.
Flexible payload integration
NEXA platforms can carry the payloads a mission needs. Send us your requirements and we will evaluate the fit.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about choosing and configuring a mapping platform.
Can the drone carry our own camera or multispectral sensor?
Yes, depending on payload weight, mounting, power supply, data interface and aircraft configuration. Send us the payload specifications for evaluation.
Can accuracy be improved with RTK?
Positioning accuracy depends on platform capability, GNSS / RTK support, ground control and processing method. Tell us your target accuracy and we will advise.
What mapping products can be produced from the data?
Captured imagery can be processed into orthomosaics, digital terrain and surface models, and point clouds using photogrammetry software.
Do automated capture missions work over large sites?
Waypoint missions and planned routes support consistent, repeatable overlap across large areas, depending on the selected platform and conditions.
What information do you need to recommend a platform?
Target area, required ground resolution or accuracy, payload type, flight time and operating environment are the most useful starting points.
Can we add our real product specs to this page?
Verified product data is the preferred source of technical proof. We can keep the application explanation concise and let confirmed specs support the detail.
