Summary
In the summer of 2019, new EU regulations for using civil drones will be published. From the moment of publication, it will take one year before these new regulations come into effect.
The aerial survey
Terra Drone Europe (still called Skeye at the time) carried out a 3D aerial survey of the longest dam in the Netherlands by the name of Afsluitdijk using a combination of an RTK drone and a manned fixed wing aircraft.
First drone inspection under the name Terra Drone
Terra Drone Europe performed its first inspection under the new company name (formerly known as Skeye) for a large refinery in Rotterdam Port.
Terra Drone Europe carried out several tests with oil and gas company Shell PDO in Oman to evaluate the use of drones in the dropping of seismic sensors.
Comparing drone UAV LiDAR and Photogrammetry
In this article we will be comparing drone UAV LiDAR and Photogrammetry. Drones are emerging as a useful tool for survey applications.
In December 2018, Skeye executed a survey of a series of large breakwaters with a length of around 5 km on the pacific coast of Guatemala. The survey was done in collaboration with Deep from Amsterdam who performed the underwater survey using a multibeam sonar and CDR international.
Terra Drone acquires Skeye to accelerate global expansion.
Terra Drone Ltd, a global company with its headquarters in Japan, has acquired a majority stake in the leading European drone service provider Skeye.
Skeye was asked to generate a 3D mesh of the city centre of Basingstoke in the United Kingdom. Photogrammetry was selected as the methodology whereby the 3D geometry of objects can be derived from a series of overlapping aerial images.
Skeye conducted a large LiDAR survey using a drone on the Dutch Caribbean island of Saint Eustatius. The aim of the survey was to obtain accurate terrain levels as well as an accurate aerial photograph at high resolution of around half of the island.
Skeye recently completed the aerial inspection using drones of two very large FPSO’s (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) and 2 TLP’s (Tension Leg Platform) offshore Angola. The inspections were carried out for a major oil company in close cooperation with SGS Inspection.
Skeye were asked to undertake a series of aerial topographic surveys over a period of 6 months with a drone whilst development of a new car park area was created at the Peel Ports site in Sheerness.
In collaboration with SGS, one of world’s largest inspection companies, an inspection of an FPSO was carried out offshore Angola. A floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit is a floating vessel used by the offshore oil and gas industry for the production and processing of hydrocarbons, and for the storage of oil.
Skeye, CDR, van der Meer Consulting and Deep have jointly initiated the BREAKWATERHEALTHSCAN. This initiative was developed to offer a single source for determining the health status of breakwaters world-wide by combining above and below water survey techniques with detailed reporting and advice.
Skeye is a partner in the Interreg 2 Seas ICAReS project. ICARES will develop a cross border innovation cluster and create the necessary conditions for innovation in the field of remote sensing and advanced data communication &
Partnership to provide full service inspections offshore
Skeye has included manned aircraft survey capabilities in the United Kingdom, through an exclusive partnership with Geoxphere.
