1. What is Digital Mapping?

 

It is the process of producing charts, maps, and plans (cartographic documents) at varying scales, based on topographic field data or compiled information.

 

2. How does a GNSS survey work and what is it used for?

 

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) include the Global Positioning System (GPS), the best known, the Russian GLONASS, the European Galileo, the Chinese BeiDou-3, the Indian NavIC, among others. Using signals from a constellation of orbiting satellites, it is possible to determine highly precise coordinates of points on the Earth's surface using field receivers.

 

3. How does a DRONE survey work and what is it used for?

 

Drones (or UAVs) are unmanned aerial vehicles that produce vertical or oblique aerial images to support the mapping of the Earth's surface at various scales, typically with applications in urban and/or rural cartographic updates.

 

4- What are images obtained by orbital sensor systems used for?

 

They serve to provide mappings of the Earth's surface at regional or local scales, where terrain features such as landforms and drainage patterns are extracted.

 

5- What technical projects depend on cartography and geodesy?

 

Projects related to the planning and execution of urban works, land regularization, support for technical engineering projects, projects for renewable energy installation systems (wind, solar, etc.), as well as environmental projects. The analysis of cartographic documents is part of the stages of these projects, including cost calculation.

 

6- What optimized results can be achieved with geotechnologies?

 

Geotechnologies, that is, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), GNSS, Remote Sensing, Drones, Total Stations, LIDAR systems (Light Detection and Ranging or Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging), etc., offer solutions with innovations in processes and in the use of generated products (cartographic documents).

 

7- What are the advantages of hiring our specialized services?

 

CartoGeo offers specialized services with a highly qualified team, both for field data acquisition and office staff who also work remotely.

 

8- When should you hire a Cartography and Geodetic consulting firm?

 

When there are demands for cartographic updating, production of image maps, thematic maps, GISWeb, Dashboards, systems for acquiring and processing geospatial data, using specialized tools consolidated in the market.
