PCI Surveys fixed-wing mapping drone staged for flight in BC

Equipment & Technology

Professional equipment. Practical deliverables.

Equipment matters because deliverables matter. PCI invests in Leica, DJI and Vivax-Metrotech systems so the data behind your project decisions holds up.

Survey Instruments

High-accuracy positioning for layout, control and as-builts — robotic instruments that keep one-person crews productive on fast-moving sites.

  • Leica robotic total stations
  • Leica MS60 MultiStation
  • Leica GNSS / RTK GPS receivers
  • Leica field controllers

Locating & Subsurface

Electromagnetic locating plus GPR plus camera tracing — layered methods that find conductive, non-conductive and unknown utilities.

  • Leica DSX ground-penetrating radar
  • Vivax-Metrotech vLoc3 utility locators
  • Sewer cameras and sondes
  • Signal transmitters and clamps

Drones & Sensors

Enterprise aircraft with LiDAR and photogrammetry payloads, flown with survey-grade positioning for mapping you can measure from.

  • DJI Matrice 350 / Matrice 400 aircraft
  • DJI L2 LiDAR payloads
  • High-resolution mapping cameras
  • RTK positioning and ground control workflows
Processed photogrammetry terrain model output

Processing & Software

Field data becomes deliverables here: surfaces, contours, classified point clouds, CAD plans and reports in the formats your team already uses.

  • Leica Infinity
  • Autodesk Civil 3D
  • Agisoft Metashape
  • Autodesk ReCap and CloudCompare
  • CAD, GIS and point-cloud workflows

Perspective

Tools serve results

Equipment lists don't finish projects — crews do. We choose and maintain this gear because it produces reliable data in real conditions: cold, dust, tree cover and tight schedules. The deliverable your engineer opens is what matters.
