Precision, efficiency, and innovation in spatial measurement and visualization

Sky Pictures Bulgaria offers high-tech services in the field of mapping and geodesy using industrial-grade drones equipped with photogrammetric cameras, full-frame sensors, and intelligent spatial analysis software. Our services include orthophoto imaging, geodetic surveying, 3D modeling, and topographic mapping, applicable across a wide range of sectors — construction, agriculture, urban planning, ecology, security, and infrastructure.

What We Offer

Orthophoto Imaging with Drones – creation of high-precision orthophoto maps using geo-referenced aerial imagery;
Geodetic Surveying with Drones – accurate terrain measurements using GNSS RTK/PPK corrections and point cloud processing;
3D Modeling and Digital Terrain/Surface Models (DTM/DSM) – generation of photorealistic 3D reconstructions of landscapes, structures, and facilities;
Mapping and Planning – visualization, measurement, and analysis of terrain features and changes with high accuracy across various industries;
Surface and Volume Calculations – modern technology enables precise calculation of almost any area or volume – agricultural fields, water surfaces, rooftops, buildings, and more.

Applications and Target Sectors

Construction & Infrastructure – planning, progress tracking, quantity takeoffs, density and volume calculations, contour and profile extraction;
Agriculture & Forestry – precision mapping of crop fields, slope and soil analysis, drainage mapping, timber inventory;
Property Management & Cadastre – boundary delineation, surveying inaccessible terrain, creation of cadastral data layers;
Damage Assessment & Insurance – documentation of disaster aftermaths (floods, fires, landslides) with geo-tagged imagery;
Mining & Extraction Industries – excavation and stockpile volume calculations, open-pit monitoring, inventory tracking;
Urban Planning & Architecture – construction planning, zoning analysis, 3D presentations of projects;
Environment & Disaster Management – monitoring erosion, runoff, fire risks, environmental damage, and crisis prevention.

Technological Advantages

High-Precision Drone Systems

• Industrial-grade drone platforms with photogrammetric cameras;
• RTK/PPK positioning for centimeter-level accuracy (1–2 cm);
• Optional LiDAR integration for dense vegetation or complex terrains.

Data Processing and Analysis
