Photorealistic Gaussian splat of a Swiss town from the air, created from a drone survey

Precise surveying.
Clear decisions.

High-resolution geodata. The right solution for every project.

Geotrend is our family business for aerial surveying. Whether drone, helicopter or aeroplane, we have the right aircraft for every task. A single flight delivers everything from one source. If a project calls for additional products or services, we can draw on a network of strong partners. You do not need to be a surveying expert. We speak your language and work out together with you which products truly benefit your project.

Photorealistic 3D scenes

Gaussian Splats

Explore your project as a walkable 3D scene. Photorealistic, from every angle. Ideal for presentations, documentation and decisions based on real-world impressions.

Millimetre-accurate models with texture

3D Models & Meshes

Millimetre-accurate 3D models with realistic texture. Ready to use in CAD, GIS and visualisation software. Ideal for digital twins, urban planning visualisation, volume calculations and structural analyses.

Textured 3D mesh of a Swiss city from the air, railway station, office buildings and streets with finely resolved mesh geometry
Aerial imagery without distortion

True and CIR Orthophotos

True-to-scale aerial images without perspective distortion. Every pixel precisely georeferenced. The foundation for planning, documentation and analysis.

Digital terrain and surface models

Elevation Models and Volume Calculations

Digital terrain and surface models for simulations, construction planning, volume calculations and environmental monitoring.

Millions of classified measurement points

Classified Point Clouds

Dense point clouds in which every point is assigned to a category. Ground, vegetation, buildings, bridges and more. The basis for engineering surveying, terrain and building models or detailed analyses.

Multispectral and NIR Imagery

Specialised sensors also capture light outside the visible spectrum. This makes it possible to reliably detect vegetation health, soil moisture, environmental changes or defects in solar installations.

Multispectral NDVI analysis from the air, vegetation vitality in false colours, crops, soil and woodland clearly distinguishable
Safe and efficient from the air

Inspections and Detail Imagery

Structures, infrastructure and hard-to-reach objects can be inspected safely from the air. High-resolution images and 3D models, entirely without scaffolding or rope access.
