About Us

Prospect provides precision aerial imaging services utilising the latest in UAV technology. Specialising in geospatial data, mapping and photogrammetry, we are also able to offer aerial photography and videography.

Based in the South East of England we provide safe, cost effective and reliable aerial solutions across a range of industries with the flexibility to adapt our methods to specific project needs.

All of our UAV operators are authorised by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to conduct aerial work and are fully insured.

The same image processed to an NDVI index. Here vegetative activity is shading from red to green for the most active areas. Much of the long grass in the nature reserve in the centre of the image is covered with the previous seasons dead overgrowth, and is hence showing low activity. Trees coming into leaf in the woodland area to the bottom right are made obvious in this analysis. Blossoming Hawthorne trees show up as black in the map - the flowers absorb rather than reflect in the NIR band.

NDVI

Using customised cameras we can collect near infrared spectral data suitable for plant health analysis using the Normalised Difference Vegetation Index and others.
