3D Scanning The Mill at Ulverston

3D laser scanning The Mill at Ulverston to produce an accurate measured survey of an interesting building. The waterwheel certainly added to the complexity of an unusual measured building survey.
Setting Out – Warton

Setting out foundation centrelines ready for excavation on a new plot in Warton.

Technology has increased efficiency, but the principles of setting out remain the same: accuracy, neatness and effective communication.

Mapping farmland with substantially less legwork than other methods. A test flight near Poulton-le-Fylde, putting our latest drone survey equipment through its paces over a mixture of farmland, hedgerows and vegetation.
Land Survey – Dentdale

Land survey near Dent Railway Station, the highest main-line station in England, with a fantastic view down Dentdale. Not a bad place to spend a day surveying.

Land surveying the sports pitch at St Bees but taking a moment to admire the view from the clifftop.
Land & Measured Building Survey – Chapel-le-Dale

Land and measured building survey at Chapel-le-Dale, with Ingleborough looming in the background. Pity I won’t have time to walk up it today.
Measured Building Survey – Burton-in-Kendal

Measured building survey in Burton-in-Kendal, assisted — or possibly hindered — by Robbie, my son’s puppy, during a week of dog sitting.
3D Scanning Ryelands House – Lancaster

3D scanning the rooftops at Ryelands House in Lancaster. We have been here before to carry out a drone survey of this roof; this time we are measuring the whole building inside and out.
Land Survey in Threlkeld

I finished this survey in good time so summited Blencathra for the first time afterward.
Land Survey in Ambleside

Not a bad work environment for the day.
