Underground landfill fires
Old 1950 Landfill Site Thermal Imaging Inspection

The build-up of gases such as methane in landfill sites is a common problem for councils & landowners, particularly if the land is identified for development.

Drilling boreholes to relieve the gas build-up, along with ‘flash burning’ the methane is a significant undertaking, so the identification of the heat spots and potential underground fires is critical.

The use of drones to complete the survey and land inspection using thermal imaging payloads is a new technological development and access to all through Drone Media Imaging. Using the latest in drone thermal imaging camera sensors such as the Zenmuse XTr radiometric, we are ready to deploy anywhere in the UK to carry out ground inspections, like the one recently completed at the Festival Gardens in Liverpool.

Below is some of the resulting imagery.

    House portraits make great gift ideas!

    It can be hard to think of the perfect gift for people sometimes, especially when you’re looking for something really special and unique to them. A house portrait can fit the bill exactly.

    These photos come from a client who wanted the perfect way to express her thanks to her parents for hosting her wedding at their property and I can’t think of a better way to put it than by commissioning such a special portrait of their home.

    Using a drone captures a property from a unique angle and is the perfect way to showcase all the beautiful home and garden features. In ‘olden days’ these portraits used to be captured via an aircraft flying at a much greater height and on a fixed flight path but a UAV or Drone can fly lower and capture much more detail as well as choose the perfect angle to show off the property at it’s very best. Not to mention that it can do all this at a fraction of the cost.

    Commissioning an aerial home portrait is simple to do – just get in touch with us to talk over your requirements, and provide us with the property details. We can then schedule a time to come and visit and capture your images – in this case, we did it when her parents were away so it could be a surprise.
