Using aerial drones gives a new perspective on scoping, inspecting and managing construction projects and large infrastructure, while removing the risks of working at height. Our commercial drones collect the following data:
Site plans
3D modelling with AutoCAD integration
Area, volume, length, set-backs, fence lines
Pitch, eaves, gables, valleys, ridge lines
Topography and contours
High resolution imagery with zoom capability to see fine detail
4K video footage
We use our aerial drone data to provide:
Site inspections, including measurements and take-offs
Infrastructure inspections
Roof inspections
Solar panel inspections
Project scoping
Rise PC holds a Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC) and a Defence RPAS (Darwin International Airport) which allows us to apply to CASA to fly within restricted air space. All our pilots are required to hold a Remote Pilot Licences (RePL).
Rise PC was engaged to undertake 319 drone inspections of the GEMCO accommodation village on Groote Eylandt. The surveys included roof images, external surface images and condition assessment ratings for all buildings. A key consideration of the project was the need for our drones to be constantly flying up to 10 hours a day, for up to 6 consecutive days in the tropical heat. This required extensive logistical and heat management planning which saw the project successfully delivered with no equipment (or pilot!) failure.

Room to Breathe
“Room to Breathe” is a Northern Territory Government (NTG) program to provide additional living space in remote community homes. Critical to the success of the program is accurate data about the current dwellings.
Rise PC was contracted by the Northern Territory Government (NTG) to capture drone video footage of the State Square carpark project in Darwin CBD. Darwin CBD is in restricted airspace which required Rise to gain an area approval from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) to be permitted to fly.
Rise PC was contracted to provide a solar panel and roof condition report. Using our commercial drones we were able to do an aerial inspection and provide a comprehensive roof report that included measurements and take-offs; condition report and high resolution imagery.
Rise PC was contracted to provide a roof condition report. Using our commercial drones we were able to do an aerial inspection of the stadium roof and flood lights and provide a comprehensive report that included measurements and take-offs; condition report and high resolution imagery.
Rise PC was contracted to undertake a full aerial inspection of the main buildings at Woodroffe Primary School. Using our commercial drones we collected measurement and take-off data and high resolution imagery for each building roof.
