Pinpoint targets with hight accuracy without entering the dangerous area
Locating underground infrastructure (metal pipes and cables) and any metallic waste
Survey vast distances and leave potential archaeology sites undisturbed
The system is capable to detect metallic (ferrous and non-ferrous) items at locations which can't be access by traditional surveying
Relatively limited response to magnetic soil and rock materials and reduced sensitivity to sources of cultural noise
The metal detector has a very good resolution of the data, allowing to discriminate separate targets
The system can detect smaller items
Get interpreted data quickly
The system consists of the Geonics EM61Lite time domain metal detector mounted on a drone. Survey missions are planned and flown in automatic mode with UgCS.
The adding of the onboard computer UgCS SkyHub enables the drone to fly in True Terrain Following (TTF) mode with the help of the radar altimeter and to log geotagged sensor data.
Optional component: RTK/PPK GNSS receiver on the drone to geotag the data with cm-level precision.
DJI M600Pro or similar
UAS Deployable Metal Detector
Goal: Testing the systems ability to detect diverse size and shape objects.
Technology: EM61Lite integrated with a drone equipped with a radar altimeter.
Flight Control: UgCS with True Terrain Following mode.
Result: All metallic targets were detected.
