One of them is drones, which have become an indispensable tool in many industries, from photography and film to agriculture and industry.

These small and lightweight flying machines are capable of taking accurate measurements of large areas in a short period of time and without exposing workers to any risk. Using advanced technologies such as photogrammetry and LiDAR, drones can create precise 3D maps of an area and then use that data to precisely measure heaps.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:32;line-height:var(--awb-typography1-line-height);\">The advantage of technology<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><p>The advantage of drones over traditional heap measurement methods is evident on many levels. First of all, with drones we can estimate the volume of heaps with unprecedented precision. Drones are also extremely versatile &#8211; they can fly at different heights, around heaps, above them, and even inside them, allowing us to better understand heap structure and characteristics.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-4 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:32;line-height:var(--awb-typography1-line-height);\">How does it work?<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>The process of measuring heaps with drones is simple and efficient. A drone equipped with a suitable camera and 3D mapping software flies over the area, creating hundreds or even thousands of photos. These photos are then combined using special software, creating an accurate 3D map of the area. This map can then be used to make precise measurements of heap volumes.   <\/p>\n<p>Coming to the end of our topic about drones changing heap measurements, we want to emphasize that the advantage of technology in this area is undeniable. Thanks to drones, heap measurements are becoming faster, safer and more precise, which translates into savings in time and money, as well as greater safety for workers. An industry that decides to fully exploit the potential of this technology will certainly gain a huge advantage.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-builder-row-inner fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"--awb-flex-grow:0;--awb-flex-grow-medium:0;--awb-flex-grow-small:0;--awb-flex-shrink:0;--awb-flex-shrink-medium:0;--awb-flex-shrink-small:0;width:calc( 100% + 0px ) !important;max-width:calc( 100% + 0px ) !important;margin-left: calc(-0px \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-0px \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column_inner fusion-builder-nested-column-1 fusion_builder_column_inner_1_3 1_3 fusion-flex-column fusion-flex-align-self-center\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:33.333333333333%;--awb-margin-top-large:2rem;--awb-spacing-right-large:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-large:3rem;--awb-spacing-left-large:0px;--awb-width-medium:33.333333333333%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:0px;--awb-spacing-left-medium:0px;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:0px;--awb-spacing-left-small:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-aspect-ratio:1 \/ 1;--awb-margin-bottom-small:2rem;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-zoomin has-aspect-ratio\" style=\"border-radius:8px;\"><a class=\"fusion-no-lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/skysnap.com\/darmowy-e-book-jak-zaplanowac-misje-dronem-pod-fotogrametrie\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"How to plan drone missions &#8211;
