Morgan Structural and Bailys Regeneration (Glastonbury)
A complex and challenging historic redevelopment project in Glastonbury involving a large number of stakeholders.
The Environment Agency is a government body (part of DEFRA) that helps people and wildlife adapt to climate change and reduce its impacts, including flooding, drought, sea level rise and coastal erosion. The EA has around 10,600 employees and is based in Bristol, but organised on a regional basis.
Ground-based and lidar-flown GNSS GPS survey data has always been held up as the “gold standard” – yet it is costly and can quickly become out of date. Drone data, with its low-cost and quick turnaround times needed to show quality comparability when used in critical applications such as coastal flood-risk management. In this project, we needed to show sub 20mm accuracy in our level of output precision.
Versus the traditional ground/roof-based data capture time of weeks or even months for large assets, saving days/weeks
Versus ground or roof top inspections with ropes, scaffold and towers our aerial capture tools are “zero-touch”
Versus traditional manual inspection costs by removing the expense of prolonged capture time, travel time and repeated in-person site visits
Versus the traditional survey which does not “see” all of the asset from all aspects and elevations
Versus ground/roof-based surveys with limited access and finite resolution, allowing pinpoint accuracy across the whole digital twin
Versus the traditional 2D paper-based reports and images which have limited access, coverage and quality
