Mapping On Demand
Drone Photogrammetry and Orthomosaics
With the use of drones, Air Support Solutions is able to provide what Google Maps and other online sources cannot: Accurate and up-to-date mapping solutions for residential, commercial, construction, disaster and emergency needs.
Google Maps satellite imagery of Harp Park in Myersville, MD.
Google’s imagery of this area is circa 2015, nearly a decade old. This is unusable today in 2023. A decade’s worth of improvements, construction, and changes are missing.
Shown from 2015 is a vacant building pad, a dilapidated tennis court, and old baseball field.
Drone Photogrammetry of Harp Park and the Library in May 2023
In less than 30 minutes, Air Support Solutions flew a photogrammetry mission at 200ft above ground over Harp Park and the new library in Myersville, MD. The drone captured a grid of 190 georeferenced photos.
In approximately one hour, advanced photogrammetry software compiled the images into a complete precision orthomosaic map that can be overlaid onto the old Google Maps imagery. This immediately brought the map to life revealing the new baseball field, basketball court, tennis court, playground, pavilion, and library, and parking lots.

“Photogrammetry is the science of obtaining reliable measurements from photographs and digital imagery. The output of the photogrammetric process is often orthomosaic maps, symbolic maps, GIS layers, or three-dimensional (3D) models of real-world objects or scenes.”
