Currently Fife Council’s harbour walls are inspected by a team of two from a hired boat. By using drone surveys, we can get a much closer look at the walls, and they would allow review of the inspection videos in-house for immediate assessment of suspect issues. Therefore, the Council is looking for a supplier(s) able to carry out photogrammetric and LiDar surveys of the Council’s harbour walls above and below the waterline and similar surveys of inaccessible coast lines above the highwater mark on an as-and-when basis. We require indicative costs for the following items.
-Mobilisation to site
-Delivery of a 4K Video file – Required.
-Delivery of a Photogrammetric model of each structure surveyed. Please detail accuracy of measurement possible. – Required.
