LIDAR Survey

LiDAR surveying has a broad variety of applications in which it can be used such as Cable Management, Waterworks, Landscaping, Archaeology, 3D modelling and many more.

The team of ADEDE consists of a set of certified drone pilots who're able to perform a series of flights, both within urban and rural sites. With an integrated team of geospatial experts, in-house project managers, and a vast network of professional pilots, we are ready to deploy when and where you'll need us.

Maritime archaeology

Most countries have legislation in place to protect underwater heritage against disruption by for instance dredging, construction and mooring of ships. We provide desk research and geophysics to search the sea bed for sites with archaeological value that under threat of disruption. This way we prevent late stage discovery of (potential) heritage sites and thus intervention with the inevitable delays as a result. If geophysics identify sites that may cause for rerouting the cable we can provide an archaeologist and ROV system to inspect the sites and make a firm assessment of the heritage status.

Battlefield archaeology

Battlefield archaeology is divided into two variations: archaeology of a battlefield with the battle itself as period of interest or archaeology in areas that saw battle of later date than the period of interest. For both cases we provide the combined skills of UXO expertise and archaeology.
