SETTING THE STANDARD IN THERMAL SURVEYS
WGS uses thermal surveys for fire mapping, vegetation health assessments and heat loss assessments. With an accuracy of less than a degree, even small changes can be detected.
For fire mapping, both above ground and subterranean fires can be monitored as well as the heat from stockpiles and mine dumps.
Thermal imaging is simply the process of converting infrared (IR) radiation (heat) into visible images that depict the spatial distribution of temperature differences in a scene viewed by a thermal camera.
- Professional-grade thermal imaging cameras for superior picture quality.
- Ideal for complex, large-scale projects requiring precise data.
- Efficient data capture across challenging terrains and expansive coverage areas.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Aerial thermal mapping uses drones or aircraft equipped with thermal cameras to capture infrared radiation. These cameras detect temperature variations on the surface and convert them into thermal images or maps.
Aerial thermal mapping is widely used in:
Agriculture (crop health monitoring)
Solar energy (panel inspections)
Utilities (powerline and substation monitoring)
Construction (roof and insulation inspections)
Environmental management (wildlife and habitat monitoring)
Applications include:
Identifying heat loss in buildings
Detecting hotspots in solar panels
Monitoring irrigation and soil moisture in agriculture
Assessing thermal activity in industrial facilities
Locating underground pipeline leaks
Accuracy depends on factors like camera resolution, environmental conditions, and altitude. High-quality thermal sensors can detect temperature differences as small as ±0.1°C, offering precise insights.
Yes, thermal mapping is highly effective at night because the absence of sunlight reduces interference from reflective surfaces, enhancing the clarity of temperature data.
