LEUVEN, Belgium, 10 July 2018 – The Virtual Surveyor drone surveying software now offers a faster, more efficient workflow and better overall user experience in a more stable platform. These new capabilities, along with an improved licensing system and an extended free application, are available now in Virtual Surveyor 6.
“Surveyors who have used the Virtual Surveyor package in the past will be amazed at how easily they can manipulate data and how quickly the software renders results of even the most complex topographies,” said Tom Op ‘t Eyndt, Managing Director of Virtual Surveyor nv in Belgium.
The software leverages the expertise and interpretation skill of a land surveyor and combines it with the computing power of the computer. Virtual Surveyor generates an interactive onscreen environment through orthophotos and digital surface models, generated from the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), where the surveyor selects survey points and breaklines to define the topography.

Virtual Surveyor is extremely popular among land surveyors because it enables them to complement traditional fieldwork with UAV imagery to generate highly accurate topographic products up to five times faster than otherwise possible. Virtual Surveyor bridges the gap between UAV photogrammetric processing software and popular engineering computer-aided design (CAD) packages.
“The focus of Version 6 development has been to streamline the workflow – from the importing of drone data to exporting topo information into CAD – to make the surveyor more productive,” said Op ‘t Eyndt.
Key enhancements in Virtual Surveyor 6 include the following:
“The enhanced user experience will continue to appeal to professional land surveyors, who are our core client base,” said Op ‘t Eyndt. “And the seamless integration with CAD and advanced drawing tools will make Virtual Surveyor more attractive to design engineers.”
