Farm Mapping
Thinking about getting a map created for your farm?
Here is what you need to know:
VizLink create farm maps using the latest On-Site Aerial technology (either flown by Drone or Aeroplane) and LINZ aerial (orthorectified) imagery.
LINZ aerial (orthorectified aerial imagery) map
LINZ aerial imagery (Orthorectified imagery) produces low-resolution images of your farm from the LINZ Data Service which is an open-source authoritative national record of the country’s physical features. It is a cost-effective method, providing a low level of detail to produce a simple, quality farm map. Perfect to show the boundary and paddocks of your farm. Ideal if you are creating a farm map to support communication on your farm for a lower cost than using On-Site Aerial technology.
Please let us know if you have recently developed your farm and we will check how current these images are.
- You will get the paddock outlines.
- Sizes of the paddocks in hectares.
- Photo of the land is not included, but we can purchase a high-resolution image if wanted.
Mapping your farm using On-Site Aerial technology
When we create a map using On-site Aerial a consultant will visit your farm and capture high-resolution imagery using either a Drone or an Aeroplane.
These images are then downloaded, and to make them farm-friendly they are stitched together by third-party software to produce an orthorectified image. The result is an accurate, detailed graphic of your farm.
The data is accurate to within 0.5m and height data accurate to within 1m. Ideal if you need high accuracy for product placement of fertiliser, and for precise details of where troughs and fence lines are.
You will get:
- The paddock outlines
- Sizes of the paddocks in hectares.
- Accurate placement of water troughs, fence lines, and boundary lines.
- Accurate placement of waterways.
- A beautiful aerial ‘birds eye view’ image of your farm and a few landscape shots to have of your farm.
Know anyone else in your area who might want their farm On-Site Aerial mapped?
We can offer a discounted rate to your farm and any other farms that sign up to get their farms mapped at the same time.
