The Survey3 is the newest in our line of simple to use survey cameras. Every Survey3 camera includes an external USB GPS receiver to automatically geo-tag each captured image. Its 12MP sensor and sharp non-fisheye lens allows you to easily capture high resolution non-distorted media. It can capture photos using an internal intervalometer timer or can be sent a PWM signal through the HDMI port (see below). If you supply power to the USB port it will power on the camera automatically. Sized similar to a GoPro® Hero these small survey cameras can easily be used in the field handheld, tripod mounted or attached to your aerial drone platform using our various mounts.

This model captures Near Infrared 850nm light. It is useful for capturing highly NIR reflective objects such as vegetation to compare with less reflective objects like bare soil. You can also use this camera with common security CCTV system infrared 850nm LED lights for night-time media capture.

The Survey3 cameras have a faster interval timer: 1.5 seconds for JPG mode and 2.75 seconds for RAW+JPG mode. (Capture speed depends on the speed of the microSD card used). You can also trigger the photo capture using a PWM signal through the HDMI port (see triggering information below). PWM can also be used to mount the camera's memory card to a computer connected via USB. An exposure strobe pulse is sent out of the camera with each capture allowing you to log them for PPK (post process kinematics).
