Some of the latest projects we have worked on:
'​THREE' HQ BUILDING in READING
​
​Working in conjunction with Surrey Visuals, we set out to showcase this stunning new building that was built by Morgan Lovell. We did fly-throughs of each floor, not only to show off the marvellous design, but also to be used as separate internal orientation video so that new employees could get used to the building and the internal surroundings of meeting & focus rooms, silent pods and eating areas, giving them a virtual tour before even arriving on site.
'PULSANT' EDGE DATA CENTRE
​
​Our fly-through services, in conjunction with Surrey Visuals, allowed Pulsant's prospective clients to take a comprehensive virtual tour and get a firsthand look at the features and services they have to offer in their state-of-the-art facilities, showcasing their features such as redundant power supply and low power consumption generators which guarantee the reliability and performance of their cloud-based services, Pulsant's edge data centre's multiple server rooms, customer repair and setup areas, and relaxing lounges, providing their prospective clients with an immersive experience that allowed them to get familiar with the building and it's facilities.

Benefits of a Roof Inspection
Roof inspections are essential for new home owners
When considering the big decision of investing in a home the condition of the roof is often overlooked.
An aerial roof inspection can help identify any potential issues with the roof, such as loose shingles, missing pieces, leaks, or deterioration of materials. This can prevent costly repairs or replacements in the long run. Additionally, inspections can detect any water damage, which can lead to serious structural issues if left unchecked. Regular roof inspections can save home owners time, money, and peace of mind.

Ageing Roofs
We understand the importance of keeping your roof in top condition. With changing weather, high winds, ice, heavy rain, growing vegetation such as moss, and falling debris, your roof is heavily impacted and can be damaged over time. That's why we believe it's important to get a regular roof survey to identify any issues and make sure your roof stays in good condition. We will ensure that any problems are identified, so that you can get the best advice on how to fix them. With Open Sky Media, you can be sure that your roof is in safe hands.
Insurance Claims
Open Sky Media can help when you need a faster approach in the unlikely event of an insurance claim.
If there is a leaky section of your roof, some fallen debris has broken your chimney or cracked some tiles, or or even worse, our aerial images can help quickly pin point, and prove, the damage immediately streamlining the claims process so you can get the resolution you deserve.
SITE SURVEYS, AERIAL IMAGERY & PHOTOGRAMMETRY
When time is money, aerial capture is an invaluable tool for site surveys. It provides an aerial view of the site, which makes it easier to identify potential problems and design solutions. Aerial imagery, such as aerial photographs and satellite images, can be used to create detailed models of landforms and structures, as well as to monitor changes over time. Photogrammetry is used to create detailed 3D models of the site, which can be used to identify potential cut and fill areas. We also complete surveys over time which can be overlayed in order to see any differences in erosion or sediment creation, or how a construction site is progressing over time.
​
BENEFITS OF AERIAL SURVEYS
PHOTOGRAMMETRY
Photogrammetry is a process that incorporates multiple photos of an area from the sky and stitches them together to create a high-resolution image. With our technology, you can zoom in on any detail of the photo, inspect areas of the ground that would be impossible to see from a regular photograph, and get a birds-eye view of the entire site in one photo. Our services are perfect for surveying, mapping, and inspecting large areas.
ELEVATION MAPS
Aerial surveying is perfect for inspecting large areas creating accurate, detailed elevation maps that provide valuable insight into landforms. We also offer Cut and Fill calculations to help identify areas of potential erosion or sediment accumulation.
EXAMPLE OF A CUT CALCULATION
Our site surveys can provide data to help you quickly and effectively measure terrain, voids, volumes, and areas of your project site to make sure you have the right information to move forward with your project.
EXAMPLE OF A FILL CALCULATION
Our site surveys can provide data to quickly help you measure terrain, voids, volumes, and areas of your project site to help with waste and logistics management to make sure you have the right information to move forward with your project.
SITE SURVEYS OVER TIME
Open Sky Media offers aerial site surveys that are perfect for land surveys or mapping purposes. Our state-of-the-art equipment delivers digital aerial photography with precise overlay surveys and terrain maps so you can get an accurate, detailed image of the area over time for site inspections both for private and commercial clients. It is also perfect for monitoring flooding, soil erosion and sediment accumulation. (see interactive map below).

TESTIMONIALS
David Campion from Open Sky Media is always a pleasure to work with. He is extremely knowledgable and highly professional. I always turn to David when I need a talented pair of hands I can trust on complex shoots, especially when it comes to safe drone filming in complicated airspace.
Paul Dixon / Apache Studios
I was thoroughly impressed with the detailed approach to David's setting up and flying procedure, for my roof inspection, which could not be faulted. Very professional, everything explained and the step by step safety process followed in full. The outcome was of high quality and exceeded my expectations.
