Why Alberta Projects Choose Convex Geomatics

From Calgary's growing urban areas to the rugged foothills, boreal forests, and energy corridors, Alberta demands surveying that handles tough terrain, harsh weather, and tight timelines. As a locally owned Calgary firm with over 45 years of combined experience, we deliver millimetre-accurate data with fast turnaround and practical solutions tailored to real Alberta projects.

Tackling Alberta's Real Challenges

  • Foothills & Dense Vegetation – Our UAV and manned LiDAR penetrates thick canopy to produce clean bare-earth models for pipeline corridors, infrastructure planning, and landslide risk assessment.
  • Winter & Short Seasons – We plan missions around weather windows and use high-density point clouds to maintain accuracy even with partial snow or fog.
  • Water & Bathymetric Work – Safe, accurate hydrographic mapping for rivers, reservoirs, and flood studies using unmanned surface vessels.
  • Regulatory & Project Speed – We deliver engineering-grade data that meets AEP, AER, and municipal requirements while keeping your project on schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything clients commonly ask before starting a project with Convex Geomatics

What types of engineering surveying services does Convex Geomatics offer?

We offer UAV and manned aircraft LiDAR surveys, LiDAR data processing, mobile mapping, bathymetric (underwater) surveys with USVs, road quality assurance, photomap and 3D model generation, topographic and as-built surveys, construction layout and monitoring, and volumetric / earthwork calculations — all delivered to engineering and CAD/GIS workflows.

What areas do you serve?

Convex Geomatics is based in Calgary and serves clients across Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan — from prairie reservoirs and foothills rivers to dense boreal forest and remote pipeline corridors throughout Western Canada.

How accurate are your survey deliverables?

Our LiDAR and survey deliverables are engineering-grade. Typical accuracies include ±2–5 cm horizontal via RTK GNSS, ±0.01 m depth accuracy on USV bathymetric surveys, and 1–3 cm per pixel of texture on photogrammetric 3D meshes. Every project ships with a QC report listing accuracy benchmarks against independent control points.

How quickly can you deliver results?

For most inland engineering projects, USV bathymetric surveys are delivered in 3–5 days, UAV LiDAR projects within 1–2 weeks of fieldwork, and most quote responses within one business day. Turnaround depends on project size, deliverable formats, and ground control requirements — we will give you a firm timeline with the quote.
