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

Common questions about our surveying and geomatics services in Alberta.

What surveying services does Convex Geomatics offer in Calgary and Alberta?

We provide UAV and manned aircraft LiDAR surveys, mobile LiDAR mapping, bathymetric surveys, photomapping & 3D modeling, topographic & as-built surveys, road quality assurance, construction layout, structural and deformation monitoring, and volumetric/earthwork calculations across Alberta and Western Canada.

How fast can you mobilize a survey crew in Alberta?

For most Alberta projects we can mobilize within 2–5 business days. Time-critical work — incident response, monitoring deployments, or as-built acceptance — can be on site in 24–72 hours depending on access and weather.

What accuracy can I expect from your deliverables?

Typical accuracies: UAV LiDAR ±3–5 cm, mobile LiDAR ±2–3 cm, robotic total station ±5–15 mm, monitored prism networks ±0.5–1.5 mm, and bathymetric surveys ±5–10 cm. Results depend on control quality, sensor configuration, and site conditions.

Do you provide CAD-ready and GIS-ready deliverables?

Yes — we deliver layered DWG/DXF, LandXML, TIN/DTM/DSM, classified LAS/LAZ point clouds, GeoTIFF, SHP/GDB, CSV, and PDF maps aligned to your standards. A README documents projection, datum, units, and file structure for easy onboarding.

Do you serve clients outside of Calgary?

Yes — we work across Alberta, BC, Saskatchewan and the rest of Western Canada, including Edmonton, Fort McMurray, Red Deer, Lethbridge, and the foothills/oilsands regions. Remote sites and corridor projects are part of our core work.
