Plowman Craven 3D are proud to offer a completely professional service that covers the entire range of film based and digital photography. Our many clients require widely differing products but the photographers in our team fulfil all their image based data collection requirements.

We routinely undertake photogrammetric surveys to the most exacting specifications for many heritage and architectural clients. Within this discipline we are uniquely placed, as we are at the forefront of both photographic and survey control technologies and methodologies. We provide the full range of metric photographic products, from single and mosaicked rectified images, through to full stereophotographic restitution and the production of true-scale corrected orthophotographs. Furthermore, we are equally comfortable with the planning and implementation of both terrestrial and aerial photogrammetric surveys and have recently plotted the individual tiles on an Art Deco building in Nottingham and undertaken a major landscape modelling and characterisation project of a large area around Crawley in Sussex.

Our experts regularly undertake the complete photographic documentation of structures, sites, objects and works of art. We are vastly experienced in techniques that provide a complete digital photographic archive for scholarly research and conservation management.

Capitalising on our 40 plus years of experience in precise and accurate survey techniques, Plowman Craven 3D offer a complete Viewpoint Analysis photographic service to planners and architects. We provide the control data necessary to articulate the viewpoint images via our state-of-the-art survey grade GPS systems and high-powered reflectorless total stations. Uniquely in this sector, we also mark up the control reference images AND capture the high-resolution photography for the viewpoint modelling. This is both time and cost effective for our clients. We thoroughly understand all the processes involved and provide an integrated, holistic solution that avoids misunderstanding and the dangers of multiple data handling.

So, whether you require a digital terrain model from new flown aerial photography or a stone-by-stone restitution of a Grade I listed building, a rectified image of a church tower or a colour-corrected digital record of a priceless painting, then you should contact us. Plowman Craven 3D are your complete photographic professionals.
