Another popular option for vineyards is to map each crop line. This provides you with an accurate estimate of the total length of the crop line. Don't forget we provide the digital data as well. Map soil types, salinity etc. The cost of data collection and processing is heavily dependent on the nature and number of features to be mapped and the nature of the terrain.
Pricing is therefore on a job-specific estimate basis.
Data collection is essentially charged on a time-out basis, ie the faster we can map, the cheaper it costs. For this reason, we often ask for vehicular access to land or the loan of four-wheeled motorbikes if available. Data manipulation and hardcopy production is undertaken on an hourly charge-out plus material basis. The price therefore varies depending on your choice of output. If the data is post-processed, the client is charged for the files at cost, as well as a small charge to cover download costs.
