From its humble beginning in 2014, DMS Geomatics has since grown into thriving surveying company specializing in land, engineering, aerial, mining and agricultural surveying.
With 9 years of experience, cutting edge technology and a team of skilled professionals to provide a world-class surveying service to private, corporate and government clients across Africa.
We value the safety and well-being of all our staff and clients, as well as delivering results of the highest quality and accuracy. DMS Geomatics has comprehensive Occupational Health and Safety systems in place as well as an ISO 9001 Quality Management System.
We can assist in setting out your construction project, from house extensions to industrial and commercial properties and multi storey buildings. We can also assist you with your engineering projects such as pipelines, new roads, earthworks, landfills and quarries.
We help engineers, architects and building construction teams ensure that the projects progress according to their designs, structures are built within given tolerances and comply with the quality standards and building regulations

As well as using our own CAA certified pilots to carry out drone (UAV or RPAS) surveys we also process drone data collected by our clients. Some of our clients capture their own drone imagery but don’t have the time or in house expertise to undertake more than basic image processing and basic volume calculations.
To get UAV data into engineering, mining and quarry planning software further semi-automatic and manual processing is generally required. This further processing involves extracting 2D and 3D lines and strings from the Digital Terrain Model (DTM). The lines and strings model ground relief features such as tops and toes of batters, benches, tracks, roads, water bodies and surface drainage lines. Detail features such as fences and buildings are also extracted from the DTM.
Cloud based automatic volume determinations are good for approximate stockpile volumes but are generally inaccurate when stockpiles are complicated by for example sitting over benches, having uneven bases, having conveyors above or below the stockpile, where stockpiles above each other or where stockpile extents are difficult to define. Our clients can upload their drone data to our secure site where we can process to the required outputs.

At DMS Geomatics we offer advanced 3D laser scanning service, providing your designers and engineers with a fully workable 3D model of your entire site, in the most appropriate format (e.g.: 3D PDF, AutoCad, Revit, 12D). You can then view and measure every possible data point at your site, from every angle and reference point.
