From Landmarks to Digital Relics: How Drones are Transforming Historical Preservation

Imagine exploring a grand historical mansion without leaving your home, or tracing the contours of an ancient battlefield from the sky. This is the future of historical preservation, and it’s happening right here in Ontario. Sky High Solutions is harnessing the power of drones to create stunning 3D maps and meshes of historical sites, ensuring their legacy for generations to come.

Preserving Ontario’s Heritage

Ontario boasts a rich history, reflected in its landmarks, monuments, and architectural gems. Yet, the forces of time, nature, and development pose a constant threat. Our mission at Sky High Solutions is to digitally preserve these treasures, using cutting-edge drone technology, before their stories fade from memory.

Lost History: A Lesson for the Present

History is littered with the remnants of what was once magnificent. Crumbling ruins and faded artifacts serve as stark reminders that nothing lasts forever. Our project fights against a similar fate for Ontario’s historical sites. 3D models provide a lasting digital replica that can be studied, explored, and appreciated even if the physical site changes over time. It’s a testament to the past and a commitment to ensuring that the history we create today endures for the future.

How Drone Mapping Works

Our drones aren’t just taking scenic photos. They capture hundreds of images from every conceivable angle. Specialized software then weaves these images into breathtaking 3D models and point maps, letting you virtually explore intricate details of these historical locations.

Project Highlights

We’ve started locally, capturing the poignant beauty of the Peace Memorial, the storied grounds of Battlefield Park, and the architectural grandeur of Auchmar Mansion. But this is just the beginning! Help us decide where to venture next in Ontario – cast your vote in the comments for the landmark you want us to preserve.

The Power of 3D Preservation

These 3D models offer incredible potential:

  • Immersive Education: Bring history to life for students and enthusiasts.
  • Accessibility: Enable virtual tours for those who can’t physically visit.
  • Restoration Aid Provide architects and historians with precise data.
