Despite being well known for our work in the Drone Sector, many people are still unaware Drone Scotland also offer high quality time lapse camera solutions. Our time lapse cameras can be rented out to document construction progress, capture events and other commercial projects. Our rental period ranges from one day to several years and our offering includes 6K and 16 megapixel options as standard.
Time lapse camera projects
Our most recent time lapse camera project was to document construction progress at Buchanan Wharf, Glasgow. The 6K timelapse camera was stationed to capture progress of the tower (building 6) being erected over a duration of 4 months. We captured an image every 15 seconds. As well as the end result of a video of the build, it allowed the client real time data to see the site without actually having to travel there.
