2 AERIAL SURVEYING IMAGING TERRAIN ANALYSIS WHO WE ARE HSE & REGULATORY CLIENT INDUSTRIES RME Geomatics (formerly NGF Geomatics) was founded in 2015 as a division of Rocky Mountain Equipment Canada Ltd. (RME). Initially established to provide aerial data capture and mapping for the Survey, Engineering and Construction industries, today industry clients also include Agricuture, Energy, Forestry, Mining and Government agencies responsible for land management. RME Geomatics takes pride in providing superior terrain modeling and remote data capture services. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), manned helicopters, the most modern and powerful, Photogrammetric, Infrared and Multi- Spectral sensors, our goal is to deliver high quality, georeferenced mapping and data that s customized to meet your individual needs. You benefit from access to decades of experience working in industry, government, research and development. Our staff includes geomatic and mapping specialists, mechanical and electrical engineers, conventional and unmanned aircraft pilots, aircraft systems designers, safety consultants and technologists. We are proud of having the best professional team in the aerial mapping industry. A publicly traded company on the TSX, RME is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rocky Mountain Dealerships Inc. (RMDI). RMDI has been publicly-traded on the TSX since December, 2007, and is Canada s largest agriculture and industrial equipment dealership, with branches thorough Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. RME Geomatics is exceptionally aware of safety considerations in the UAV mapping industry. We have licensed commercial pilots as well as experienced consultants to the commercial aviation industry on staff. This inside understanding of air regulations and aviation safety procedures sets us apart from most UAV mapping companies. Other exceptional facts about RME Geomatics: We have flight authorization from Transport Canada for all regions in Canada, including controlled and restricted airspace up to 1000 feet above ground level. We are compliant with ISNetworld and Railsafe, as well as the Certificate of Recognition (COR) and OSSA (Oil Sands) We ve been part of leading edge, government firsts, including Health Canada approval for UAV, and a Transport Canada mobile ground station We are authorized as a Transport Canada Compliant Operator for unmanned aircraft We ve maintained the highest level of safety compliance possible with an implemented Safety Management System (SMS) a system modeled after those used in the commercial aviation industry Our engineers ensure documented maintenance of aircraft and continuous research and development of all safety systems. RME Geomatics can provide a speedy response to requests for an aerial survey without the delay of having to apply to Transport Canada for every project.

3 AERIAL SURVEYING IMAGING TERRAIN ANALYSIS OUR SERVICES Our principal services include a wide range of high resolution, direct geo-referenced imagery that can be coupled with our on-board (Light Detection and Ranging) system. This means we can collect uniquely detailed surface and feature data, by flying multiple cameras simultaneously with the, in a single pass. data is used to capture ground (bare earth) and above ground features (trees, buildings, hydro lines, etc.). This allows evaluation of slope through contour models and AutoCAD files, the analysis of volume, vegetation height and other terrain measurements and the creation of detailed 3D models. Data is provided as an LAS file, with each point classified as ground, vegetation, building, etc. RGB ORTHOPHOTO Since we have an unspecified location (blanket) SFOC (Special Flight Operations Certificate) issued by Transport Canada, as well as standing approval from Health Canada for airborne laser use, RME Geomatics is able to dispatch crews for data collection in a timely manner anywhere in Canada. Ultra high resolution imagery representing real-time conditions, captured simultaneously with. We can colour the points, allowing you to more easily assess and identify features in the data. A variety of resolutions options are available, down to 1.5cm, depending on what you want to see. PHOTOGRAMMETRY With RME Geomatics, there is no compromise on excellence: we use full-frame and medium format cameras with stable and calibrated lenses. This ensures only the highest quality and accuracy of the images captured. Cameras include: 36MP Nikon D810 DSLR NDVI Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is among a growing list of plant indices that can be used to assess vegetation properties and crop health. The ILS (Incident Light Sensor) calib rates each image based on light conditions, compensating for changes in atmospheric conditions. 6 band multispectral with incident light sensor Thermal FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) along with full video capture capabilities Medium-format PhaseOne cameras RTK camera position logging INFRARED Near Infrared spectrum imaging can provide environmental monitoring for vegetation health, damage, and rehabilitation. Because we can capture up to 6 different wavelengths of light at once, we are able to look at unique features within the infared light spectrum, including potential health problems or damage to existing vegetation.

4 AERIAL SURVEYING IMAGING TERRAIN ANALYSIS TECHNOLOGY The Renegade is our largest, remotely piloted aircraft. It is not only a time saver, but it also allows us to capture volumes of different views and information and in greater detail than photogrammetric mapping alone - all in a single pass. If your project location or scale requires larger, faster aircraft, our relationships with flight companies across Canada ensures that these more challenging projects are handled with the same efficiency as smaller or more accessible ones. is a highly accurate laser system, allowing us to get very detailed, multiple measurements from a single laser pulse. Used to build comprehensive surface models for mosaicing imagery, its data captured simultaneously with imagery. This not only saves processing time, but you get the best possible imagery product in the end. has: Custom designed hardware that was integrated with Riegl VUX-UAV and VUX-LR scanners The most capable system flown on a UAV (in terms of accuracy, range, and point density) Collection rates up to 820,000 Hz Capable of full feature point density over 200 points/m2 Able to collect ground data in dangerous or challenging areas for traditional ground survey methods data is used to capture ground (bare earth) and above ground features (trees, buildings, hydro lines, etc.). This allows evaluation of slope through contour models and AutoCAD files, the analysis of volume, vegetation height and other terrain measurements and the creation of detailed 3D models. Data is provided as an LAS file, with each point classified as ground, vegetation, building, etc. DTM A Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is a 3D model of the ground, with the vegetation removed. Useful for analyzing the ground through the tree canopy, for instance, DTM s capture far more detail than traditional land survey methods. Models can be created in multiple ways and imported into a variety of software packages, like AutoCAD. RGB ORTHOPHOTO Ultra high resolution imagery representing real-time conditions, captured simultaneously with. We can colour the points, allowing you to more easily assess and identify features in the data. A variety of resolutions options are available, down to 1.5cm, depending on what you want to see. CONTOURS Contours are generated from the point cloud data, offering more detail than was historically available because of the significantly higher point density in the measurements. Contours are the bare minimum to integrate with existing land survey data products.
