ABOUT US
Company History and Evolution
Azimuth was founded in 1988 with the primary goal of supporting upstream and midstream oil and gas operations. In the 1990s, the company broadened its expertise of measured surveys in a variety of industries, including conducting aerial surveys for major highway projects. The early 2000s saw major international assignments and during the mid-2000s involvement in significant retail development projects. Subsequently, Azimuth has experienced notable growth in the renewable energy, healthcare and education sectors.
Technological Advancements
In the early 2010s, Azimuth introduced terrestrial laser scanning techniques to provide Building Information Modeling (BIM) services, further expanding its capabilities by adding Utilities Mapping soon after. By 2018, the company was offering small-area photogrammetric surveys using aerial drones. In 2025, Azimuth acquired a high-accuracy long-range aerial LiDAR system, enabling the production of exceptionally detailed and accurate data for large area projects. Most recently, the company has invested in a survey-grade terrestrial SLAM scanner, allowing for rapid data acquisition and the generation of colorized point clouds and 360° panoramas, particularly suited to busy urban environments.
Commitment to Excellence
Throughout the company’s progression, Azimuth has remained dedicated to investing in its workforce and resources. This ongoing commitment has enabled the successful completion of more than 5,500 projects.
