Aerial Intelligence
From sharp aerial maps to smart, automated land analysis — and soon, a drone that lives on your property. Every project comes with interactive viewers you open in any browser, the full set of maps and models, and accuracy down to about an inch.
One flight. A full intelligence package.
Five capabilities, one flight — camera mapping and laser scanning flying today, with heat-mapping, smart analysis, and always-on monitoring on the way.
Aerial Mapping
Crisp aerial maps, accurate to about an inch
We fly your property and stitch the photos into crisp aerial maps and 3D models you can measure. Every spot lands within about an inch — roughly 10 to 20 times tighter than everyday GPS.
Deliverables
- Sharp aerial map of your site, fine enough to read the details
- 3D model — drops straight into your design software
- A 3D scan you can spin around for measurements, profiles, and volumes
- Elevation map accurate to within a few centimeters up and down
- Interactive viewer in any browser — private link, no downloads
- Optional 3D-printed relief of your property, sized to spec
- Project report with the flight details and accuracy data
Use Cases
- •Construction progress documentation
- •Land and property mapping
- •Real estate marketing & listings
- •Earthwork verification and cut/fill
Laser Scanning
See through tree cover to the ground underneath
LiDAR (laser scanning that sees through tree cover) fires thousands of laser pulses a second to find the real ground hiding under brush and canopy. It's the answer for wooded land, flood-prone sites, and accurate terrain where photos alone can't reach.
Deliverables
- A 3D scan with ground, plants, and buildings sorted into separate layers
- Bare-ground terrain map with the tree cover stripped away
- Contour lines at 1–2 ft steps (opens in Google Earth)
- Tree-height analysis for forestry and land planning
Use Cases
- •Topographic mapping under tree cover
- •Floodplain and drainage modeling
- •Forest inventory and management
- •Civil engineering site analysis
Thermal Imaging
Coming SoonSee What the Human Eye Can't
Our thermal sensor detects temperature variations invisible to the naked eye. Identify heat loss in roofs, moisture intrusion, failing insulation, hot spots on solar panels, and HVAC inefficiencies — all from the air, non-invasively.
Deliverables
- Temperature-mapped overlay of your property
- Side-by-side visual + thermal comparison
- Annotated PDF flagging the anomalies we found
- Action items for what to look at first
Use Cases
- •Roof inspections — heat loss and moisture detection
- •Solar panel diagnostics — underperforming cells and hot spots
- •Building envelope and HVAC assessment
- •Electrical fault detection
Smart Land Analysis
Coming SoonAnswers and forecasts no other drone operator offers
This is what sets us apart. Our CTO builds custom AI that turns your drone data into real answers — not just maps, but forecasts, automatic sorting, and tools that help you make the call.
Deliverables
- Change detection — see exactly what's different between two flights
- Drainage, erosion, and soil-movement forecasts
- Plant-health and land-cover reads (crops, cedar, plant stress)
- Stockpile and dirt-moving tracking with cut/fill numbers
- Custom reports — slope, sightlines, flood zone, and setback overlays
Use Cases
- •Developer due diligence and risk assessment
- •Agricultural yield prediction and monitoring
- •Environmental compliance documentation
- •Custom analytics dashboards for recurring clients
Drone in a Box
Coming SoonAn always-on drone that watches your site
A drone lives on your property. It takes off on a schedule or when something triggers it, flies a set route, takes its photos, and lands itself — no pilot on site. Perfect for ranches, infrastructure, and job sites where ongoing eyes in the sky beat one-off flights.
Deliverables
- Weather-protected docking station on your property
- Scheduled or event-triggered flights, fully autonomous
- Daily or weekly map and 3D updates in your dashboard
- Automatic change detection between every flight
- Real-time alerts for intrusion, fire, livestock, or equipment
- We handle maintenance and pilot oversight
Use Cases
- •Ranch and livestock monitoring
- •Construction site progress tracking
- •Infrastructure inspection (cell towers, solar farms, pipelines)
- •Security and perimeter monitoring
- •Agricultural change detection and crop health over time
