How It Works

Six steps from inquiry to deliverable

01

Project Consultation

We work with your team to understand project requirements, timeline, and deliverable specifications.

02

Flight Planning

Our specialists handle all flight planning, regulatory compliance, and equipment preparation.

03

Data Acquisition

Our certified pilots conduct the LiDAR drone survey, ensuring comprehensive data collection.

04

Processing & QA

Raw LiDAR data is processed, georeferenced, and quality-checked by our technical team.

05

Data Delivery

You receive clean, classified point cloud data ready for integration into your existing workflows.

06

Optional Services

We can provide additional deliverables like contour maps, DEMs, or 3D models based on your needs.

Case Studies

Real results for real projects

Riverbank Erosion Study

Challenge

5km of riverbank showing accelerating erosion threatening infrastructure.

Solution

Quarterly LiDAR surveys with change detection analysis.

Result

Erosion rate quantified. Stabilization plan implemented. Monitoring ongoing.

Wetland Restoration

Challenge

50-hectare wetland restoration project needed baseline and progress monitoring.

Solution

Bi-annual LiDAR surveys documenting vegetation and water levels.

Result

Restoration on track. 85% native species return documented. Grant secured.

Post-Flood Assessment

Challenge

Rapid assessment needed after major flood event across 300 hectares.

Solution

Emergency LiDAR deployment within 24 hours of flood peak.

Result

Damage mapped in 48 hours. Recovery plan approved 2 weeks early.
