Five families. Twelve services. One flight crew.
Grouped by the decision you are trying to make, not by the sensor that happens to be bolted to the aircraft. If you already know what you need, go straight to the page. If you do not, the questions below each family are the ones that sort it.
Survey & Mapping
For when you need ground you can put a number on. Every job carries ground control, a stated accuracy figure and a written method note.
Drone LiDAR Survey
Bare-earth terrain under forest canopy, classified point clouds, DTM and DSM rasters and CAD contours. The only method that measures ground you cannot see from the air.
Full specifications →Mapping & Photogrammetry
High-resolution orthomosaics and surface models built from overlapping imagery. The right tool on open ground, and materially cheaper than LiDAR.
View service →Topographic Survey
Contours, spot elevations and breaklines for civil design and permitting, delivered in the coordinate system and interval your designer asked for.
View service →Volumetric & Stockpile Survey
Measured quantities for inventory reconciliation and earthworks progress claims. A surface beats a truck count, and repeat flights show drawdown over time.
View service →Survey deliverables are provided for information and planning purposes — not a legal survey. Boundary and legal plan work requires a British Columbia Land Surveyor.
Asset Inspections
For when you need to know the condition of something without putting a person in front of it. We supply located, dated evidence; your engineer supplies the judgement.
Aerial Inspections
Structures, building envelopes, roofs and industrial plant. High-resolution imagery indexed to position, with defects located rather than merely photographed.
View service →Thermal Inspection
Radiometric thermal imaging for electrical connections, roof moisture and envelope heat loss, flown alongside a visual pass on the same mobilisation.
View service →Powerline & Corridor
Transmission and distribution corridors, structure condition, and vegetation clearance measured off a classified point cloud rather than estimated by eye.
View service →We provide inspection data and documentation. Condition assessments, structural evaluations and geotechnical opinions are reserved practice under the Engineers and Geoscientists BC framework and are not offered.
Monitoring & Change Detection
For when a single visit is not the answer. Identical flight paths flown to a schedule, so this month compares to last month frame for frame and surface to surface.
Construction Progress Monitoring
A dated visual and measured record of the site each month, from repeatable positions. Settles progress claims, informs client reporting, and becomes the evidence file if anything is disputed later.
View service →Site & slope change detection
Surface-to-surface comparison between visits, quantifying movement, drawdown or accumulation. Used on quarries, stockpiles, reclamation areas and slopes under observation.
Quoted as a program rather than a single flight. Ask on the quote form.
Data, modelling and media
The desk-side of the business, plus the documentation work. No flight required for the first one — send us your own captures.
Data Processing & GIS
LiDAR processing and classification, point cloud and 3D model production, and CAD, BIM and GIS deliverables. Send us your own captures — no flight required.
View service →3D Modelling & Visualisation
Textured meshes, digital twins, panoramas and CAD or BIM-ready deliverables, from our captures or yours. Processing-only engagements are welcome.
View service →Aerial Media & Documentation
Project documentation, stakeholder and community visuals, and evidentiary records for insurance and dispute files. Flown by the same certified crew as the survey work.
View service →Emergency Response Support
Rapid situational imagery and thermal overwatch in support of agency operations. Deployed only at the request of the responsible authority.
View service →Describe the problem, not the service
Choose “help me work it out” on the quote form and tell us what decision the data has to support. We will tell you which method fits, what accuracy the job actually needs, and where a drone is the wrong tool.
