  • Equipment inspectionsVisual and thermal checks of tanks, stacks, roofs and lines, with no lifts, scaffolding or climbing.
  • Methane & chemical surveysMethane leak detection and airborne hazardous chemical analysis across the site.
  • 3D mapping & measurementAccurate 3D models, maps and volume measurements of your facility. See what's included
  • Contractor progress trackingRepeat flights on a set schedule to check work against the plan.
  • Photo & video documentationRepeatable imagery from the same angles every time, for records, insurance and planning.

Emergency response

24/7
  • Rapid site contextA live overhead view of the whole scene, so decisions start with the full picture.
  • Inaccessible areasInspect damaged structures and hazard zones without sending anyone in.
  • Sensors & chemical analysisThermal readings and airborne chemical detection while the event is still unfolding.
  • Contractor oversightWatch response and repair crews from above and confirm what's being done.
  • Cleanup progress trackingA baseline map right after the event, then repeat flights to measure cleanup.
  • 24/7 client overwatchDay or night, on call for retainer clients whenever an event happens.

Safety, efficiency and speed can turn a major event into a minor problem.

3D mapping & measurement

Your whole facility, measurable from your desk

Every mapping flight is turned into an accurate 3D record of your site. Measure it, compare it and share it without sending anyone back out.

Thermal map
3D model
A detailed 3D model and point cloud of the facility you can rotate, inspect and fly through on video.
Overhead map
One sharp, stitched aerial image of the entire site, true to scale and tied to real-world coordinates.
Elevation & terrain
Surface and terrain models with contour lines that show grade, drainage and low spots.
Measurements
Distances, areas and heights measured directly on the map or the 3D model.
Volumes
Stockpile, excavation and debris volumes, including how much material was removed or added.
Cross-sections
Vertical and horizontal slices through the site for profiles, elevations and floor plans.
Thermal maps
Thermal imagery processed into maps, so hot spots are pinned to an exact location.
Reports & files
Clear reports with scale bars and north arrows, plus standard files your engineers can open in CAD and GIS software.

Contractor progress

We fly the same path on a set schedule and compare each model to the last one.

  • See exactly what changed between visits
  • Measure earthwork and material moved against the plan
  • Check contractor reports and pay requests against what was actually built
  • Keep a dated visual record if there's ever a dispute
DAY 1 · BASELINE FLIGHT 2 FLIGHT 3

Cleanup progress

After a spill, storm or fire, we map the site right away to set a baseline, then fly it again as cleanup goes on.

  • Measure how much debris or impacted soil has been removed
  • See the area still left to clear, on one map
  • Verify cleanup crews' work without putting your people in the hazard zone
  • Hand insurers and regulators clear before-and-after records

From the field

In the air and on the map

Sensor payloads turn a flight into data you can act on, from gas readings plotted across the site to thermal and visual records of your equipment.
