what can we do for you

Key Services

  • High Resolution Imagery

    High resolution true-colour orthophoto/imagery (1-5 cm resolution).

    Applications:

    • Site management planning
    • Habitat monitoring through visual inspection
    • Poster and canvas printing
  • High Resolution Multispectral Imagery

    5-band: Red, Green, Blue, Near-infrared (NIR) and Red edge (RE), processed to chosen spectral indices (3-10 cm resolution).

    Applications:

    • Monitoring terrestrial vegetation biomass, productivity, and/or phenology
    • Monitoring freshwater and marine vegetation biomass and productivity
    • Monitoring surface water bodies
    • Monitoring water quality, turbidity and phytoplankton biomass
  • Habitat Mapping

    Object based classification, canopy height derived, or visual inspection.

    Applications:

    • Monitoring change in broad habitat types
    • Monitoring vegetation structure
  • Photometric 3D Point Cloud Modeling

    Detailed 3D landscape models.

    Applications:

    • Monitoring terrestrial vegetation and terrain structure

  • Digital Surface Modeling (DSM)

    Capturing the height and terrain of the landscape (1-5 cm resolution)

    Applications:

    • Monitoring vegetation structure
    • Monitoring terrain morphology
    • As input to habitat classification, geomorphological and hydrological products
  • Ornithological Surveys

    Document bird abundance and nesting activity across a range of habitats. Using high-resolution aerial imagery, while minimising disturbance to wildlife.

    Applications:

    • Population monitoring and bird abundance estimates
    • Nest detection, nest counts, and breeding success assessments
    • Colony mapping for seabirds and waterbirds
    • Monitoring sensitive, remote, or inaccessible areas
  • Cinematic Drone Videography

    High-quality aerial footage that captures landscapes, infrastructure, and activities from dynamic perspectives. Using professional-grade drones and stabilized cameras, producing video that enhances storytelling, marketing, and documentation across a wide range of projects.

    Applications:

    • Promotional and brand storytelling content
    • Environmental and conservation storytelling
    • Social media and digital marketing campaigns

  • Geospatial and Geomorphological Products

    Including slope, aspect, Terrain Ruggedness Index (TRI), Topographic Position Index (TPI), terrain curvature, hillshade, viewshed, flow accumulation, basin and watershed delineation, sink identification, solar radiation, soil erosion and deposition, and many more (1-5 cm resolution).
