Who We Serve

Customer Verticals & Applied Solutions

Providing tailored, field-proven spatial capture across research institutions, traditional lands, government agencies, and commercial infrastructure.

Traditional Owners & Land Councils

Mapping Country, documenting cultural landscapes, recording environmental change, and supporting Ranger-led land management under strict local governance.

Cultural Governance • Data Sovereignty

Universities & Research

Project-based airborne LiDAR, photogrammetry, coastal monitoring, and academic research collaborations providing defensible, multi-temporal field datasets.

Environmental Science • Coastal Baselines

Government & Parks

Large-scale regional aerial surveys, park boundary monitoring, bushfire rehabilitation assessments, and regional planning deliverables across Northern Australia.

Regional Procurement • Public Assets

Engineering & Construction

Site terrain models, cut-and-fill volumetrics, visual progress tracking, civil works earthworks baselines, and accurate 3D spatial models for contractors.

Earthworks • Progress Capture

Resources & Rehabilitation

Stockpile volumetrics, open-pit topography, environmental compliance monitoring, pit stability visual surveys, and progressive post-mining rehabilitation audits.

Stockpiles • Environmental Compliance

Utilities & Corridors

Linear corridor mapping for powerlines, road easements, pipelines, and rail infrastructure with precise vegetation encroachment analysis.

Corridor Surveys • Asset Encroachment

First Nations Data Sovereignty

Mapping Country Under Traditional Owner Authority

Indigenous ownership does not equate to blanket cultural authority over another group's Country. We structure acquisition protocols, access controls, and data storage according to strict permissions established directly by Traditional Owners and Land Councils.

Sovereign Data Storage

Zero offshore processing. Cultural and commercial spatial archives remain protected within secure Australian-controlled infrastructure.

Ranger & Community Pathways

Direct, paid project involvement for local Rangers and Traditional Owners, creating sustainable careers in RPAS flight operations and GIS intelligence.

Governance & Operations

Company Leadership

Genuine Indigenous ownership, technical expertise, and disciplined project execution across Northern Australia.

JA
Managing Director & Technical Lead

Johnathan Ah Chee

Directs Indigenous cultural governance, Traditional Owner agreements, academic and environmental research networks, and technical flight operations across Katherine and the NT.

51% Indigenous Majority Ownership
