Aerial services — Vertical 01
Survey, inspection and agricultural drone services
Data-grade aerial operations for mining, power, solar, infrastructure, agriculture and government — delivered with the permissions, pilots and insurance already in place.
Aerial survey & mapping
Topographic survey, photogrammetry, orthomosaics, contour generation and volumetric computation with RTK/PPK ground control.
- Deliverables: orthomosaic, DSM/DTM, contours, DXF/DWG, point cloud
- Accuracy class stated per project and verified against control points
Solar plant thermal inspection
Per-module thermal fault detection across utility-scale plants, with a GPS-tagged defect register and generation-loss estimate.
- Deliverables: thermal orthomosaic, defect register, loss estimate
- Fault classes: hot cell, bypass diode, string outage, soiling, PID
Transmission line & substation
Thermal and high-resolution visual inspection of conductors, insulators, hardware and substation assets without shutdown.
- Deliverables: defect register by tower/span, thermal anomalies, imagery
- Corridor mapping and right-of-way encroachment reporting
Mining & quarry volumetrics
Stockpile volume computation, lease boundary verification, haul road and bench monitoring, and monthly progress comparison.
- Deliverables: volumetric report, period-on-period change, boundary overlay
- Suited to the Singrauli, Katni and Panna belts
Agricultural drone operations
Precision spraying, crop health mapping and insurance loss assessment for FPOs, cooperatives and estate farms.
- Spraying contracted per acre at FPO or cooperative level
- NDVI / multispectral crop health and yield estimation
Public safety & surveillance
Crowd and traffic monitoring, forest and anti-poaching patrol support, disaster mapping, and counter-UAS detection integration.
- Civil surveillance and situational awareness only
- No armed or weaponised payloads, under any contract
How an engagement runs
Six steps, no surprises
| Step | What happens | What you receive |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Airspace assessment | Site coordinates checked against the live Digital Sky map; zone classification and permission route confirmed. | Written airspace note — issued before quotation |
| 2. Method statement | Flight plan, sensor selection, ground control strategy, accuracy target, weather window and risk assessment. | Method statement and risk assessment |
| 3. Permissions | Digital Sky authorisation, landowner and site permissions, insurance confirmation, site safety briefing. | Copies of all authorisations held on file |
| 4. Field operation | RPC-certified pilot plus observer. Pre-flight, in-flight and post-flight checklists recorded. | Flight log and raw data acknowledgement |
| 5. Processing & QA | Data processing, accuracy verification against control, independent internal review before release. | QA sign-off sheet |
| 6. Delivery | Deliverables issued in agreed formats with a walkthrough session. | Final report and source data |
Agriculture
Spraying, mapping and loss assessment
Madhya Pradesh's soybean, wheat, gram and mustard cycle is well suited to drone application — faster coverage, lower water and chemical use, and no operator exposure to spray drift.
We contract at FPO, cooperative and estate level rather than farmer by farmer, which keeps rates predictable and collections clean.
- Spraying — contracted per acre with agronomy protocol per crop stage
- Crop health mapping — NDVI and multispectral, with prescription maps
- Loss assessment — defensible imagery and reporting for crop insurance claims
- Operator network — academy graduates operating under our brand and protocols
Public safety — scope statement
What we do, and what we will not do
Civil surveillance and response
- Crowd and event monitoring for police and district administration
- Traffic flow and incident observation for municipal bodies
- Forest patrol, fire detection and wildlife census support
- Flood and disaster mapping, post-event damage assessment
- Search and rescue support with thermal payloads
- Counter-UAS detection system integration for airports, plants and prisons
Permanently excluded
- Any weaponised payload or armed platform
- Carriage of dangerous goods by unmanned aircraft
- Any surveillance without lawful authority from the requesting agency
- Operations in red zone airspace without Central Government approval
Weaponising a drone is a criminal offence in India. We decline this work and we state that publicly so there is no ambiguity in any procurement conversation.
Common questions
Before you enquire
Do you handle the flight permissions, or do we?
We do. Digital Sky authorisation, airspace clearance and coordination with the relevant authority are part of every engagement and are included in the quoted price.
What accuracy can you achieve on a topographic survey?
It depends on flying height, sensor, ground control density and terrain. We state a target accuracy class in the method statement before work begins and verify the delivered output against independent check points.
Can you fly inside city limits in Bhopal or Indore?
Sometimes. Large parts of both cities fall within airport-proximity airspace where permission is required and is not always granted. We check the specific site coordinates and give you a written answer before quoting.
Do you work outside Madhya Pradesh?
Yes. Our remote pilot certificates are valid nationally. Location-specific airspace permissions are obtained for each project site wherever it is in India.
Is your team insured?
Yes. Third-party liability cover is maintained on our operating fleet, and certificates are provided with the pre-mobilisation document pack.
