General Questions

The time to generate a report depends on the size of the area and the type of analysis required. Typically, our high-resolution orthomosaic maps and geospatial insights are delivered within 5 to 10 business days after data collection.

You are paying for precision mapping, advanced geospatial analysis, and actionable insights. Our service includes drone deployment, data processing, interpretation, and cloud-based delivery of all findings.

That depends on your goals. For monitoring crop health, land changes, or environmental restoration, regular mapping sessions (quarterly or bi-annual) are recommended. For boundary mapping or single-event analysis, a one-time service may be sufficient.

You definitely can, and we provide resources to support you. However, achieving the precision, analysis, and seamless delivery we offer requires specialized equipment, costly software, and technical expertise. We handle it all—hassle-free and cost-effective, so you can focus on what matters.

We deliver the heavy files securely via WeTransfer, while the PDF report is shared through WhatsApp or Email for quick access.

We are currently working on a cloud-based viewing link and a web app dashboard for real-time data tracking and even easier access to your insights—coming soon!

We store data on micro SD cards, local SSD hard drives, and cloud-based processing software. After your outputs are generated and approved, we typically delete raw image data to free up space and reduce digital clutter.

If you want to track changes over time, we can securely host your data on a cloud solution—available with a subscription plan. For standalone PDF reports, we may store them at our cost for a limited time.

We are committed to data privacy and ethical standards. While we may use anonymized data for community insights, your personal data remains confidential and can be deleted upon request.

We offer two main pricing models:

  • End-to-End Drone Mapping Services: Billed on a per-project basis or through a subscription model for regular monitoring and data hosting.

  • Consultancy Services (B2B): Available on an hourly retainer model. This gives you access to industry expertise, optimized workflows, and strategic guidance. Retainers also unlock opportunities to co-develop custom workflows and toolkits, which may be priced separately based on complexity. Additionally, long-term retainers open the door to exploring joint business opportunities, leveraging our drone capabilities and your domain expertise for impactful projects.

Payments are handled securely online, with clear invoicing details (including GST) provided once the project scope or consultancy agreement is confirmed.
