What you get · From first call to final folder

How it works,and what you get.

Five steps from first call to a shared folder of real, usable files. Every step on this page shows you something you can open.

Demonstration capture · Blair Street, Summerland BCRendered from 6,052 RTK images

The journey · The same five steps, every job

What happens between your call and your folder.

Scope call

A short conversation about what you need, what we'd fly, and exactly what you'll receive, put in writing before anything leaves the ground.

What you walk away with: a written scope and a capture date

Flight plan & airspace check

Every flight is planned against current airspace rules through NAV Drone. If your site needs additional authorization, you hear about it at the scope call, not on capture day.

What you walk away with: a flight plan that's cleared to fly

Capture day

RTK positioning on every flight, a reflectance-panel capture on program multispectral flights, and GCP targets placed when a job needs independent ground reference.

What you walk away with: data captured to a documented standard

In-house processing

We capture with DJI aircraft, and the same pilot who flew your site processes every file at our own desk. DJI Terra builds the maps and 3D models. Measurements come out of Virtual Surveyor, licensed measurement software for surfaces, contours, volumes, and cut-and-fill. Interactive 3D is packaged through streamed viewers that open in any browser, and multispectral crop health is processed in-house. Nothing waits in someone else's queue.

What you walk away with: georeferenced outputs in NAD83(CSRS)

Delivery & walkthrough

A shared client folder, interactive 3D where the job calls for it, and a short call to walk through what the data actually shows, with written findings prepared for grower and agronomist review where that applies.

What you walk away with: deliverables you can open, share, and act on

Once, or as an ongoing program on the schedule you set. Recurring captures are flown the same way each time, so you're comparing your site to itself.

Top-down orthomosaic of the Blair Street demonstration property in Summerland, BC: house, driveway, and grounds in one continuous georeferenced image.

The delivery folder

Everything in one place, organized before it reaches you.

When processing wraps, a shared client folder lands in your inbox. No login walls, no proprietary platform. Just a clean folder you can open, share with your team, and archive. Here is what the folder looks like.

Orthomosaic
Georeferenced top-down image of your site, ready to open in QGIS, ArcGIS, or any GIS platform. Delivered in NAD83(CSRS).
3D model
A .glb mesh file and a browser link. Load it in any 3D viewer, or share the link with anyone who needs to see the property in three dimensions.
Point cloud
A classified .las file with ground and above-ground classes, compatible with standard point-cloud tools. On mapping jobs it is the basis for DSM and DTM outputs.
Report (PDF)
A plain-language walkthrough of the job: cover and capture stats, true-colour view, vegetation indices when they are part of the job, and observations for grower and agronomist review.
Source flight
The original captured images, archived. If you ever need to re-process or your pipeline changes, the source data is yours.
README
A plain-English note explaining what each file is, what software opens it, and who to contact with questions.

The formats

Twelve deliverables, in the software your team already runs.

The folder above is a typical job; across everything we fly, this is the full set. Some of it opens in your browser with nothing to install: the interactive 3D link, the streaming maps, the PDF. The rest opens in your tools: QGIS, ArcGIS, CAD, spreadsheets, Google Earth. Every georeferenced layer is delivered in NAD83(CSRS), nothing locked behind a subscription. Tell us what your team runs and we match the deliverable to it.

GeoTIFF

Orthomosaic & index maps

The clean top-down map, plus multispectral vegetation-index layers (NDVI, NDRE, GNDVI, OSAVI, LCI), ready to open in QGIS, ArcGIS, or any GIS.

GeoTIFF

Elevation surfaces: DSM / DTM

A digital surface model and a bare-earth terrain model, the foundation for slope, drainage, and cut-and-fill work.

DXF

Contours & topographic data

Contour lines and topographic reference for engineering use, dropping straight into a CAD planning set.

LAS / LAZ

Classified point cloud

Every measured point, separated into ground and above-ground returns. This is the dataset surfaces and volumes are built from.

OBJ · GLB · FBX

Textured 3D model

The property as a full 3D mesh for any 3D viewer, plus an interactive browser link you can share with anyone.

SHP · GeoPackage · KML

GIS vector layers

Zones, counts, and points as ready-to-edit GIS layers you can open beside your own data.

CSV

Data tables

Class areas, measured volumes, and counts as spreadsheet data you can sort, chart, and track.

PDF

Plain-language report

The findings written up page by page: cover stats, maps, and observations, ready to forward.

MP4 · JPG

Video & imagery

4K cinematic flythroughs, short vertical social cuts, and high-resolution stills for presentations and the file.

KMZ

Google Earth overlay

Your maps draped straight onto Google Earth. Double-click to open and fly across the property in a tool nearly everyone already has.

GeoPDF

Offline field map (Avenza)

A georeferenced map for the free Avenza app. Open it on a phone or tablet with no signal, see your live position, and take planning-grade reference measurements right in the field.

COG · CoPC

Cloud-streaming maps & point clouds

Cloud-optimized versions of the orthomosaic and point cloud that stream in a browser, so you can pan and zoom through huge datasets without a giant download.

The proof · The report

A plain-language PDF, page by page.

The deliverable is a plain-language report, not a raw data dump: maps a grower can read, a guide to each layer, and observations written for grower and agronomist review. This sample is the full three-block, 21-page report from one multispectral flight over a Summerland vineyard. The first seven pages are below; click any page to read it.
