AERIAL DATA FOR MORE INFORMED DECISIONS

CAPABILITES

Photogrammetry & LiDAR

Aerial LiDAR is a 3D mapping technology that enables incredibly fast and accurate surveys. Utilizing drone based LiDAR increases the efficiency of data collection and saves our clients money over traditional manned aircraft methods.

Indoor & Confined Space Inspections

Capture HD and thermal and analyze like never before. A powerful LED system lets us seen in the dark, plus the on-board gas detection system provides greater awareness before sending in a repair team.

Thermal Imaging

Identify areas of heat generation (or lack thereof) with thermal inspections. Empire Drone uses industry leading FLIR cameras to collect infrared data. Inspect solar panels, roofs, facades, power lines, and more. Create maps of infrared data to spot problem areas fast.

Gas Detection

Optical Gas Detection is one of the most effective methods to detect gas emissions. With our drone-mounted detection system, Empire Drone is able to deliver our clients quicker, more accurate inspections while keeping their team out of harm's way.

Multispectral Mapping

Walking an entire field to monitor plants is time-consuming, and error-prone. Our aerial multispectral sensors can capture data faster, which enable the detection, on a quantitative basis, of potential issues with things like water, pest, soil, and fertilizers.

Asset Inspections

Our drone platforms are equipped with either Electro-Optical (EO), thermal (IR), Multispectral, or LiDAR sensors. These sensors enable Empire Drone to reduce our Client's inspection costs and increase efficiency, while minimizing safety hazards for their team.
