Why agencies deploy with us

The operational advantage

1 / 6

Centimetre-grade accuracy

RTK and PPK workflows with DJI D-RTK 3 and GreenValley LiBase RTK deliver 2–5 cm absolute accuracy across open and forested terrain.

2 / 6

High-density point clouds

GreenValley LiAir and DJI Zenmuse L-series sensors capture 100–1,000+ pts/m² at survey altitude — enough for DTM, DSM, and classified vegetation layers.

3 / 6

Corridor & long-linear coverage

DeltaQuad Evo fixed-wing VTOL extends range to 100+ km per mission — pipeline ROW, transmission lines, and highway corridors in a single flight.

4 / 6

GPS-denied & indoor capture

GreenValley LiGrip SLAM LiDAR maps shafts, drifts, confined structures, and dense forest with no GNSS dependency.

5 / 6

Full-stack software pipeline

LiDAR360 for point cloud classification, DJI Terra for photogrammetry processing, and DJI Modify for deliverable editing — all from one dealer.

6 / 6

Survey-grade deliverables

Orthos, DSMs, DTMs, classified point clouds, and volumetric reports — in your coordinate system, ready for GIS, AutoCAD, or BIM workflows.

FAQ

Common questions

What drone LiDAR systems do you carry for aerial survey?

+

We carry a full range of aerial LiDAR sensors including the DJI Zenmuse L3, GreenValley LiAir X3C-H, LiAir X4, and LiAir H600, and YellowScan Mapper+ and Surveyor Ultra. For handheld and GPS-denied environments, we carry the GreenValley LiGrip H300 and LiGrip O2 Lite. As a GreenValley factory-authorized Canadian dealer and authorized DJI Enterprise partner, we provide full integration, training, and warranty support on every system.

What's the difference between drone LiDAR and photogrammetry for survey work?

+

LiDAR emits laser pulses and measures the time-of-flight return — it penetrates vegetation canopy, captures multiple returns per pulse, and delivers accurate ground models even in forested terrain. Photogrammetry processes overlapping camera imagery to generate point clouds and orthos — it's excellent for open terrain, delivers natural-colour outputs, and costs less per hectare. For most Canadian survey projects, the right choice depends on vegetation density, accuracy requirements, and deliverable type. We'll help you determine the correct approach during the scoping call.

Can you support centimetre-accurate RTK drone survey in Canada?

+

Yes. We deploy DJI D-RTK 3 multifunctional base stations and GreenValley LiBase RTK for real-time centimetre-accurate positioning. Our systems integrate directly with DJI Matrice 400, Matrice 4 series, and GreenValley LiAir platforms for RTK and PPK workflows that meet survey-grade accuracy standards under Transport Canada regulations.

Do you sell fixed-wing drones for corridor and long-range survey?

+

Yes — we carry the DeltaQuad Evo Enterprise, Evo Government, and Evo Stealth fixed-wing VTOL platforms. These are purpose-built for long-linear corridor survey — pipeline ROW, transmission lines, road corridors, and coastlines — with flight times up to 2.5 hours and a fully autonomous mission profile. They integrate with YellowScan Mapper+ and other lightweight LiDAR payloads for combined point cloud and ortho capture.

Do you provide training for survey drone operators in Canada?

+

Yes. We provide Transport Canada RPAS Advanced pilot training and flight reviewer certification, as well as platform-specific training for DJI Enterprise, GreenValley LiAir and LiGrip, YellowScan, and LiDAR360 software. Our training is delivered on-site at your survey location or at our regional offices in Mississauga (HQ), Calgary, Burnaby, Ottawa, and Montréal.

Can you handle subsurface and underground survey?

+

Yes. For underground shafts, drifts, stopes, and GPS-denied environments, we deploy GreenValley LiGrip SLAM LiDAR — available in the H300 (backpack + handheld) and O2 Lite (compact handheld) configurations. For Spot robot integration in underground mines and tunnels, we also carry the Leica BLK ARC — a mobile LiDAR scanner purpose-built for Boston Dynamics Spot. These systems deliver survey-grade point clouds without any GNSS signal.
