How Our Aerial Survey Process Works
We understand that data collection requires meticulous planning. We have structured our survey protocol to ensure safety, precision, and maximum efficiency for your technical team.
01
Project Consultation & Route Mapping
The process begins with a detailed briefing. Our flight operations team works directly with your engineers or surveyors to understand the project objectives, specific flight grids, required altitudes, and target speeds.
02
Clearance & Permitting
Aerial surveying in Nepal requires specific government and security clearances. We assist in processing the necessary flight permits with the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) and relevant ministries to ensure your project stays on schedule.
03
Equipment Rigging & Testing
Our aircraft can be configured to accommodate specialized equipment. Whether you are using hand-held cameras, mounting external LiDAR sensors, or bringing a technical crew onboard, our engineers ensure everything is safely secured and tested before takeoff.
04
Precision Execution
Once airborne, our pilots execute the planned grid with absolute precision. Maintaining steady speeds and specific altitudes over rugged terrain, we provide the stable platform your team needs to gather uninterrupted, high-quality data.
What We Need to Plan Your Survey
To prepare an accurate flight plan and dispatch the right aircraft for your survey mission, we require the following critical information:
Project Scope
A clear description of what is being surveyed (e.g., pipeline routing, topographical mapping, wildlife tracking).
Exact Coordinates
Detailed maps, KML files, or GPS coordinates outlining the specific boundaries of the survey area.
Flight Parameters
The required flying altitude above ground level (AGL), preferred flying speed, and the estimated duration of the flight.
Equipment Details
The exact weight, dimensions, and mounting requirements of any specialized cameras or sensors you plan to use.
Personnel Details
The number of technicians, photographers, or researchers who will be flying onboard.
Preferred Timeline
Your target dates for the survey and any specific time-of-day requirements for optimal lighting or weather conditions.
