OUR SERVICES
Four Core Service Lines
Purpose-built for engineering firms, municipalities, and construction teams — from airborne data capture through to georeferenced, QA-verified deliverables.
LiDAR / Topographic Scanning
High-density point clouds that penetrate vegetation canopy for bare-earth terrain models, volumetric analysis, and corridor surveys — at a fraction of traditional survey cost.
Learn more Photogrammetry + Digital Twins
Sub-3cm orthomosaics and measurable 3D models that integrate into BIM and GIS workflows — for construction monitoring, as-built documentation, and condition assessment.
Learn more Consulting + Training
TC Advanced RPAS-certified consulting for organizations building internal UAV programs — SOPs, regulatory compliance, pilot training, and equipment selection.
Learn more Advanced Inspection
Safe, detailed visual and thermal inspection of bridges, towers, roofs, and pipelines — without lane closures, scaffolding, or rope access.
Learn moreWhy Compass UAV
Any operator can put a drone in the air. Few understand the coordinate systems, classification workflows, and file formats that make aerial data useful to an engineering team. That's the gap Compass UAV was built to close — and the reason our clients come back.
