Air Grandson flies planned grid missions and processes every frame in-house with WebODM and QGIS. You get georeferenced files that drop straight into your GIS, CAD or project tools, not a folder of loose photos.

Who it is for. Civil engineers, surveyors, developers, municipalities and environmental teams who need current ground truth without a field crew walking the site.

How it is flown. Grid missions with high front and side overlap, flown at the altitude that gives the ground detail your job needs. Repeat visits reuse the same mission file.

What you get. Orthomosaics, surface and terrain models, contours, point clouds, textured 3D models and volume reports, in the formats your software reads.

Turnaround. Processing time depends on site size and outputs. You get a delivery date with the quote, and draft maps can be shared before the full set is finished.
