SEE YOUR SITE THE WAY WE DELIVER IT

One drone flight becomes measurable intelligence: photoreal 3D models, temperature surveys, vegetation health — processed end-to-end on Northline-controlled infrastructure in North America, reviewed by experts, delivered in your portal.

PROCESSED IN NORTH AMERICA NO THIRD-PARTY SCANNING CLOUDS EXPERT-REVIEWED DELIVERABLES

STOCKPILE SURVEY

A gravel pit flown and rebuilt in 3D — then measure it yourself. Click round a pile for its volume, cut a section through a bench, read any height. Checked against a terrestrial laser scan of the same ground: 9 cm median.

CHANGE OVER TIME

The same lakeshore laser-scanned five years apart, and every centimetre of difference mapped — ground raised or lowered with volumes attached, canopy gained and lost. Where the analysis isn't sure, it says so instead of guessing.

TERRAIN & CANOPY

Laser scanning that measures the trees AND the ground beneath them in one flight. Forested Canadian Shield in Muskoka — toggle the forest away, cut a section, read any height. Our bare earth checked against the province's own survey: 0 cm median, under dense canopy.

A photoreal, measurable model of a building complex — spin it in your browser. Built from 172 drone photos, every one placed.

The survey skeleton behind the model, with the drone's actual flight path — how coverage is proven before we deliver.

Per-pixel temperature imaging that finds electrical faults, moisture and heat loss before they become failures. Three seasons of a live solar site.

VEGETATION HEALTH

Multispectral crop and canopy analysis — a whole maize field graded plot by plot, with three weeks of growth on a slider.

Where a building is losing heat through its roof — each loss located, ranked and measured against the surrounding surface. Shown with the research set’s expert labels while our own detection is built.

CROP & WEED COUNT

Five-band multispectral, where a weed and a maize plant separate band by band. The scene shown carries twenty maize against two hundred and thirty-five weeds — the research set’s expert labels, and what our detector is being trained against.

Cracking, peeling render and staining traced along their length on a building elevation — the whole face covered, without a ladder or a cherry picker. Shown with the research set’s expert labels while our own detection is built.

01Fly

We fly your site — or a vetted local pilot flies it to our capture spec.

02Process

Imagery becomes models, maps and measurements on Northline infrastructure — nothing leaves North America.

03Review

Experts analyse the results and attest every finding.

04Deliver

Interactive deliverables land in your Northline portal, ready to share.

Demonstrations use public research imagery, published under CC BY 4.0 and credited on each page. Some pages show our own output and some show a research dataset's expert labels, and each page says which. Heat-loss, crop/weed and facade show the datasets' ground-truth annotations. Thermal and vegetation show our own model's detections, with its measured accuracy stated on the page. The stockpile survey is our own reconstruction and our own measurements. Measurements are scan-derived to support expert review — not survey-grade. © Northline Readiness.
