Deep Experience in Data Acquisition Around the World

Our fleet of versatile Cessna Caravan aircraft, equipped with single or dual hatches, forms the backbone of our aerial survey capabilities. These modern turbine aircraft are strategically configured to accommodate a range of sophisticated sensors. We offer flexibility to meet your specific project requirements. You can operate your sensors on our aircraft with your own operators or entrust our experienced team with a complete turnkey solution encompassing aircraft, pilot, and sensor operation. This adaptable approach ensures optimal results tailored to your unique geospatial needs.

Lidar and Imagery Acquisition
We help our clients to capture high-resolution geospatial data with our modern aircraft, equipped with single or dual camera ports. Our aircraft accommodate large-format cameras capturing high-resolution photogrammetric imagery (nadir and oblique) and sophisticated lidar systems for capturing data to generate 3D mapping products.
Bathymetric Acquisition
Our bathymetric services combine precision aviation with advanced bathymetric sensors to deliver exceptional coastal and riverene mapping solutions. Our experienced pilots excel in the unique challenges of bathymetric surveys, navigating the complex and time-sensitive requirements essential for capturing accurate topo-bathymetric data.
Geophysical Acquisition
Revolution Geosystems has an efficient geophysical acquisition program. Our aircraft are modified with a tail boom and wingtip pods to carry high resolution magnetic and radiometric sensors. Our pilots understand the technical precision required to maintain low level flying with exact flight parameters. We hold a low-level FAA flight waiver in the lower 48 states.
