01

Capture

We fly the property and capture high-resolution RGB imagery if weed detection is required.

02

Detect

AI-assisted analysis identifies and maps the target weeds across the site.

03

Plan

The mapped data becomes a precise, practical treatment prescription.

04

Apply

A drone, spray boom or person on the ground treats the mapped weeds using the most suitable method for the job.

05

Report

You receive a clear record of coverage, inputs and completed work.

06

Follow up

We return to check the application results, confirm weed kills and identify any areas that need another treatment.

Plan the job.
Protect the budget.

Mapping turns a broad weed problem into a measurable scope of work. We locate the targets, define the treatment area and plan the inputs before application begins—so decisions are based on evidence, not guesswork.

Target locations and treatment boundaries turn the property into a clear, costable job.

01 / LOCATE

Map the actual problem

See where the target weeds are, how they are distributed and decide the most cost effective application method.

02 / MEASURE

Quantify the treatment

Weed maps help landowners understand the scale of the issue by clearly showing the weed areas and locations across the property.

03 / PLAN

Build a realistic budget

Plan the method and resources around the measured weed burden instead of budgeting for an unknown problem.

04 / RECORD

Keep the evidence

Retain mapped weed locations and completed coverage as a useful record for reporting and future treatment decisions.

Chemical savings come from exclusionKnow where not to spray.

By knowing exactly where the weeds are, we can focus chemical on the problem areas instead of spraying large areas unnecessarily. That helps save product, time and money.

FIELD / APPLICATIONTechnology backed by practical operators.

Highly trained, experienced operators work from fully equipped 4WD utes, with backup drones and critical spare parts on hand to keep every job reliable and moving.

The right aircraft
for the mission.

Different jobs need different aircraft. Our fleet lets us choose the right mapping or application tool for the property, terrain and weed problem.

01
High-capacity application

Agras T100

Our spot-spraying workhorse. Long range and large payload capacity make it ideal for extensive weed patches and jobs demanding high output

02
Mobile application

Agras T25

Compact enough to move by ATV into difficult country, while retaining the control and output needed for sporadic weed populations.

03
Rapid blanket application

P150 Max

A lightweight and dependable platform for time-sensitive work where reliable coverage and efficient setup matter most.

04
Detailed visual mapping

Matrice 4E

Long flight time and exceptional imagery, with zoom, laser rangefinding and low-light capability for complex mapping missions.

05
Detailed visual mapping

Mavic 3M

High-resolution RGB imagery gives the AI the visual detail needed to locate target weeds and support treatment decisions.

06
Heavy-duty mapping

Matrice 300

Built for the most demanding weed-detection work, where endurance, payload flexibility and image quality are non-negotiable.
