Problem
Resource exploration and utility sectors face challenges in efficiently identifying underground utilities, undocumented oil wells, and conducting large-scale vegetation management. Traditional methods are often costly, time-consuming, and lack the high-resolution data needed for accurate mapping and analysis.
Solution
Overhead Intelligence develops and deploys open-source unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) equipped with LiDAR, photogrammetry, and magnetometry technologies to provide high-resolution geospatial data for large-scale aerial mapping and mineral exploration. The company's UAS platforms enable efficient identification of underground utilities, undocumented oil wells, and support vegetation management through orthometric RGB and multispectral maps, as well as tree counting. By focusing on open-source systems, Overhead Intelligence aims to increase the capabilities of UAV-mounted aerial mapping systems and expand access to affordable, high-fidelity airborne data.
Target Audience
The primary customers are in the resource exploration and utility sectors, including companies involved in mineral exploration, oil and gas, and utility infrastructure management.
