Dragon Air UAS

Dragon Air UAS mission is to provide your business with the highest quality data products to help you make better business decisions.

We capture data, deliver data, and help you to get the most out of data whether it is volumetrics, thermal imaging, inspections or photography. The data we collect using our UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems) is more practical, more accurate, and more cost-effective than traditional methods.

Based out of Cambridge, Ontario, Canada, we provide a professional, safe and complete engagement. Our UAS, flight plans, safety protocols, and pilots are registered for advanced operations (with reviewer status) with Transport Canada and insured.

Regardless of industry, your ability to explore unidentified opportunities and diagnose problems is critical. Let us help.

Services

Photo/Cine

Our specialized UAV team combines drones for aerial photography and cinematography with wide-ranging skillsets to deliver client-specific aerial imaging services through-out Canada. We do aerial photo and video for architecture, construction projects, agriculture condition reporting (thermal), insurance, real estate portfolios, and security imaging.

Delivering industry-leading drone cinematography to various industries, Dragon Air UAS leverages their extensive experience and proprietary technology that makes us an industry leader in drone services.

We can offer rates for single-pilot operations or let you control the shots.

‘We Fly, You Shoot’

Utilizing a second remote controller for our DJI Inspire 2 or Matrice 210 RTK allows one of your camera operators, DPs or Directors control over the UAVs 360º rotating gimbal and camera. We control the UAV and you control the shots.

Our UAVs have the ability to shoot in 1080p / 4K H.264 or 5.2K CinemaDNG / ProRes 422 HQ / 4444 XQ.

Technology

We utilize a fleet UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles), often referred to as drone aircraft, that are remotely controlled and assisted by GPS position and altitude.

These aircraft provide a super stable platform that allows us to gather photos and video, ranging from small 4 motor DJI Mavic Pro (quadcopter) for confined areas and up to large DJI Inspire 2 and Matrice 210 drone systems with full 3 axis 360-degree gimbals carrying cameras.

The size and nature of these aircraft allow us to specialize in low altitude, high definition aerial imaging that traditional aircraft or ground-based systems cannot obtain, in a safer and more economical manner.

Infrastructure

Dragon Air UAS offers an aerial infrastructure surveying capabilities, Allowing for the otherwise inaccessible parts of structures to be monitored, such as buildings and communications towers.

Compared to conventional options, UAVs create far less risks for your personnel and costs are much lower as the inspection no longer requires the structure to be shut down, i.e. pylons or flare stacks

The use of drone aerial photography and video has been recognized as a remarkable revolution in the inspection of bridges and other infrastructure.

Drones can save time, deliver efficiency and cut costs. The use of the technology provides a number of essential improvements over the traditional methods of bridge and infrastructure inspection methods.

Drone aerial photography and video for the process of bridge inspection could actually be a valuable game changer for the industry. The use of the technology puts the workforce at risk, as they do not need to climb high, risky and hard-to-reach areas and infrastructure. Drones also make it easier for the workers and engineers to see the bridges’ hardest-to-reach sections at any time with little to no preparation or notice in advance requires.

Our fleet of UAVs is equipped with hi-resolution digital cameras with lens from telephoto to thermal lenses, meaning structures can be monitored to a high level of detail.

In addition to photos and video, we can also provide you with 3D models and Cloud Data for uses beyond visual inspection.

Never before has infrastructure survey been so flexible, inexpensive and non-intrusive.

Aerial Mapping and Surveying

We can augment your project with an aerial survey capability allowing for a site of any size to be accurately imaged and 3D-modelled, without the expense of using a full-sized aircraft.

Our UAVs can cover large areas in short spaces of time, generating orthographic maps to a high level of detail. These can be produced periodically, enabling the site’s progress to be monitored as it develops.

All of the processes are low-impact and our presence is non-intrusive, so work can continue on the ground as normal.

If required, the 3D modelling option allows for certain areas to be reviewed and analysed from any angle, either for PR purposes, or as a communication tool in management meetings.

These 3D models can also then be converted for use within CAD packages.

Our survey capability gives more control and flexibility than other options, as the Dragon Air UAS pilot can work together with the surveyor, who can see the imagery live on-screen as it is captured.
