Where it works well
This service works well across rural, commercial and environmental sites where careful planning matters. It can be suitable for farms, orchards, council areas, reserves and conservation work.
Some sites are better suited to drone application. Others are better handled with ground equipment. In many cases, the best approach depends on access, vegetation, weather, product choice and the surrounding environment.
