Aerial Drone Operations
Precision Mapping for Safer, Smarter Land & Waterway Management
At MTM, we use the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise drone to improve safety, efficiency, and accuracy in stream restoration, vegetation control, logjam identification, and dam or bridge maintenance. This lightweight, high-performance drone helps us cover more ground, capture more detail, and make faster, better-informed decisions.
Precision Aerial Solutions
Smarter Data, Safer Access
Our drone technology allows us to inspect steep banks, dense vegetation, and remote waterways without putting crews at risk. The Mavic 3 Enterprise gives us real-time, high-resolution visuals and topographic data—no boots or machinery on the ground required.
Precision Tools, Real-Time Results
With a 20MP wide camera, RTK positioning, and 56× hybrid zoom, our drone operations offer exact mapping, accurate measurements, and crisp visuals from above. Omnidirectional obstacle sensors keep flights safe, even around tree canopies or infrastructure.
Advanced Aerial Technology
- 4/3 CMOS 20MP camera with mechanical shutter
- 56× hybrid zoom for close inspections at safe distances
- RTK module for ±0.1m mapping precision
- Omnidirectional obstacle sensing for safe navigation
- 45-minute max flight time, covering up to 32km on a single charge
