01 · Construction & Infrastructure

From groundbreak to handover. Aerial intelligence at every phase.

Construction progress monitoring, 3D as-built digital twins, and civil structure surveillance — all tracked in iHawk across the project lifecycle.

  • Construction progress monitoring — aerial captures at defined intervals, AI comparison against design plans, deviation detection before it becomes costly rework.
  • 3D As-Built Digital Twins — photogrammetry and LiDAR produce survey-grade as-built models for verification, handover documentation, and long-term asset records in iHawk.
  • Structure & Civil Inspection — crack detection, delamination, and corrosion monitoring on bridges, dams, and civil infrastructure, tracked photo-by-photo across years.

02 · Search & Rescue

Cover in minutes what ground teams take hours to search.

A missing person in difficult terrain, a maritime incident, a collapsed structure. Thermal drones locate heat signatures where ground access is restricted — day or night, in conditions that stop conventional search operations.

  • Large-area thermal search covering hundreds of hectares per flight
  • Real-time live video streamed directly to incident commanders
  • GPS-tagged heat signature coordinates delivered to rescue teams on the ground
  • Night operations — thermal imaging performs in zero visibility and dense vegetation
  • Multi-drone coordination for simultaneous coverage of large or segmented search zones
For
Mountain and terrain rescue · flood and earthquake response · maritime search · collapsed structure operations · missing persons in remote areas

03 · Security Monitoring — Drone in a Box

Your facility, patrolled autonomously. No crew required on-site.

A drone permanently stationed at your facility. Pre-programmed patrol routes run on a schedule. Any security alert triggers an autonomous launch within seconds — streaming live HD and thermal video to your operations center from wherever you are.

  • Autonomous perimeter and facility patrols on defined routes and schedules
  • Alert-triggered rapid launch — airborne within seconds of a security event
  • Real-time HD and thermal video to a remote security operations center
  • Night operations with thermal and low-light cameras
  • Automatic incident recording and geo-tagged evidence capture
  • Fully remote management — no on-site operator needed
For
Remote pipelines and substations · solar and wind farms · mines and industrial plants · critical infrastructure perimeters · border and corridor monitoring
ImageCargo UAV delivering supplies to an isolated area
04 · Disaster Relief — Cargo Drones

When roads are cut, we still deliver.

Floods, earthquakes, remote emergencies. Cargo UAVs reach GPS-designated drop points in areas with no road or conventional air access — delivering medical supplies, food, communications equipment, and essentials to where they're needed most.

  • Precision delivery to GPS coordinates in areas inaccessible by road or ground vehicle
  • Carries medical supplies, food packages, emergency communications gear, batteries
  • Multi-flight operations from a single forward staging location
  • Thermal reconnaissance combined with cargo delivery — locate and supply in the same operation
  • Coordination with civil protection, military, and humanitarian organizations
For
Flood response · earthquake aftermath · remote community emergency supply · industrial accident support · humanitarian logistics in isolated terrain
