Environmental & Conservation Mapping
Some of the most important places in Hawaiʻi are also the most sensitive. We document habitat, shoreline, watershed, and cultural resources with high-resolution remote sensing and a light field footprint — gathering the data without disturbing the place.
Document without disturbing
Drones let us survey fragile and hard-to-reach areas — shorelines, wetlands, steep watersheds, restoration sites — with almost no footprint on the ground. That means baseline and monitoring data for habitat, erosion, invasive-species spread, and restoration progress, captured repeatably and without trampling the very resource you're trying to protect.
Cultural resources, handled with care
Hawaiʻi's cultural landscape deserves respect, not just measurement. We support cultural-resource documentation with non-invasive mapping and a commitment to handling sensitive sites appropriately — including places like Kahoʻolawe where access and stewardship come first. We work alongside the people who hold kuleana for these places, on their terms.
