Infrared & Thermal

Our helicopters and UAV's are equipped with infrared cameras to detect hotspots on fires and sense temperature differentials on buildings and infrastructure.

Survey / Mapping

Capture accurate, high resolution imagery and transform into 2D orthomosaics (maps) and 3D modelling (DEM, DSM, contours).

UAV Services

Fixed-wing and multi-rotor drones. Transport Canada approved for aerial data/image acquisition, tall structure inspection and wildfire operations.

Aerial Photography

Using stabilized cameras and systems, capture high resolution imagery or video of your project.

Helicopter Charters

A fleet of intermediate helicopters is available to meet your mission requirements - executive charter, observation/inspection, crew and equipment moves

Aerial Thermal and Infrared Scanning

Our thermal inspection equipment is fully gyro stabilised and captures radiometric images and video. Cameras are quick release mounted to enable the install, exchange, or removal in minutes permitting exceptional turn-around capabilities and utility of our aircraft and UAVs.

With this capability, Taiga can provide full post inspection reports of aerial detection covering thermal gradient and geo-referenced mapping of spot measurement of point of interest targets – undetected fire/smoulder, equipment fault/leakage, wildlife, etc.

GIS Services

Taiga’s Geographic Information System Services (GIS) group provides direct services and on-going support to our clients.

Deliverable data can range from finished imagery, maps and models to import ready data for clients’ GIS software requirements. Deliverables include;

Orthomosaic Images
Digital Elevation Modelling (DEM) (DSM) (DTM)
3D Modelling – visual representation “walk through”, simulations
Geo-referenced, digital photos and video – static or interactive with linked imagery/video
