How it works
Every point, checked.
Coverage, not sightings. This is how an area goes from unknown to accounted for.
The difference
Coverage, not sightings.
A sighting · one pass
A sighting
One pass. What was seen is known; everything else is a guess.
Coverage · 1,610 points checked
Coverage
Every point checked, with a time. What was found is flagged, and so is what wasn’t there.
Four steps
From unknown to accounted for.
-
01
Define the area
You give us the area and what matters in it. We set the grid: every point that will be checked, on land and at sea.
-
02
Plan the swarm
We split the area into bands, one per aircraft, and plan the passes so each overlaps the last.
-
03
Fly and check
Aircraft work their bands day and night. Each point turns from pending to checked as it is covered. Contacts are flagged the moment they are found.
-
04
Report
When the area is complete, you get the coverage report: every point, every contact, nothing left out.
What you see
A live view, and a record when it’s done.

The coverage report.
A plain record of the task: the area, the points checked, every contact with its time and position, and anything that stopped us. It is written the way a good report is written, and it is the same every time.
