Bhoomi Survey Pvt Ltd Accelerates Land Modernization in Punjab with Aeroyantra
Bhoomi Survey Pvt Ltd, a leading surveying and mapping firm based in Punjab, India, is at the forefront of the nation's push to digitize land records. Tasked with large-scale cadastral mapping for government modernization projects, they needed a technology partner that could offer both speed and a flexible cost structure.
As the company took on more drone-based survey projects, they turned to Aeroyantra to escape the rigid, expensive software subscriptions that were limiting their profitability. By standardizing on Aeroyantra's pay-per-use platform, Bhoomi Survey can now process massive datasets affordably, accelerate project delivery, and provide government authorities with highly accurate digital maps.
The Challenge: Fixed Costs and Processing Bottlenecks
Before partnering with Aeroyantra, Bhoomi Survey relied on a mix of traditional surveying methods and multiple drone mapping software with expensive annual licenses. This created significant operational and financial challenges.
The project-based nature of government tenders meant that costly software subscriptions would sit idle between contracts, draining resources. Furthermore, processing the large volumes of data required for village-scale mapping was a major bottleneck, demanding powerful in-house hardware and complex desktop software.
“The annual software licenses were a major fixed cost that didn't align with our project-based revenue. We needed a powerful processing solution that scaled with our business, not a fixed cost that held us back." — Jaskaran Singh, Director of Operations, Bhoomi Survey Pvt Ltd
The Solution: A Flexible, Pay-Per-Use Cloud Platform
Bhoomi Survey selected Aeroyantra as its primary platform for photogrammetry processing. The pay-per-hectare model was a perfect fit, eliminating fixed costs and allowing the company to budget with per-project precision. Now, teams conduct drone flights and simply upload the data to Aeroyantra's cloud platform.
For a recent large-scale project covering several villages, Bhoomi Survey captured and processed over 20,000 drone images, mapping an approximate area of 1,500 hectares—a task managed seamlessly by Aeroyantra's cloud infrastructure.
Aeroyantra handles the heavy computational work, delivering:
- High-resolution orthomosaics for accurate parcel demarcation
- Digital Surface Models (DSMs) for terrain analysis
- GIS-ready outputs that integrate directly into their client's systems
"With Aeroyantra, our workflow is simple: fly, upload, and receive processed maps. The pay-per-hectare model is a game-changer for government tender projects. We pay for exactly what we process, which allows us to bid more competitively and operate more profitably." — Jaskaran Singh
Benefits and ROI: Faster Delivery, Reduced Costs, and Greater Accuracy
By moving to Aeroyantra's unified platform, Bhoomi Survey eliminated redundant software costs and manual processing bottlenecks. The efficiency gains were immediate, allowing them to take on more projects simultaneously.
The key results include:
- 40% reduction in software expenditure by moving away from annual subscriptions.
- Seamlessly processed massive datasets, including a single project with over 20,000 images covering 1,500 hectares, with a 5x faster turnaround time compared to previous desktop solutions.
- Improved data accuracy leading to faster approvals from land record authorities.
“The clarity of the orthomosaics has been invaluable. We can easily identify property boundaries and resolve potential disputes with clear visual evidence. This builds immense trust with the government bodies we serve." — Jaskaran Singh
The Bottom Line: Empowering Surveyors for a Digital India
Aeroyantra is now central to how Bhoomi Survey executes its most critical projects. The flexible, powerful platform ensures that the firm can profitably support India's digital transformation initiatives with speed and precision.
“Our clients in the government don't just see a map; they see a verifiable, digital proof of every land parcel. Aeroyantra made that possible at a cost that makes business sense for us.”
