Drone Survey and LiDAR Services Across India
DGCA-certified pilots. Drone photogrammetry and LiDAR in one team. Deliverables pre-formatted for IBM Rule 34A, NHAI, RERA, DGMS, and SECI — accepted first time, every time. Compliance-ready data in 48 hours.
Two Survey Technologies. One Team. One Quote.
Most Indian survey vendors offer either drone photogrammetry or LiDAR - not both. We carry both capabilities in-house, which means we recommend the right technology for your specific site conditions, not the one we happen to own.
Drone Photogrammetry
Best for open terrain, construction sites, agricultural land, solar farms, and land surveys where visual surface data is sufficient.
- 2-5cm GSD orthomosaics
- DSM, DTM, contour maps
- Fastest turnaround: same day to 48 hours
- Lowest cost per acre
- Ideal for: RERA, NHAI earthwork, PMFBY, solar EPC
LiDAR Survey
Advanced TechnologyBest for vegetated terrain, forested mining corridors, utility and powerline routes, and any project where bare-earth accuracy under canopy is required.
- ±2-5cm point cloud accuracy
- Bare-earth DTM through vegetation
- Classified LAS/LAZ point clouds
- Penetrates vegetation and dust
- Ideal for: IBM Rule 34A in forested mines, NHAI corridor DPRs, powerline vegetation encroachment, railway alignment surveys
Both Technologies Deliver:
DXF / DWG for AutoCAD · GeoTIFF for raster outputs · LAS/LAZ for point clouds · KML/KMZ · PDF compliance reports · ArcGIS, QGIS, Civil 3D, Bentley MicroStation compatible
Why Survey Projects Stall in India - and How We Eliminate Each Problem
Four problems that cost you time and money - and exactly how we eliminate each one.
Vendor delays cost you money
Site sits idle. Contractor mobilisation is wasted. Deadlines slip. You pay for someone else's scheduling problem.
DGCA-certified teams with both photogrammetry and LiDAR equipment deployed within agreed timelines across all major project belts - Odisha to Gujarat, Rajasthan to Karnataka. One vendor. One call.
Wrong report format means rejected submissions
IBM Rule 34A, RERA, NHAI, DGMS, SECI - each authority has precise format requirements. One wrong field and your submission comes back. Weeks lost.
Every deliverable is pre-formatted for its specific regulatory authority before leaving our processing team. We know what IBM wants, what NHAI accepts, and what RERA requires. No rework.
You can't verify contractor earthwork claims
Contractor bills for 50,000 cubic metres. You have no independent record. Disputes, cost overruns, and legal exposure follow.
Survey-grade drone and LiDAR measurements give you a defensible, time-stamped volume record tied to real GPS coordinates. Court-admissible. Accepted by project lenders and independent engineers.
Standard photogrammetry fails in vegetated or dusty terrain
Your mining lease is forested. Your highway corridor runs through dense scrub. Standard drone cameras can't see through canopy to bare earth - your survey comes back wrong.
LiDAR penetrates vegetation and dust to deliver accurate bare-earth terrain regardless of surface conditions. We recommend LiDAR where photogrammetry will fail - and quote both options so you choose.
How It Works
Four steps from your first message to survey data in your hands.
Share Your Site Details
Tell us the location, area, project type, terrain conditions, and timeline. You receive a written quote within 2 hours - photogrammetry, LiDAR, or both - with no site visit required.
We Handle All Planning
Flight path design, GCP layout, LiDAR sensor configuration, DGCA airspace clearance, and equipment allocation are handled end-to-end. Nothing falls on your team.
Certified Pilots Survey Your Site
DGCA-certified pilots deploy with RTK drones and LiDAR sensors as required. Complete site coverage in one mobilisation. Done right.
Deliverables Arrive in 24-48 Hours
Orthomosaics, DSMs, DTMs, LiDAR point clouds, contour maps, volumetric reports, and compliance outputs - delivered in the formats your project needs, ready to use.

What You Get When You Work With Aeroyantra
Four key advantages that change every part of your survey experience.
Data in 24–48 Hours
In-house processing infrastructure - no third-party software queues. Your project schedule does not wait for our software vendor. LiDAR data processed and classified in-house, same turnaround.
Lower Cost Per Acre
No external software licensing overhead passed to you. Owned infrastructure means better pricing for every project size - whether it's a 5-acre RERA plot or a 500km NHAI corridor.
Compliance-Ready First Time
IBM Rule 34A, NHAI, RERA, DGMS, SECI - deliverables pre-structured for the authority that needs them. LiDAR point clouds classified and formatted to project specification before delivery.
One Vendor for Photogrammetry and LiDAR
No need to coordinate two separate survey vendors for different site conditions. We assess your terrain, recommend the right technology, and deliver from one team under one contract.
What a Successful Survey Engagement Looks Like
When survey data arrives on time and in the right format, your entire project runs differently.
