Visual Aerial Survey and Mapping

One of the most regular tasks performed by Heli Surveys is survey and mapping. Using the latest technology, GPS-interfaced mapping systems and standard aerial survey equipment (transect bars), accurate maps and/or population estimates of anything from weeds to wild horses can be achieved. Additionally, using a sophisticated radio telemetry tracking system, radio collared animals including pigs, wild dogs, goats and spotted-tail quolls can be successfully tracked and located.

We view land management as a primary role of our business. As such, our knowledge and dedication to the environment is evident in our regular customer base, who range from private companies to universities and government land management agencies.


Aerial Crane and Sling Load

Without question, one of the greatest capabilities of helicopters is their ability to move things quickly, efficiently and safely when there simply is no other option. We regularly lift a wide variety of loads - anything from tower building or relocating building materials, gravel and fencing into remote locations to stock feed and sand bags in flood effected areas.

Heli Surveys has extensive experience in high precision aerial crane operations in the alpine environment, operating safely and effectively at high altitudes is what we do best.
