Precision Driven Asset Intelligence & Digital Twins

Based in Brisbane, Hover Aerial Imaging delivers survey-grade drone photogrammetry and forensic-level asset inspections across Australia. Utilising CASA-licensed workflows, we transform critical infrastructure into measurable 3D digital twins and BIM-ready datasets, providing a high-precision ‘single source of truth’ for the entire asset lifecycle

Photogrammetry & Digital Twins

Survey-grade RTK photogrammetry generating high-fidelity 3D digital twins to LOD 400 specification.
Centimetre-accurate point clouds, 3D meshes, and digital elevation models — built for direct BIM and
CAD integration.

Photogrammetry & Digital Twins

Visual Inspections

Close Visual Inspection (CVI) replacing rope access, scaffolding, and EWPs on bridges, towers, dams, and high-risk vertical assets. Sub-millimetre imagery captured from safe ground positions.

Visual Inspections

Photography & Videography

4K aerial photography and cinematic videography for construction progress reporting, government tenders, and stakeholder updates. Repeatable monthly capture from fixed waypoints for verifiable change-detection records.

AI Powered Defect Detection

Drone-captured imagery resolving structural anomalies and surface fractures down to 0.2 millimetres.
Every defect is geolocated onto a 3D mesh, providing a data-driven map for prioritised remediation and
longitudinal asset tracking.

Site Surveys

Engineering and pre-design topographic surveys delivering RTK-accurate point clouds, contours, DTM/DEM, and orthomosaics for civil project tenders, planning, and CAD integration.

Site Surveys

Volumetric Mapping

Survey-grade calculations for stockpiles, cut-and-fill earthworks, and end-of-month reconciliation reporting. Captured concurrently with site operations — no shutdowns, no machinery interference.
