Lake Pulse’s Aerial Vegetation Mapping Service uses high-resolution drones equipped with visible and near-infrared (NIR) imaging to map aquatic plant growth with precision. These surveys can distinguish between native and invasive species—like milfoil, hydrilla, and lily pads—and provide detailed data on extent, density, and seasonal trends. This supports more effective planning, treatment, and long-term ecological management of your lake. *** Why does this say it costs $50? To ensure your drone mission delivers exactly what you need, we require a brief scoping call before scheduling. This call is set at a nominal $50 fee — not as a cost, but as a signal of commitment and to save you both time and money in the long run. Flying a drone mission over your lake involves important upfront considerations: 1) FCC-approved flight plans, 2) Mission size and scope. 3) Specific objectives and data requirements. A short alignment call allows us to clarify these details upfront, streamline the planning process, and avoid unnecessary costs or delays.
