Services we offer

At True North Aerial, we deliver professional drone solutions that combine precision, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology.
Our services range from agricultural spraying that targets only what needs treatment, to thermal imaging for inspections, search and rescue, and public safety support. We provide real estate aerial marketing, construction progress tracking, mapping and surveying, and environmental monitoring—all with high-resolution visuals and real-time data.

With advanced drones like the DJI Matrice 4T, we capture the big picture and the smallest details—whether that’s tracking a suspect from the sky, scanning a field for crop stress, mapping a large property, or showcasing a home from a breathtaking aerial perspective.

When every angle matters, we’re there to deliver accurate results, safer operations, and stunning imagery.

Agricultural Drone Spraying

Our agricultural spraying drones deliver precision-targeted applications that reduce overspray, minimize waste, and protect your crops. Using GPS-guided flight paths and advanced variable-rate spraying technology, we can apply herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and nutrients only where needed—ensuring an even, thorough, and cost-effective treatment.

  • Benefits: Saves up to 30% in chemical usage, prevents chemical drift into non-target areas, reduces soil compaction by eliminating heavy ground equipment, and allows treatment in wet or inaccessible terrain.

  • Applications: Row crops, orchards, vineyards, pastures, and spot-treatment for invasive weeds.

  • Pricing:

    • Spot Spraying: $8–$12/acre

    • Full Coverage: $10–$15/acre

    • Minimum Job: $200

Drone performing multispectral field scanning for crop health analysis – precision agriculture by TrueNorth Aerial

Multispectral Crop Analysis

Our drones use multispectral and NDVI/NDRE imaging to detect plant stress before it’s visible to the human eye. This allows for early intervention, helping you address pests, disease, nutrient deficiencies, and irrigation issues before they impact yield.

  • Benefits: Maximizes yields by pinpointing problem areas, enables targeted treatment, and supports sustainable farming by reducing unnecessary inputs.

  • Applications: Crop health mapping, growth staging, yield prediction, and replanting decisions.

  • Pricing: $8–$12/acre (includes analysis report and georeferenced maps)
