You can always tell when a man has lost his soul to flying. The poor bastard is hopelessly committed to stopping whatever he is doing long enough to look up and make sure the aircraft purring overhead continues on course and does not suddenly fall out of the sky. It is also his bound duty to watch every aircraft within view take off and land.

ENVIRONMENTAL & CONSERVATION
Environmental & Conservation Drone Mapping Services
Precision Flight. Purpose-Driven Vision.
At THE FLYING LIZARD, we believe technology can serve both progress and preservation. With decades of aviation experience and advanced drone mapping expertise, we’re bringing our aerial intelligence to the fields of environmental monitoring, ecosystem modeling, and conservation science — helping organizations see, measure, and protect the Earth with new clarity.
Our Environmental Drone Capabilities
1. Environmental Drone Mapping & Modeling
Our fleet captures ultra-high-resolution imagery and thermal data to create detailed orthomosaic maps, 3D terrain models, and digital elevation data — giving environmental teams a precise foundation for decision-making and long-term studies.
Applications include:
-
Land-use and habitat mapping
-
Watershed and erosion analysis
-
Vegetation health monitoring (NDVI/NIR)
-
Carbon offset and reforestation tracking
2. Conservation Drone Services
We help nonprofits, researchers, and environmental agencies collect actionable data safely and efficiently — reducing the need for costly manned flights or on-foot surveys that may disturb sensitive areas.
-
Our conservation services support:
-
Wildlife habitat monitoring
-
Coastal and wetland surveys
-
Deforestation and land restoration mapping
-
Environmental impact assessments
3. Wildlife Monitoring Drones
Our AI-enabled imaging systems detect movement, track migration routes, and map wildlife corridors without intrusion. We work alongside conservationists to develop safe, repeatable missions that protect animals and their environments.
By using quiet flight platforms and optimized routes, we reduce noise pollution and stress on wildlife — ensuring the technology respects the life it observes.
4. Coastal, River, and Wetland Monitoring
From rising shorelines to floodplain changes, our drones deliver precise, geo-referenced data to help track environmental change over time.
Our aerial models support:
-
Flood mitigation planning
-
Coastal erosion monitoring
-
Water quality mapping
-
Wetland restoration and preservation
-
