The Future of Aerial Intelligence

At Mapware, we are redefining aerial intelligence by providing secure, innovative, and customer-driven solutions. From defense and public safety to critical infrastructure and commercial applications, we empower organizations with state-of-the-art Unmanned Aerial Solutions (UAS) and crewed aerial systems that maximize operational efficiency and data-driven decision-making. 

Our Mission

Mapware’s mission is to empower organizations to capture, process, and leverage drone data swiftly and securely, turning complex challenges into actionable insights. We combine cutting-edge technology, agile integration, and a customer-first focus to enable businesses across diverse industries to scale faster, operate smarter, and stay ahead in an ever-evolving landscape. 

Our Process

We collect data using RGB, LiDAR, multispectral, hyperspectral, thermal, or streaming video sensors.
Mapware uses this data to generate highly detailed interactive 3D models, orthoimage maps, and support AI/ML-powered analytics. Our learning technologies, built on advanced computer vision models, provide deeper insights that enable government and commercial partners to make faster, more informed decisions with fewer resources.

Hardware

At the heart of our operations are our custom-built drones, designed to perform in challenging environments and large landscape areas. Built with NDAA-compliant, US manufactured hardware, our drones collect and transform imagery into actionable information.

Services

Our in-house expert pilots source all cameras, sensors, and create optimized flight plans to capture the best data, even in the most difficult conditions. We create tailored solutions to help you detect and compare important elements of your environment.

Software

Mapware ingests, cleans and processes the aerial data in our AI-powered photogrammetry software platform, creating highly accurate maps that you can share, interact with, and explore.

  • Orthomosaics: How to Produce High-Quality Orthomosaic Maps

    For many applications, normal aerial photos don’t provide the level of accuracy required for measurement and comparison because of the distortion of the lens angle and other factors. Using orthomosaics allows you to get a more accurate representation of the area you are studying. What is an orthophoto? An orthophoto is an aerial image that has been…

  • Photogrammetry vs LiDAR Remote Sensing

    As remote sensing technology continues to develop and improve, we’re seeing more potential uses and opportunities to create value in new industries and fields of study, from environmental science to public safety to telecommunications. Several different remote sensing methods are available today, and each one comes with strengths and limitations. Some will be well-suited for…

  • Drone Soil Analysis: Multispectral Remote Sensing for Soil Mapping

    Maintaining healthy and productive farmland is no easy task. It requires the knowledge of different care and conditioning practices that have been honed over thousands of years.  In recent years, natural fertilizers have been replaced with synthetic nutrients in many places—a choice that allows farmers to make advanced land management decisions to maximize yields. However,…
