DRONE SERVICES

Environmental and Land Management Support

TAG Droneworks delivers advanced drone solutions for farming, forestry, construction, environmental projects, and media production across New Zealand’s lower North Island. Using a specialised fleet of high-performance drones, we provide precise application, accurate data capture, and visually compelling outputs that support smarter decisions and safer operations.

Drones allow for safe, efficient access to challenging environments. We support environmental organisations, land managers, and developers with aerial insights that help protect, restore, and manage land responsibly.

Aerial Mapping & Planning

High-accuracy aerial data for better planning and land management. We use our mapping and inspection drones to capture detailed imagery, assess terrain, and support planning for agricultural, forestry, and environmental projects. This helps clients understand their land, identify issues early, and make informed decisions.

Common outcomes include:

  • Mapping and visual documentation

  • Boundary assessment and planning

  • Basic terrain understanding

  • Environmental or compliance evidence

Deliverables: High-quality stills, mapping imagery, and visual reports.

Precision Spraying & Seeding

Our agricultural operations are led by the XAG P150 - a high-capacity, high-precision application drone designed for serious aerial work. It handles large-scale spraying, granular spreading, and hill-country operations efficiently and safely.

Ideal for:

  • Pasture spraying

  • Targeted herbicide application

  • Re-seeding steep or erosion-prone slopes

  • Orchard and horticultural work

  • Wilding pine / gorse control

With RTK accuracy, terrain-following radar, and intelligent automation, the P150 ensures consistent application across New Zealand’s varied landscapes.

Aerial Mapping & Inspections

We capture high-resolution stills and video for inspection, monitoring, compliance, progress updates, and content creation.

Use cases include:

  • Construction and infrastructure inspections

  • Forestry block monitoring

  • Environmental documentation

  • Pre-/post-work reporting

  • Promotional or operational footage

Deliverables: Still imagery, video footage, and documentation suitable for reporting or communication.
