“After acquiring
approval for
10 site-specific
applications, we
were able to apply
for an Ontario-wide
license. That was a
huge breakthrough
for us.”
– Daniel Matzeg
and Feld were first getting their venture
off the ground.
“Sometimes people would say,
‘We’ve done things the traditional way
forever and we’re going to keep doing
it that way,’ and you can’t change their
minds and that’s fine,” he said. “Now
a lot of people are really pushing for
drones. They’re saying drones are
the wave of the future, they want to
use them. Once they bring them on a
project…they really see the benefits of
using them.”
One of the biggest benefits of using
drones, according to Matzeg, is the
amount of man hours a company can
save. With traditional technology, a
surveyor must go out and physically
put a target on every single pile and
often must contend with obstructions
and moving equipment. Those logistical
challenges are suddenly removed
from the equation with a drone.
“We come in and we don’t even
have to be on the actual site. The drone
flies over … and then we go back on
our computer and run an analysis.
