Golf course drone survey packages

We turn your course into data your team can act on — where water and chemicals are wasted, which greens are shade-starved, where turf is running hot and dry, and what a renovation will touch. It’s the data behind tighter budgets, smarter planning, and better conditions. Looking for the software the crew runs the course on? See Cortex.

Water waste, shade-limited greens & hot, dry turf.

You can’t budget what you can’t see. We map the whole course.

The Aetheris approach
What you run the course on

Built for the people who run the course.

Three deliverables that turn your property into decisions — what to spend, where to fix, and how to plan — each built from the same survey.

›Conditions ReportThe analytics readout of your course: acreage by turf type and feature, drainage and wet-area maps, sun-hours per green, and thermal maps of where turf runs hot and dry. The numbers that set your seed, fertilizer, water, and tree-work budgets.
›Course BlueprintsLarge-format, georeferenced course plan sheets, delivered in print and CAD-ready vector (DWG/DXF). The working reference for agronomy, renovation, irrigation, and contractor/architect handoff.
›Living DataYour course kept current: annual or seasonal recaptures with year-over-year and seasonal change detection — recovery after a project, drainage after a wet season, canopy growth, and where turf is running hot and dry.

Aerial maps and measurements are approximate and for planning — not a boundary survey or legal area certification.

Conditions Report — data analytics dashboard

The course distilled into the numbers that drive agronomy, budgeting, and renovation — acreage, drainage, sun-hours, and where turf runs hot and dry, in one readout.

Representative deliverables. Approximate — not a boundary survey.

One survey. Choose how you keep it.

Par for the Course is a one-off; Birdie and Eagle keep it current season after season — our Living Data program. Scoped and quoted per course.
