d into every frame for synchronous data
Better photos create better models
Photogrammetry | Digital Twins
Using sophisticated algorithms, Skyfish extracts the exact, minute, detailed features from thousands of photos, correlates and triangulates these features, then warps and stitches the photos seamlessly into high fidelity 3D reality models. Skyfish offers a fully integrated online portal (Skyportal) for customers to view the digital twins.
The result is an exact life-like replication, or “digital twin” of the target infrastructure. The 3D model is so detailed you can measure the thickness of steel, measure a cotter pin in a bolt, or the length of a cable to sub-centimeter accuracy inside the model.
Longer battery life
Flies Longer
Complex missions can be accomplished with fewer battery changes in the field. Osprey can be configured to fly for up to 30 minutes (45 minutes expected in early 2026), depending on the battery selected. The radio range is 3 miles.
QGroundControl
Ground Remote Control
Skyfish has customized QGroundControl for flight navigation and integrated it with our proprietary ground control station. The Talon remote controller runs on the same NVIDIA processor as the Skyfish Osprey drone, ensuring seamless interoperability, fewer parts, and simplified maintenance. Our custom-designed PCB removes tablet limitations, maximizes processing power, and provides the flexibility to meet specific customer requirements.
Geotagging every frame
Best in Class Location Accuracy
Best-in-class location accuracy The Skyfish platform has amazing location accuracy with an automated geotagging process that is frame synchronous. We inject highly accurate data into every still frame on the Sony LR1. The Osprey also uses an onboard RTK GPS solution with a stand-alone RTK Base Station (optional). The base-station is survey grade, and can act as a relay to increase the range as required.
American Made
Made in the USA and NDAA compliant
Based in Missoula, MT, Skyfish designs drones, battery systems, airborne guidance, and ground control stations, which provide real-time video and telemetry feeds from the aircraft – all in house, for the past 12 years. Skyfish is fully made in the USA and is NDAA compliant.
