Advanced Aerial Forestry Services

---

Sky Terra delivers comprehensive forestry services using advanced aerial drone and lift-capable systems — ideal for rugged terrain, steep slopes and sensitive forest environments. Whether you need spraying, seeding, baiting, mapping or aerial lift delivery, we offer a versatile, efficient and safe platform.

We use digital mapping and terrain-aware flight planning to apply sprays, seed or other materials exactly where required — whether for understorey weed control, pest management, re-seeding, regeneration support, or site preparation after harvest. This ensures accuracy around waterways, boundaries, native vegetation and high-value timber stands. 

For forestry tasks requiring material delivery — such as seed bags, fertiliser, bait, tools, or small equipment to remote or steep-access zones — our lift-capable drones and VTOL platforms provide a safe, efficient alternative to ground transport or heavy machinery. Aerial lift avoids the risk and environmental damage associated with vehicle access or manual carrying in steep, dense, or fragile terrain. This capability is particularly valuable in plantation maintenance, remote regeneration zones, or sites where ground access is restricted or hazardous.

Forestry sites often include steep gullies, unstable slopes, dense bush or thick undergrowth. Our aerial platform navigates above these hazards, delivering precise applications or material drops without disturbing soil or vegetation — and avoiding the safety risk to crews or damage that ground machinery can cause. Drones and VTOL aircraft are well-suited for forestry because they combine payload capacity with agility and stability in challenging terrain.

Since aerial operations hover above ground, there’s no soil compaction, no ruts or disturbance to undergrowth, and minimal disruption to wildlife habitat. This makes aerial spraying, seeding or lift operations especially useful in native forest regeneration, reforestation zones, or conservation-sensitive areas — while still delivering the precision of modern forestry management. 

Beyond applications and delivery, our drones can perform forest inventory tasks: capturing high-resolution aerial imagery, biomass or canopy analysis, health assessment, stand mapping, regeneration monitoring and post-treatment surveys. This data-driven approach supports better planning, sustainable forestry management and future growth forecasting. 

Every forestry job – whether spraying, lift delivery or mapping – comes with a full digital log: flight path, application/drop zones, rate or load details, coverage area, and mission summary. This ensures full traceability for compliance, environmental reporting, agronomy review or regeneration tracking.
