Relentless attention to detail is present in every piece of our work at AirMac Aerial Imaging. 

     AirMac Aerial Imaging is a Texoma-based aerial mapping and documentation company specializing in infrastructure, construction, and rural water utility environments.

     Using enterprise aerial platforms and structured photogrammetry workflows, AirMac provides orthomosaic maps, terrain and elevation models, infrastructure documentation, and operational imagery that help project teams clearly understand site conditions and track change over time.

     AirMac’s work most commonly supports construction projects, rural water systems, and infrastructure operators that require reliable aerial visibility of their facilities and operations. AirMac focuses on documenting infrastructure and operational environments where aerial visibility provides meaningful insight for engineers, operators, and project teams.

AirMac operates with a team of FAA-licensed pilots and imaging specialists with backgrounds in aviation, infrastructure operations, and emergency response environments.

Our Aerial Team

Jon is AMAI's primary pilot and mission PIC. Jon leads AirMac’s aerial mapping and photogrammetry operations, focusing on terrain modeling, infrastructure documentation, and construction site visibility. Jon began his aerial imaging journey as a fixed wing aerial inspection pilot in the oil and gas industry and over the years, fell in love with the detail and endless options provided by sUAS aircraft (drones). Jon holds FAA Part 61 Commerical Pilot, Instrument, Certified Flight Instructor Airplane Licenses and an FAA Part 107 Commercial sUAS Pilot's License. Jon holds US Security Clearance credentials for operations in/over high-security federally-controlled waterways, facilities, refineries and vessels.

Our Deliverables

Digital Fulfillment Options

AirMac Aerial Imaging delivers our product in a host of formats and media storage devices. Most commonly, digital files are provided on USB readable devices or Cloud storage.

All of the digital footage and stills captured for clients belongs to the client commissioning the session(s). 

Orthomosaic and Photogrammety Layers
AirMac produces Esri-compliant (ArcGIS) and Google Earth 3D compliant layers along with high-resolution and elevation-encoded outputs along with geotagging with Lat/Lon data as requested with Photogrammetry missions. The majority of AirMac orthomosaic mapping, including terrain modeling and infrastructure inspection imaging data, is delivered via AirMac's web portal. 

For more information about AirMac's Orthomosaics, see
our categorial services summary in our Services/Services-Categories-Orthomosaics area. 
    
Time/Date/Altitude Geotagging Files for Aerial Videos
We capture time, date, altitude and lat/lon data in realtime with all aerial video we produce and can provide a separate file to clients which can be combined (and layered) with the video for documentation and/or forensics. This file can be viewed as a Closed Caption file on screen simultaneously with the video and toggled on and off as desired by the client.
