Research and Surveillance

  • Remote Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS)

    With qualified pilots and standard operating procedures inline with Transport Canada’s aviation regulations, Sharpstone Conservation deploys drones to aid in locating wildlife and invasive terrestrial species. Our operations team employs drones for monitoring specific specimens, and to assist in targeting during wildlife management or eradication programs.

  • Tracking and Remote Observation

    Our management is composed of leaders who have navigated some of the world’s harshest environments. Bringing this knowledge and skillset to wildlife management enables our team to confidently and safely navigate remote regions.

  • Wildlife Surveillance

    With a wide range of optics and imagery collection techniques, we can capture wildlife patterns and behaviors. Being able to deploy these systems in all conditions aids in their effectiveness. Thermal optics, auto-capture, and high resolutions aerial imagery are among the list of our surveillance technologies.

  • Collaring and Telemetry

    With a skilled field team, Sharpstone can assist is specimen tracking projects. Triangulation and VHF applications merged with RPAS operations render superior data collection. Our team can conduct projects in remote and unforgiving terrain.
