Got solar on your business or building? Winter is when you find out if it's really pulling its weight.

Our thermal drone audit checks your entire array from the air, no roof access needed. It shows you, panel by panel exactly what is underperforming and why.
Hotspots, faulty diodes, dodgy connections, shading losses: all visible, all mapped, all fixable once you can see them.

Book before the worst of the winter underperformance sets in. Serving commercial and industrial sites across Southern Africa.

How multispectral imaging helps South African farmers.

A drone with a multispectral camera can show you where your crop is under stress weeks before you would see it with the naked eye. The technology maps plant health across every metre of your field using near-infrared imaging.

The output is a colour-coded map showing exactly where your crop is:

Under stress from disease, water, or nutrient deficiency
Thriving and performing as expected

Variable rate application based on NDVI maps means you apply inputs where they are needed, not uniformly across the entire field.

Epic Air provides multispectral surveys for:

Vineyards
Orchards
Grain
Commercial agriculture

Across South Africa.

Are you hiring a licensed drone operator?

In South Africa, commercial drone operations require a SACAA Remote Operator Certificate. Without it, your operator is flying illegally, and your business could share the liability.

Epic Air operates under SACAA ROC Nr G1336D. Fully licensed, fully insured, and compliant with all RPAS regulations under Part 101.

Before you engage any drone service provider for inspection, surveying, or aerial photography, ask for their ROC number.

Not sure what to look for? We are happy to guide you through the procurement process at no cost.

Not sure whether your project needs LiDAR or photogrammetry? Here's the simple way to think about it. 👇

If the surface you need to measure is open and visible from above, mine sites, stockpile volumes, construction progress, solar farms, photogrammetry does the job brilliantly. It uses overlapping photos to build accurate 3D geometry.

If you're dealing with vegetation, tree canopy, pipeline corridors, or terrain that's hidden from view, LiDAR is the answer. Laser pulses cut through gaps in cover and capture what a camera simply can't see.

Open site = photogrammetry.
Hidden terrain = LiDAR.

Epic Air operates both, so the recommendation always comes down to your site, your required output, and the accuracy you need.

Some flights are wild. Others are 120 metres up, deep inside a wind farm, or across the scale of an open mine.

That's where aerial work proves its value.

Epic Air provides licensed drone services across South Africa. Cinematography, inspections, aerial surveys, thermal imaging, LiDAR mapping, and asset documentation. From remote coastlines to industrial sites, we fly the angles most ground teams can't reach.

Fully SACAA-licensed (ROC Nr G1336D). Fully insured. Clients include Vestas, Glencore, Transnet, Sola Group, and AfriSam.

If you manage infrastructure, assets, or land anywhere in South Africa, let's talk.

Aerial surveying for South Africa's mining sector.

Most mine survey teams still send people on foot across stockpiles, hours of manual measurement, real safety risk, and accuracy that rarely gets below a few percentage points.

We do it differently.

Epic Air has completed drone photogrammetry surveys for Glencore and AfriSam, two of South Africa's most demanding mining and materials operations. Our surveys produce georeferenced 3D models and volumetric calculations accurate to within 1 to 3%, delivered in standard mine planning software formats.

Full site flight time: under 2 hours.
Volumetric accuracy: 1 to 3%.
Personnel on the stockpile: zero.

If you manage a mine, quarry, or bulk materials operation in South Africa and your quarterly survey process is slower or more expensive than it should be, it is worth a conversation.

Every underperforming panel on your solar farm is costing you output that you will never recover. The problem is, ground inspections miss most of them.

Epic Air uses thermal drone technology to scan your entire array in hours, pinpointing exactly where yield is being lost. You get a full inspection report with actionable findings, not just a flyover.

Trusted by solar operators across the Western and Northern Cape. Zero workers on the array. 100% panel coverage. Results the same day.
