Save thousands every year if you rely on ongoing aerial data. We install, run, and manage drone docks at your site or anywhere else you need them. Once the dock is set up, you never have to think about scheduling again.
Provide information about your site and needs and our team will determine if a dock is your best option. We're committed to being solutions-focused. Repeatable, frequent drone missions are what qualifies a need for a dock.
Raad technicians install your dock safely and securely. Raad Mission Ops pre-programs your dock to get you the data you need.
Raad Mission Ops continuously monitors your dock to make sure we're capturing the data that's truly useful to you. Visit your client portal to retrieve your data.
With regular aerial capture, your team is caught up in scheduling, negotiating, planning and acquiring the data. Oftentimes the aerial data capture gets to be such a big necessity that you're forced to hire a full-time employee or fork over thousands to multiple subcontractors.
Lean on Raad. Raad Mission Ops will help you understand what data is useful to you; we'll plan, install, capture, process and deliver this data in a format that is easily used by your team. Take the guesswork out of drone ops and focus on your industry.
WHERE DRONE DOCKS MAKE SENSE
We've used docks for things like substation flyovers, line inspections, and wind turbine checks. What used to take a full crew and a truck now happens on a set schedule, automatically. The data's consistent, and it's all done without needing someone on-site.
Sites change daily. Having a dock in place means we can fly early each morning, process the data, and send it out before most people get to the job. It keeps everyone in sync and helps spot problems before they turn into delays.
We set up docks at refineries and other industrial sites where safety is a concern and access isn't always easy. Routine monitoring happens without interrupting operations, and the data gets logged the same way every time — no surprises.
We've worked with logistics teams that were tired of walking yards with clipboards. With a dock, flights run automatically to check vehicle flow, container placement, or gate traffic. It gives them a real-time picture of what's happening on the ground.
Some clients use docks to run the same perimeter route every night. Others keep one in place for fast-response checks when an alarm goes off. Either way, it's faster than calling in someone to go check it out manually.
Farms benefit from routine scans — crop health, water patterns, even herd tracking. Docks make it easy. Once the setup's done, flights happen on schedule and we handle the rest. The grower just gets results.
After a hurricane, fire, or flood, response time matters. We've flown docks that were already installed — no need to wait for a team to get on-site. The aerials help determine what roads are open, what areas need help first, and where to send resources.
City planners and inspectors use docks to keep track of work zones, document ongoing projects, and support zoning or code enforcement. It's one of the easiest ways to keep a clean visual record without tying up staff.
THE VALUE OF A RAAD DOCK
You don't need to send someone out every time a site needs eyes on it. Once the dock's in, flights run on their own. You stop spending on travel, time, and repeat labor just to get a basic visual.
When the same route gets flown on a schedule, you start to see things earlier: leaks, stress, damage, slow progress. Fixing it early costs less. Missing it gets expensive fast.
We handle the flying, the footage, and the cleanup. Your team stays focused on what they were hired to do. No one's getting pulled off task to babysit drones or dig through footage.
Whether it's a high voltage area or just bad terrain, there's no need to send someone into it if a dock's already there. We fly it, and your team stays out of harm's way.
If the site changes daily, the data should too. Regular flights give you a way to see what's going on and catch anything that could throw the schedule off. It's about staying ahead, not reacting late.
Same flight path. Same camera angle. Same lighting. That kind of consistency makes it easy to compare over time and spot real changes, not just one-off mistakes.
With docks in place, you can check in without showing up. The footage is recent, the quality's good, and you can get a read on the situation from wherever you are.
Stop managing drone operations and start focusing on your core business. Let Raad handle everything from installation to data delivery with our automated dock solutions.
