Global UAV Technologies Ltd., a diversified and vertically integrated drone technology company, recently completed a drone-based geothermal energy exploration survey for Borealis GeoPower Inc. The survey is the first of its kind for Global UAV utilizing both geophysical and thermal imaging sensors over an area in northern British Columbia.
Global UAV's wholly owned subsidiary, Pioneer Aerial Surveys Ltd., collaborated with Hummingbird Drones Inc. to collect and analyze high resolution magnetometer and thermal data over the 2200 Ha survey area. The survey was conducted using both day and night flight operations to maximize efficiency and data quality. The combination of UAV-MAG™ and drone-based thermal imagery produced high-resolution deliverables on the geological and geothermal features of the survey area for our client, Borealis GeoPower Inc.
"The collaborative spirit brought by Pioneer Aerial was instrumental in successfully carrying out the work at the (Lakelse Geothermal
Project) Terrace, BC geothermal project. Near the location of one of the world's largest hot springs, Borealis is currently refining its reservoir model in advance of drilling in 2019. Geothermal power and heat are renewable energies well positioned to support the local and national economy as well as the environment," stated Alison Thompson, CEO of Borealis GeoPower Inc.
