Industrial Intelligence Platform

The industrial world runs on measurement.
We measure it from above.

Flybi is the aerial intelligence platform for mining, steel, thermal, and defence. We turn drone-captured sensor data into decisions — from ore-body detection to monthly stockpile audits — with engineering-grade accuracy and 48-hour turnarounds.

Two flagship products

Measurement and exploration, engineered as software.

We operate two production-grade intelligence products — each solving a billion-rupee industrial problem. Both run on the same data pipeline, the same accuracy guarantees, the same reporting discipline.

01 · AeroMagnetic Intelligence

See through the ground, without drilling it.

Drone-borne magnetic surveys at terrain-following altitudes reveal subsurface structure — ore bodies, dykes, basement depth, magnetic lineaments — before a single borehole is sunk. We compress an exploration cycle that used to take months into weeks, and cost-per-square-kilometre by an order of magnitude.

Output & deliverables

  • Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) grid — sub-nT resolution
  • Reduced-to-Pole, analytic signal, first vertical derivative
  • Depth-to-basement & Euler deconvolution
  • Structural lineament map with geological interpretation
  • Target ranking memo for drill prioritization

02 · Stockpile Intelligence

Close the books on what you’re sitting on.

Monthly stockpile audits for thermal plants, steel mills, and mining operations. A 500-acre yard gets captured, processed, and reconciled in under 48 hours — with ±1.5% variance against weighbridge data. Finance stops accepting "broadly estimated" closing inventory. Operations stops flying blind on coal & ore stock.

Output & deliverables

  • Digital Surface Model (DSM) & Digital Terrain Model (DTM)
  • Per-pile volumetric report — cubic metres & tonnage
  • Month-on-month variance & movement analytics
  • Historical baseline for shrinkage / pilferage detection
  • Audit-grade PDF + signed CSV for finance close

Supporting services

Four adjacent offerings, same engineering rigour.

Around our two flagships, we run a focused portfolio of industrial drone services — each built for clients who already trust us with the pipeline.

Inspection

Structural Inspection

Chimney stacks, cooling towers, transmission assets — scanned from a drone, with RGB + thermal overlays, defect-classified, rendered audit-ready.

Environment

Air Quality Monitoring

Drone-mounted sensor array samples plume dispersion at stack heights. Isopleth maps and time-series for compliance teams and CPCB submissions.

See scope

Mining

Mining Digitization

Weekly overflight of open-cast pits. Bench volumes, stockpile reconciliation, haul-road condition, slope stability flags — all pushed to your dashboard.

The pipeline

From sensor to decision, in four controlled stages.

Every Flybi deliverable moves through the same hardened pipeline. No ad-hoc workflows. No project-by-project improvisation. Accuracy is a property of the system, not the operator.

Capture

Calibrated drones on pre-planned flight lines. GCP-anchored missions with centimetre-level RTK where accuracy demands it. Sensor stack chosen per job — RGB, magnetometer, LiDAR, thermal.

Process

Photogrammetric and geophysical pipelines run on a hardened stack. Every deliverable is version-controlled, reproducible, and stamped with sensor + flight metadata for audit.

Analyze

AI-assisted feature extraction, volumetrics, anomaly detection, change-over-time. Quality-checked against weighbridge, borehole, or survey control — never shipped until it reconciles.

Decide

Delivered as the artifact your team actually uses: CFO-grade audit PDF, exploration target memo, operations dashboard, or API feed into your ERP / GIS. Not a data dump.

Why Flybi

Built like a platform. Operated like an engineering firm.

Most "drone companies" are services shops dressed up. Flybi is an engineering platform with a compounding data moat — one that gets more accurate, faster, and cheaper to deploy with every site we measure.

/01

Engineering-grade accuracy

Every deliverable is reconciled against an independent ground truth. No "good enough" outputs.

/02

48-hour turnaround

Mobilization to verified report in under 48 hours on standard deployments. Monthly audits run on a calendar, not a request.

/03

Scalable by design

Same pipeline runs on a 5-acre yard or a 500 km² exploration block. We add geography without adding process overhead.

/04

Historical data intelligence

Every site we measure feeds a compounding baseline. Month-over-month, year-over-year change detection becomes a first-class output.

/05

Enterprise integration

API handoff to ERP, GIS, SAP, or custom finance systems. Reports land where your team already works — not in a separate portal.

/06

Regulatory & DGCA-aligned

Type-certified platforms, licenced remote pilots, operation-specific permissions. No grey-zone flying on enterprise sites.

Selected work

Production deployments. Verified outputs.

Weighbridge variance

Monthly stockpile audit for an integrated steel plant.

Flybi replaced manual rope-and-tape surveys with drone photogrammetric audits run on a fixed monthly calendar. Finance now closes the month on verified tonnage. Operations holds variance accountable to a single, defensible number.

Aeromagnetic survey for mineral targeting, East Africa.

Drone-borne magnetometer survey over a greenfield exploration block, delivering TMI, analytic signal, depth-to-basement, and a ranked set of drill targets — at a fraction of the cost and timeline of fixed-wing alternatives.

Active deployments

Coal stockpile measurement for thermal power generation.

Coal inventory on thermal plants is a material line item that drives PLF, fuel-cost reconciliation, and statutory reporting. Flybi ran the full audit cycle end-to-end at KPCL’s Raichur and Ballari thermal stations.

Technology

AI, geospatial systems, and drone hardware — composed into one platform.

We don’t sell a drone. We sell the integrated stack that turns sensor captures into industrial decisions.

01

Sensor stack

RGB, LiDAR, magnetometer, multispectral, thermal — deployed on type-certified platforms. Selected per job, not per preference.

02

Geospatial pipeline

Hardened photogrammetric, geophysical, and point-cloud pipelines. Reproducible, versioned, metadata-stamped. Zero ad-hoc processing.

03

AI analytics layer

Change detection, feature extraction, anomaly scoring, volumetric reconciliation. Built on proprietary ground-truth datasets.

Answers

What engineers, CFOs, and exploration leads ask us first.

What is stockpile volume measurement?
Stockpile volume measurement is the precision calculation of bulk-material tonnage using aerial photogrammetry or LiDAR. A calibrated drone captures overlapping imagery of the pile; processing produces a digital surface model, which — combined with a reference base plane — yields volume to sub-2% accuracy. Flybi delivers this as a verified, audit-grade report within 48 hours of mobilization.
What is an aeromagnetic survey, and when do I need one?
Aeromagnetic surveys measure variations in the Earth’s magnetic field from a low-altitude airborne platform. They reveal subsurface geology — ore bodies, structural trends, intrusives, basement depth — without drilling. Use them early in the exploration cycle to de-risk drilling spend, generate drill targets, and map structural context over large blocks cheaply and quickly.
How accurate are drone-based stockpile measurements?
With ground control points and calibrated cameras, drone volumetrics achieve ±1% to ±2% accuracy versus weighbridge totals. That’s materially better than manual surveys and comparable to terrestrial laser scanning at a fraction of the cost and time. Flybi audits every deployment against weighbridge or truck-count data, and publishes the reconciliation inside the report.
Is Flybi just a drone services company?
No. Flybi operates a vertically-integrated intelligence platform — from sensor capture through AI analytics to enterprise delivery. The drone is one component; our value is in the pipeline, the accuracy guarantees, and the compounding dataset. Services companies ship rasters. We ship decisions.
How quickly can Flybi mobilize to a new site?
For sites in India: typically 3–7 days from scoping call to on-site capture, with verified reports delivered 48 hours after capture. International deployments (East Africa, Southeast Asia) follow a defined mobilization plan with a fixed timeline published in the engagement letter.
Do you work with government or defence clients?
Flybi is positioned for government, PSU, and defence-adjacent engagements, with explicit interest in counter-UAS and ISR-class programmes. Engagements follow regulated procurement pathways. Contact us through the secure channel for sensitive programmes.
