Aerial Works · Weed Surveying
Find it. Map it. Treat it.
Helicopter-based weed surveying and eradication for country that's too big, too rough or too remote to walk. We map your infestations by GPS, spot-spray the ones that matter, and hand back a record you can show a board, a council or an auditor.

Weeds don't respect a fence line
Across the roadless properties of Cape York, the worst infestations sit exactly where no vehicle can get — creek lines, gorges, flood-out country and locked-up back paddocks. A helicopter reaches all of it, maps what's really out there, and treats it without cutting a single track.
How we cover the country
Low, slow and gridded
We fly the property in a measured grid — low and slow — GPS-tagging every infestation as we go. The result is a true, mapped picture of what's growing where, how bad it is, and what to prioritise.
- Parkinsonia, prickly pear, sicklepod and other declared weeds
- Creek lines, gorges, flood-out country and locked-up back paddocks
- Targeted spot-spraying of outliers; broadcast work on dense stands
- Maps, treated areas and chemical records for compliance
What we target
The weeds we're after
The declared weeds that hit northern grazing country hardest — here's what to look for, and what we hunt from the air.
…and other declared weeds — tell us what's on the block and we'll target it.
On the ground · timing is everything
Catch it green, or not at all
The same weed — sicklepod — at three stages. While it's green it sprays out and dies. Once it yellows off and sets seed, the damage is already done.
How it works
Four steps, every job
Whether it's one paddock or a whole pastoral lease, the work runs the same way.
Brief & plan
We sit down over the map — target weeds, priority paddocks, no-spray zones, water points and access.
Aerial survey
Fly the country low and slow, GPS-tagging every infestation and building a mapped picture of what's out there.
Targeted spray
Return to the flagged sites and apply herbicide from the air — spot-spraying outliers, working the dense stands.
Record & review
You get maps, treated areas, chemical records and a follow-up plan — ready for compliance or next season.
Capabilities
What we bring to the job
GPS weed mapping
Every infestation logged with a point and a severity rating — a true picture of what's on the block.
Targeted spot spraying
Scattered plants and outliers treated individually — minimal chemical, minimal off-target.
Dense infestation work
Broadcast application across thickets and heavy stands along creeks and flood-out country.
Hard-to-reach terrain
Gorges, gullies, riverbanks and locked-up paddocks treated without cutting a single track.
Treatment reporting
Maps, treated areas and chemical records packaged for boards, councils and auditors.
Compliance records
Documentation that stands up against biosecurity obligations and land-management plans.
