Frequently Asked Questions

We get asked these regularly. Anything else beyond these, you can always ask us.

What is a digital twin?

A digital twin is a precise virtual replica of a physical asset. Built from photogrammetry data, it lets you navigate the asset in three dimensions from a browser, take accurate measurements, annotate conditions, and share access with engineers, consultants, or stakeholders anywhere in the world. Think of it as a permanent, interactive record of your asset exactly as it stood at the time of capture.

What is the difference between RGB and thermal inspection?

RGB inspection uses a standard camera to capture visible defects, cracking, corrosion, spalling, damage. Thermal inspection uses an infrared camera to detect heat signatures invisible to the naked eye, moisture ingress behind walls, insulation failure, electrical hotspots, and delamination under surfaces. The two are often used together on the same flight to give a complete picture of an asset’s condition.

How accurate is a drone survey?

With RTK positioning, drone surveys can achieve centimetre-level accuracy. The exact figure depends on the equipment used, flight parameters, and ground control point setup. We’ll advise on the appropriate accuracy specification for your project.

Do you operate Australia wide?

Yes. We have a variety of talented and skilled operators Australia wide.

Do you only fly drones?

Not at all. Our team comes from a professional photography and videography background. We maintain an extensive arsenal of high-end camera gear and ground-based equipment, allowing us to capture your project from every perspective not just from the air.

Can you operate on weekends, holidays or odd hours?

Yes. We offer flexible scheduling and can operate at any time, subject to availability. Simply reach out to discuss your timeline, and we will do our best to accommodate your project’s needs.

Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it.

Here are what some of our actual clients have to say.

Contact us
  • Genuinely, the Sky Monkey team have been amazing as pilots for us at Wash Drones. Through tricky flying conditions and fantastic advice on what we can/can’t do, I couldn’t recommend them as a partner more highly.
  • Geraldo at Sky Monkey is outstanding. His professionalism, attention to detail, and skill with drone work truly set him apart. The quality of the footage was exceptional, and the entire process was smooth and easy from start to finish. He clearly knows what he’s doing and delivers results you can rely on. I highly recommend Geraldo and Sky Monkey to anyone looking for top-tier drone services.
