See more. Know more. Act now.

Fast, accurate and actionable mobile data capture
How it works

From fast data capture to confident decision-making

1. Capture

GX1 and Hovermap scan the environment — ground-based, airborne, or handheld — even where GPS drops out.

2. Process

Emesent Aura turns raw scans into decision-ready point cloud visualizations, powered by Cortex AI.

3. Decide

Teams act on accurate, actionable data and insights. See more, know more, and act now — with confidence.

"Without doubt, the ability of Hovermap to enter areas that are completely inaccessible, capture data, and return to safety - autonomously - opens up new opportunities for mine incident analysis and response."
Matt Mackinnon, Founder and President — Unmanned Aerial Services Inc (UAS)
"A job that we might have been on for 3 or 4 days doing TLS might require 4 or 5 hours of scanning, plus setup time. With Emesent technology, you're on and off site in one day."
John Philipp, Director and Spatial Solutions Manager — Orion Spatial Solutions
"A boom scan could never provide us with the data that Hovermap is able to collect during our monthly reconciliation scanning program. Having the correct visualization makes a huge difference... and with Hovermap you get amazing volume straight off the bat."
Martin Le Grange, Survey Manager Bulyanhulu — Barrick
Hovermap STX is compatible with Freefly Astro Blue & Astro Max Blue (NDAA-compliant platforms)  ·  GX1 is FCC Part 15 Class A & ISED RSS compliant  ·  GX1 & Hovermap are IP65-rated
