Capabilities
Grounded in environmental science and elevated by aerial technology, Gaia Aerial Imagery provides a unique vantage point on the beauty and chaos of our shifting planet. I bridge the gap between rigorous ecological data and compelling visual narratives, offering specialized capabilities that range from high-precision coastal mapping to ethical wildlife documentation—delivering insights that are as scientifically sound as they are stunning.
Coastal Dynamics and Change
Shoreline and Climate Change Mapping
Track shoreline migration, dune and bluff dynamics, and storm impacts through longitudinal monitoring. Utilizing high‑resolution orthomosaics and digital elevation models (DEMs), I provide the visual and spatial data necessary to quantify coastal erosion and climate-driven transformation.
Ecological Assessment
Habitat Analysis
Non-intrusive data collection across wetlands, estuaries, salt marshes, and other vulnerable ecosystems. I provide high-fidelity aerial surveys to support ecological field studies, habitat health assessments, and environmental impact reporting for academic and professional researchers, and municipal agencies. These insights assist in the management of protected lands and provide critical documentation for long-term conservation planning and regulatory compliance.
Conservation Storytelling
Aerial Photography and Video
Professional-grade imagery designed for conservation outreach, grant proposals, and public education. I deliver high-resolution stills and 4K cinematic video that translate complex ecological data into story-driven visuals, bridging the gap between scientific findings and public engagement.
Biodiversity Surveys
Marine and Avian Monitoring
Specialized aerial observation of migratory species, nesting colonies, and marine megafauna. Leveraging a background in wildlife management, I support the collection of non-intrusive census data and behavioral documentation. By following strict ethical flight protocols, I capture information on vulnerable species to support conservation efforts and population studies.
