DRONE SERVICES
Your Eyes in the Sky
Waypoint Drone Services is a licensed and insured drone company specializing in professional drone services for hunters, landowners, civilians, and first responders. Using state-of-the-art thermal and imaging drones, we combine precision technology with real-world expertise.
Our thermal detection capabilities go far beyond recreation — they provide real support when lives, property, and safety are on the line. Our technology helps law enforcement with aerial awareness, assists search and rescue teams in locating missing persons faster, and gives landowners practical tools to manage their property. By revealing what the human eye can’t, thermal imaging delivers clarity in urgent situations where every second matters.
Thermal Carcass Recovery
Every hunter knows the sinking feeling of a bad shot or losing track of a deer after the moment of truth. It doesn’t just ruin the hunt — it leaves you with a heavy heart and risks wasting an animal you worked so hard to pursue. That’s where we step in. Using thermal imaging drones, we help hunters recover downed game quickly and ethically, so your story ends with respect for the animal and the satisfaction of a completed hunt.
How We Can Help:
-
Quickly locate downed deer, even in thick cover or after dark.
-
Eliminate the frustration and heartbreak of long, uncertain searches.
-
Ensure every hunt ends with ethical recovery and respect for the animal.
-
Give hunters peace of mind, knowing their effort — and the animal’s life — is honored.
Search & Rescue
When someone goes missing or livestock gets loose, time is everything. Searching on foot takes hours, and sometimes that’s time you just don’t have. Our drones give you the ability to cover more ground, see the unseen with thermal imaging, and bring loved ones or animals home faster.
How We Can Help:
-
Support first responders in finding missing people quickly and safely.
-
Track escaped livestock across large or difficult terrain.
-
Cut down search times with wide aerial coverage.
-
Provide real-time visuals to improve decision-making during critical moments.
Law Enforcement Support
When things get critical, law enforcement needs tools they can trust and training they can count on. Drones add a powerful edge — whether it’s keeping eyes on a tactical situation, monitoring large gatherings, surveillance or giving officers the confidence to fly with purpose. At Waypoint, we work side by side with agencies to provide support that’s practical, reliable, and focused on keeping people safe.
How We Can Help:
-
Provide aerial support during tactical operations for better awareness.
-
Monitor large events or gatherings with an added layer of safety.
-
Deliver hands-on drone training designed specifically for law enforcement needs.
-
Build officer confidence in real-world flight operations and mission planning.
Herd Census
A healthy deer herd doesn’t happen by accident — it takes balance, awareness, and the right tools to track it. Through state-of-the-art aerial surveillance, we conduct thorough property surveys to determine your deer population at the time of the survey. Our detailed census provides an accurate count, giving you precise data to ensure long-term herd health.
How We Can Help:
-
Accurately provide total population census
-
Interactive mapping integration with detailed KML file
-
Buck-to-doe ratios to support herd balance and long-term health
-
