ZH / Landfills
Landfill monitoring from the air.
Methane across the cover, cover and slope condition, and erosion. Every methane reading comes with its detection limit and the conditions, including wind, flight height and speed.
A Zohardi Station, our customized dock and data center, is a drone dock that lives on site, and its drones fly every day, weather permitting.
001 / What it watches for
Methane across the cover, cover and slope condition, and erosion.
Methane. Gas sensing across the cover, each reading with its detection limit and conditions.
Hot spots. Thermal finds hot spots in landfill covers, and it reads surfaces, not what lies beneath them.
Cover, slope and erosion. Anything we measure, such as maps, elevation and volumes, comes from photogrammetry, and every map states its measured accuracy.
Change since the last flight. Flying the same property from the same dock lines each map up with the last, so a change on the map is a change on the ground.
002 / What you get
Answers in the tools you already use.
Each finding with its evidence. Every finding comes with a photo, its location and how sure it is.
Esri layers and Databricks tables. Results land in Esri ArcGIS and Databricks, as Esri layers, Databricks tables and exports, or through an API. We're an Esri partner and a Databricks partner.
A dated record. Every flight leaves a dated record for your land trust or your insurer.
A living digital twin. Every flight, finding and dataset joins one digital twin of the property, by place and time. Once flights begin, ask it a question in plain language, and it answers with the imagery to back it up.
Your data. You own your data and every output about your properties.
003 / The free pilot
Try Zohardi free for 60 days.
We install the dock, handle the FAA approvals and run every flight. You own your data, and you can stop anytime.
Step 1
Walk the land.
An hour on the phone and a walk of the property to set your priorities and pick a spot for the dock.
Step 2
Fly every day.
Daily flights and on-demand checks, a morning report, and alerts when something changes.
Step 3
Review your numbers.
At day 60 we go over what it caught, what it saved and what it added. Keep going, or we take the dock away and you keep the record.
004 / Questions
Questions about landfills.
What does it watch for on a landfill?
Methane across the cover, cover and slope condition, and erosion.
What comes with each methane reading?
Its detection limit and the conditions, including wind, flight height and speed.
Can thermal see under the cover?
No. Thermal finds hot spots in landfill covers, and it reads surfaces, not what lies beneath them.
Can it measure slopes and volumes?
Yes, from photogrammetry. Anything we measure, such as maps, elevation and volumes, comes from photogrammetry, and every map states its measured accuracy.
Who flies the drones?
We do. We own and operate every dock and aircraft and provide the remote pilots.
