Drone Hire Australia Group — CASA Certified Operators

Who we are

Drone Hire Australia Group (DHA) delivers advanced aerial, crawler, and survey solutions across Australia. We’re CASA-certified operators focused on safe, efficient workflows that produce accurate, actionable data for critical assets and infrastructure.

What we do

• Telecommunications – Line-of-sight (LOS) surveys, tower inspections, 3D digital twins, and reporting to optimise network performance.
• Government Departments – Infrastructure mapping, land surveys, and environmental monitoring with high-resolution deliverables.
• Oil & Gas – Safe, efficient inspections of tanks, pipelines, flare stacks, and confined spaces with compliance-ready reports.
• Wind Turbines – External blade inspections and advanced internal blade inspections using crawler technology.
• General Asset Inspections – Bridges, buildings, and other critical infrastructure using UAV and crawler platforms.
• LiDAR & Mapping – LiDAR, photogrammetry, and precision ground control for engineering-grade accuracy.
• Large-Volume Programs – Scalable teams and processes for multi-site, high-throughput data capture.

Crawler inspections

Where traditional drone access is limited, our crawler systems provide high-definition internal inspections for blades, pipelines, tanks, and other confined assets—improving safety, reducing outages, and revealing defects that are otherwise hard to detect.

Survey crew

Our survey crews support LiDAR and photogrammetry missions with accurate ground control, check shots, and QA workflows. We integrate survey-grade positioning and documented methods to meet engineering and compliance standards.

How we work

• Safety & Compliance – CASA-certified operations aligned with CASR Part 101 and robust SMS procedures.
• Data Quality – Repeatable capture plans, calibrated sensors, and documented QA/QC.
• Speed to Value – Rapid mobilisation, efficient flight plans, and clear reporting to accelerate decisions.
• Integration – Deliverables formatted for your stakeholders and systems (GIS, BIM, asset portals).
