What's new:

Recently we launched a massive drone show based on new platform. Meet Geoscan Salute - small quadcopter, designed exclusively for group flights and light shows.

The development started in late 2018, when we realized we need a special solution for drone show events. Salute is a branch of Geoscan Pioneer project. Drone's ergonomics was improved drastically, giving us the ability to focus on show's technical details. It also reduced pre-launch preparation time.

On August, 3, our drone show took place in Moscow during grand celebration, dedicated to 80th anniversary of VDNH exhibition. 500 Geoscan Salute quadcopters took off in the night sky, and created images of VDNH main symbols and a flag of Russia.

This launch so far is the most large-scale event for our team, as well as for Russia. We worked hard to make it happen, and our spectators really appreciated the show.

Geoscan drone show team will continue to improve the technology, and soon our sky performance will become even more exciting.

Every year 1000 leading drone development and application companies get mapped by Drone Industry Insights analytic agency. This UAV companies environment map summarizes information on key business directions and form the entire industry image.

We are pleased to announce new version of Sputnik GIS with free mode. Sputnik GIS is a professional drone surveying software for engineers, surveyors and urban planners.

On June, 7, a Dragon boat festival took place in Taiwan. This is a state-scale event which is celebrated for more than 2 millenia all over China, Taiwan, Macao and Hong Kong. Traditionally, a lot of events are held on this day. One of the most spectacular is race of dragon-decorated rowboats. This year, Geoscan Pioneer team joined the celebration, along with 70 show drones. The swarm raised in the air and created a breathtaking light performance above the city of Taiyuan. This launch attracted everyone's attention and made the holiday truely memorable.

In Moldova, a summer season was opened at Orhey-land amusement park. In the evening, after the ceremony, a new-developed Geoscan Pioneer modification was presented to public. This time, drones used RTK system for precise positioning. 100 drones have risen into the sky to create impressing light animation. The new system proved itself reliable and put the show on entirely new level.
