Who we are

Built around field crews, not sales offices

Arkman Dynamics was formed to bring survey-grade airborne sensing to projects where the alternative is either an expensive manned aircraft campaign or a slow, partial ground survey.

Our teams fly LiDAR and magnetometer payloads over exploration blocks, operating mines, quarries and plant sites, then process everything in-house. More than 700 km2 of LiDAR area and 2,000 line-kilometres of magnetic data have been acquired to date, at point densities of 20–25 points per square metre and coverage rates of up to 1,200 hectares per day on open ground.

Solar PV thermography is delivered jointly with SolarMark, whose inspection workflow and reporting platform sit alongside our flight and processing capability.

What we stand for

Four things we do not trade away

Safety first, always

Site inductions, permits and flight clearances are completed before any sortie. No dataset is worth an incident.

Measured accuracy

We report the accuracy we measured on your site against your control, not a figure copied from a brochure.

Honest scope

If photogrammetry, ground survey or a different method suits your question better, we say so before you spend money on flying.

Delivered on time

Field windows and reporting dates are committed in writing, and we communicate early when weather or access changes them.

Leadership

Managing Director

Sundaresan N

Sundaresan N leads Arkman Dynamics and stays directly involved in survey planning, client scoping and quality review on live assignments. Enquiries that need a technical decision reach him, not a form handler.

Capability

Equipment & processing

How we work

Documentation, confidentiality and clear communication

Before the field

A written scope note fixes coverage, deliverables, accuracy expectations, reporting dates and responsibilities on both sides. Site safety and access requirements are confirmed with your team.

During the survey

Daily field updates where connectivity allows, immediate escalation of anything that affects coverage or schedule, and re-flights on the spot rather than after demobilisation.

After delivery

Data is handed over with a method statement, accuracy results and limitations. Client data is treated as confidential and is not reused or published without approval.

Work with a team you can call directly

Every enquiry is answered by someone who has been on the survey.
