Never Compromise on Safety

Once compromising safety is regarded as an option,
it remains a practice until an incident occurs.

Safety First – The NH Springs LLC Commitment

At NH Springs LLC, safety is woven into the fabric of every project. We deliver centimeter-accurate LiDAR surveys using the DJI Matrice 350 RTK paired with the DJI Zenmuse L2 LiDAR sensor and Emlid base station technology. But before any data collection begins, our unwavering culture of safety takes precedence. Every flight is treated as its own mission – thoroughly pre-planned, risk-assessed, and executed with precision. Our FAA Part 107-certified remote pilots adhere strictly to federal regulations, including preflight inspections (107.49), and conditions for safe operation (107.15).

We prioritize honesty in communication, exemplary service to our clients, and integrity in every decision – ensuring your project is completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards.

The DJI Matrice 350 RTK: Built for Unmatched Safety and Performance

The Matrice 350 RTK is the industry's gold standard for enterprise drones, featuring multi-layered redundancy in both aircraft and sensor systems to maximize flight safety. Here's why it's perfect for safe, high-precision LiDAR surveys:

Safety Feature

Specification

Benefit to You

Max Flight Time

55 minutes

Covers large sites (up to 200 acres per flight) without rushing or risking errors.

Omnidirectional Obstacle Avoidance

APAS 5.0 Sensing

Automatically detects & avoids trees, power lines, structures – 6 directions.

Triple-Redundant Controls

3x IMUs, 2x GNSS, Backup Battery

Failsafe operation – if one system fails, others take over seamlessly.

RTK Precision

Centimeter Accuracy

Pinpoint positioning reduces flight time & collision risk.

Failsafe Return-to-Home

Auto-Activated

Safely returns on low battery or signal loss.

Redundant Batteries

Dual Battery Compartment

All batteries have internal cycle monitoring. Should the unexpected happen with a battery we can RTH even with one battery out. 
Operating Temperature Range -4°F to 122°F

We are ready for New England winters or summer heat. 

 

Your Privacy: Our Top Priority

We respect property boundaries and personal privacy with a proven two-phase flight protocol:

  1. Boundary Fly (Camera Off): We first trace the exact perimeter of your project area only using LiDAR alone when near residential property lines – imaging camera off. This confirms no overflight or imagery of neighboring residences.
  2. Precision Mapping: Only then do we map the interior with full sensors, ensuring zero unintended imagery of homes, yards, or people.

Result: Clean, compliant data focused solely on your site – honoring FAA privacy guidelines and our commitment to integrity.
