FAQ

Questions, answered.

Who can benefit from TideWatcher's services?

Construction companies, real estate developers, infrastructure firms, property managers, agricultural estates, government agencies, environmental consultants, and logistics companies across Mauritius.

How accurate is the data you capture?

Centimetre-level. Pre-planned flight paths, GPS-aligned ground control points, and high-resolution imaging give you data that holds up to billing verification, compliance audits and engineering analysis.

Is drone work safe and compliant with regulations?

Yes. Every operation complies with the Mauritius Department of Civil Aviation, local drone laws, and strict data-privacy standards. We hold all required permits for commercial flight.

What areas of Mauritius do you cover?

Islandwide — every district of Mauritius and its territories. The quality of the deliverable is the same whether you're in Grand Baie, Curepipe, Mahébourg or Rodrigues.

How quickly can you deliver?

Standard aerial photography lands in 48–72 hours. Orthomosaics, 3D models and GIS analysis typically take 5–10 working days. Timelines are agreed up front — no surprises.

What is GIS, and how can it help my business?

Geographic Information Systems combine spatial data to answer location-based questions — mapping land use, tracking environmental change, optimising routes, identifying development sites. It's raw location turned into strategy.

How do I get started?

Send a message via the form, email, or WhatsApp. We'll discuss your requirements, send a quote, and schedule the flight. From first contact to final deliverable, one team handles everything.
