Mining and Aggregates

REX Drone Services provides advanced mining and industrial drone inspections across Ontario and Canada, helping teams capture accurate site data safely and efficiently. Using high-resolution, thermal, and multispectral sensors, we support open-pit mining, stockpile measurement, infrastructure inspections, and environmental monitoring.
From volume analysis and tailings dam inspections to structural assessments and change detection, our drone solutions deliver precise, inspection-ready data without the need for manual access in hazardous areas.
We go beyond data capture by providing 3D models, detailed inspection reports, and actionable insights, enabling teams to monitor site conditions, reduce risk, and make informed decisions faster.
For reliable drone mining inspections in Ontario and across Canada, REX Drone Services offers a safer, faster, and more cost-effective solution.
Drone Surveying, Mapping & Aggregates Services in Ontario & Canada
Drone-powered mining and industrial inspections deliver a higher level of detail than traditional inspection methods by accessing hard-to-reach and hazardous areas safely. Based in Toronto, REX Drone Services provides reliable inspection and monitoring solutions across Ontario and throughout Canada. From open-pit mines and stockpiles to infrastructure and critical assets, our drones capture high-resolution visual and thermal data to identify risks early. It’s a safer, faster, and more cost-effective way to monitor operations and maintain asset integrity- without compromising on accuracy.


What We Do?
Topographic Mapping & Geospatial Data Capture
We capture high-resolution aerial data using advanced UAV systems to generate accurate Digital Elevation Models (DEM), contour maps, and orthomosaic imagery. Our drone surveying solutions provide centimeter-level accuracy, making them ideal for construction planning, engineering design, and land development projects.
Land Surveying & Site Analysis
Our drone-based land surveying services deliver fast, reliable boundary mapping and detailed site analysis for real estate, infrastructure, and large-scale development. By reducing field time and improving data accuracy, we help teams make faster, more informed decisions.
Stockpile Measurement & Volume Analysis
We provide precise stockpile volume calculations using drone photogrammetry and LiDAR technology. Designed for mining, aggregates, and construction operations, our data helps track material quantities, improve inventory management, and reduce costly estimation errors with accuracy typically within 1–3%.
3D Modeling, Point Clouds & Terrain Mapping
Our team delivers high-resolution 3D models, point clouds, and Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) for infrastructure planning, site visualization, and progress tracking. All outputs are compatible with CAD, BIM, and GIS platforms, ensuring seamless integration into your existing workflows.
Mining, Infrastructure & Industrial Drone Inspections
We provide drone surveying and inspection services for mining, infrastructure, and industrial sites across Ontario and Canada. Services include open-pit mapping, tailings dam inspections, environmental monitoring, and structural inspections of bridges, buildings, and utilities.
Using high-resolution, thermal, and geospatial data, we detect cracks, corrosion, and structural risks early - without manual access, improving safety, reducing downtime, and increasing site visibility.
Data Processing, Reporting & Deliverables
Beyond data capture, we provide fully processed outputs including orthomosaic maps, 3D models, point clouds, contour maps, and inspection reports. Our deliverables are available in industry-standard formats compatible with CAD, BIM, and GIS software, giving your team actionable insights for planning, compliance, and decision-making.
