Vision Air Research was founded to specialize in wildlife surveys using advance aerial infrared sensor technology (commonly called forward looking infrared – FLIR). Vision Air Research is the leader in using FLIR for wildlife survey. Our staff has conducted research since 1996 on the variables which influence detection rates by using collared animals (e.g., bighorn sheep, moose, and sage grouse) for verification. We integrate the triad of skills required to use FLIR with reliable results including a Certified Wildlife Biologist, outstanding aviation support, and thermography training and EXPERIENCE using IR thermography for wildlife applications.

Our system provides both FLIR and a natural color camera for rapid data collection for a wide range of natural resources, agricultural and industrial applications. Data is geo-referenced to provide you with a picture worth 1,000 words. Video and still images can be export in a range of formats, including shapefiles, html, or other graphic formats.
