Airborne Sensing & Remote Collection
UAV-based collection for geospatial, magnetic, visual, thermal, and other specialized sensing missions where access, endurance, or repeatability matter.
Airborne Sensing • Data Analytics • Mission Support
Specialized sensing. Operational execution
Open Air Solutions integrates specialized sensors with airborne and field platforms, executes disciplined data collection, and turns raw information into usable intelligence for government and commercial clients.
Platform-agnostic
Field-deployable
Sensor-to-decision
What OAS Is Building
A scalable sensing and analytics capability designed to move specialized technology out of the lab and into real-world operations
Core Capabilities
Technical capability tied to operational execution
OAS works across the full collection lifecycle—from early integration and mission design through field execution, data validation, and final analysis.
Sensor & Payload Integration
Mechanical, electrical, data, and operational integration of specialized payloads onto fixed-wing, multirotor, and field-deployable platforms.
Data Processing & Analytics
Quality control, noise reduction, correlation, mapping, trend analysis, and reporting that convert raw sensor output into usable results.
Site Vulnerability Assessments
Grounded reviews of physical security, access, surveillance gaps, operating procedures, and site-specific vulnerabilities for critical facilities.
Field Operations & Mission Support
Planning, logistics, communications, deconfliction, field execution, and recovery support in remote, austere, or operationally complex environments.
Technical Consulting
Independent support for platform selection, test planning, vendor coordination, technology evaluation, and deployment strategy.
Current Focus
Airborne magnetic data collection and resilient navigation support
OAS is advancing the integration of compact, high-precision magnetometers with unmanned aircraft and edge processing systems. The objective is reliable magnetic survey data that can support mapping, anomaly detection, infrastructure analysis, and future navigation applications where GPS may be unavailable or unreliable.
Our role is operational: platform selection, payload integration, flight testing, magnetic-noise characterization, collection design, data quality control, and scalable field deployment.
01
Low-SWaP sensing
Compact sensors suited for integration on smaller, repeatable collection platforms.
02
Magnetically aware integration
Placement, calibration, interference testing, and collection workflows built around data quality.
03
Scalable collection
Standardized payloads and procedures designed to support repeat flights and fleet expansion.
04
Validated outputs
Repeatability testing, processing, and traceable quality control before data is delivered.
How We Work
Mission first. Platform second
OAS does not force a requirement into a preferred aircraft or sensor. We define the outcome, identify constraints, and assemble the right collection architecture for the job.
Define the requirement
Establish the decision, measurement, coverage, accuracy, security, and timeline requirements.
Design the collection
Select the platform, payload, processing stack, flight profile, and validation method.
Integrate and test
Build the payload interface, conduct ground and flight tests, and characterize system performance.
Deploy and deliver
Execute the mission, control data quality, and provide clear outputs with documented assumptions.
Markets & Missions
Built for difficult environments
Defense & National Security
Critical Infrastructure
Energy & Utilities
Natural Resources
Environmental Monitoring
Maritime & Coastal Operations
Emergency Management
Remote Site Assessment
About Open Air Solutions
Operational thinking for complex sensing
Open Air Solutions is a technical operations company built to bridge the gap between advanced sensing technology and the realities of field deployment.
Our team brings experience in military special operations, unmanned aircraft, operational planning, logistics, data analysis, and work in complex environments. That background shapes a direct approach: understand the mission, reduce unnecessary complexity, test under realistic conditions, and deliver results that can be used.
