How it works

Four steps, and you only do the first one.

  1. Send us your PID

    Share the Property Identification number and any access notes. We check the parcel and airspace.

  2. We fly your land

    An Advanced RPAS pilot captures overlapping photos from the air, usually in under three hours on site.

  3. We align the boundary

    Your parcel lines, corners, and dimensions are placed on the photo and checked against the registry.

  4. Open it in Google Earth

    You get a link and a KMZ file. Fly over your hills, trees, roads, and shoreline from any device.

Pricing

Flat prices by property size, in Canadian dollars. Taxes extra. Travel outside Queens County may add a fee, which we confirm before booking.

Who uses Alterra Geomatics

Rural landowners

Understand your acreage, woods, shoreline erosion, and fence lines.

Buyers and realtors

Check where the boundaries really fall before an offer goes in.

Builders and contractors

Plan driveways, easements, clearing, outbuildings, and setbacks.

Farms and agriculture

Track field edges, drainage, hedgerows, and crop perimeters.

Why it matters

Paper deeds describe bearings and chains, and online maps only guess where fences sit. When you are buying, selling, excavating, or settling a fence line, guessing leads to disputes and delays. A current photo with your lot drawn on it shows site features, tree clearance, and structure placement before you break ground.
