SkyLabs Solutions

Skylabs provides high-resolution drone and satellite-supported mapping services for municipalities, HOAs, and private landholders in Alberta. We use aerial terrain capture, thermal overlays, and predictive ecological zoning to help communities plan resilient upgrades.

Each project includes site diagnostics, GIS mapping, CEIP-readiness scoring, and integration with CES permit tagging. Skylabs enables preemptive maintenance planning and grant funding alignment — not just inspection.

Whether it’s slope control, shoreline creep, tree loss, solar viability, or erosion tracking — our data supports smarter decisions without regulatory overreach. And with fully visual summaries, anyone can understand the impact.

We collect more than just images — Skylabs captures thermal and LIDAR data, integrates topographical overlays, and analyzes runoff directionality. These tools allow clients to visualize slope integrity, shoreline tension zones, and safe development areas within their land parcels.

Drone runs are CES-linked and time-stamped, with easy re-fly scheduling and historical overlays. We work directly with engineers, contractors, and funding agencies to eliminate guesswork and get approvals right the first time.

We don't create new red tape — we create new visibility. Skylabs helps communities identify ecological risk without mandating unnecessary infrastructure upgrades. Drone scans help locate: unmanaged drainage channels, erosion crests, slope displacement, and vegetation gaps.

We overlay this data with grant eligibility markers and share simplified reports with HOAs, church boards, and private landowners — turning diagnostics into action and preserving land value along the way.

Need to prove solar viability? Want CEIP to fund your drainage or lighting upgrade? Skylabs will validate eligibility before you submit your application. Our reports are CEIP-ready and CES-tracked, with optional overlays for skylight, roof grade, trench distance, and robotic equipment clearances.

Because your project deserves more than "maybe." It deserves certainty.

Skylabs operates on a simple, efficient, and fully documented workflow. Each engagement begins with a readiness review followed by a tailored drone scan plan. Our team captures high-resolution topography, thermal imagery, and vegetation indices — translating that data into GIS overlays and PDF reports.

Final deliverables are CEIP, CES, and grant-compatible. Lifecycle tagging supports long-term asset tracking for warranty claims, maintenance planning, and upgrade justification.

Skylabs goes beyond diagnostics — we help you connect to funding. Our clients receive CEIP-ready reports, WRRP and CEFP eligibility overlays, and language templates for ATF applications. Whether it's solar corridors or drainage corrections, our visuals back your applications with confidence.

And because we build for CES compliance, you’ll stay audit-ready every step of the way.

From Pine Lake to Poplar Ridge, our work is helping communities plan smarter and protect what matters. Recent Skylabs projects include:

• HOAs validating lighting upgrades via CEIP
• Church boards applying for trail signage grants
• Hamlet committees mapping erosion zones pre-development
• Rural halls using vegetation overlays for wildfire prep

Real data for real places — that’s our model.

Traditional land surveys are essential for legal boundaries — but they’re not enough when you're trying to plan infrastructure, secure funding, or evaluate ecological impact.

Skylabs delivers real-time, drone-based overlays with slope, vegetation, water flow, and CEIP impact scoring. You get data you can act on — not just data for a filing cabinet.

Think of us as the lens between your land and your funding strategy. We don’t replace engineers — we give them a smarter blueprint.

Skylabs is fully integrated with CES signage and QR-based field systems. Our maps inform where signs go, how trails are routed, and what installations qualify for CEFP or ATF funding.

Once trailheads and fitness stations are placed, we add those into CES with lifecycle logs and public scan history — so you can track wear, usage, and compliance automatically.

This is how civic infrastructure meets the cloud — with audit trails you don’t have to babysit.

We’re proud to support hamlets and project clusters across Red Deer County, including:

• Pine Lake CEIP watershed diagnostics
• Trenville slope resilience scans
• Ghostpine Creek flood mapping
• Green Acres topographic overlays

Each one CES-certified. Each one grant-eligible. And each one tailored to help local leaders move faster with less risk.
