Tailored Geospatial Workflows For African Industry

Every sector faces unique physical, regulatory, and topographical demands. We configure specialized hardware, analytics, and lifecycle services to ensure maximum accuracy and operational return on investment.

GNSS survey equipment set up on an active construction site.

Six Sectors. One Certified Partner.

From open-pit mines to disaster-response zones, we engineer workflows that match the terrain, regulation, and risk profile of each sector we serve.

01

Mining, Quarrying & Heavy Earthworks

Overcome the hazards and slow turnaround of manual pit surveys. KACO equips mining companies with autonomous drone LiDAR for rapid stockpile volumetric reconciliation, Trimble robotic total stations for highwall slope deformation monitoring, and Carlson Mining software for drill-and-blast design.

  • Volumetric AuditingMonthly cut/fill calculations with sub-5cm accuracy using DJI Matrice 350 RTK & Zenmuse L2.
  • Pit Wall SafetyContinuous deformation and prism monitoring with Trimble S-Series robotic stations.
  • Mine Geology ModelingCarlson Geology & Mine Design software integration.

Land Administration, Titling & Cadastre

Accurate land records are the foundation of national economic development. KACO establishes national and regional geodetic control networks (CORS), executes legal cadastral boundary surveys, and configures Esri ArcGIS Enterprise land registry databases for municipal and government authorities.

  • CORS Network EstablishmentMulti-frequency reference stations for continuous RTK corrections.
  • Boundary FormalizationSub-centimeter Trimble GNSS static and RTK parcel surveys.
  • Spatial Land RegistriesSecure, searchable parcel databases built on Esri Parcel Fabric architecture.

Utilities, Energy & Telecom Corridors

Protect existing underground assets and model overhead networks. We combine US Radar Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for detecting buried pipes and fiber optic cables with drone LiDAR for mapping high-voltage transmission line vegetation clearances.

  • Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)Triple-frequency GPR scanning eliminates strike hazards.
  • Transmission Line ModelingAerial LiDAR identifies tree encroachment and conductor sag.
  • Asset GeodatabasesEsri Utility Network deployment for water, power, and telecom operators.
