Craig Holland, Founder From the ground to the skyline, organizations depend on accurate aerial intelligence to plan smarter and design and operate with confidence.
Holland Productions has become the partner they trust.
Holland Productions, based in Canada, delivers precise, reliable drone data and aerial imaging, converting each perspective into a competitive edge for professionals who are dependent on accurate visuals. Topographic maps, volumetric measurements and ground models provide the accuracy teams need to plan what comes next, while inspections across roofs, forests and infrastructure reveal the issues that matter before they escalate. And when the job demands a deeper view, LiDAR, photogrammetry and thermal imaging deliver the added insight teams rely on to plan with certainty. Alongside the technical output, the company produces aerial photos and video content for marketing teams and film, media and television productions.
While many drone companies focus narrowly on one sector, Holland Productions built its reputation by solving complex challenges across the full landscape of aerial requirements. Construction teams need clear progress documentation, while energy and roofing clients focus on structural health and foresters track environmental conditions. Land planners depend on accurate ground models, and media crews look for polished, intentional imagery. Holland Productions tailors each mission to the end-use case. Flights are engineered to capture multiple datasets in one operation, maximizing value and protecting budgets. Clients don’t have to guess what’s possible. They get a partner who sees the entire problem and aligns the aerial plan to solve it.
Consistency That Can Be Counted On
What sets Holland Productions’ services a part from its competition is their ownership of the entire workflow. One internal team manages flight planning, data capture, processing, and final deliverables, giving clients a single accountable partner throughout the project, without compromising data breach.
“We collect, process and analyze every dataset ourselves, giving clients consistent quality, tighter data security and deliverables they can trust without the uncertainty that comes, from outsourcing,” says Craig Holland, founder.
This in-house model gives the company tight control over quality, performance and data protection. Clients value the assurance that their information stays with one trusted team and that the workflow stays consistent throughout the project. The internal workflow removes the risk of data mismanagement or corruption and ensures clients retain full ownership of their data from start to finish. The approach developed naturally over time as the team saw that outsourcing introduced variables that could compromise accuracy.
While many competitors scale through large pilot networks, Holland Productions chooses controlled growth so performance never wavers. It’s a strategic tradeoff that clients appreciate. They get the same standard of accuracy every time, no surprises.
A Complete Suite of Aerial Intelligence
Holland Productions operates several advanced sensors that allow it to deliver targeted information across many industries. Its mapping services use photogrammetry and RGB sensors to create detailed imagery and highly accurate 3D models. When a site has dense vegetation or complex ground conditions, it turns to LiDAR to generate bare-earth terrain models that reveal true elevations. It also uses thermal sensors to identify heat loss, roofing issues and electrical anomalies.
These tools produce deliverables that make decisions easier for clients. Building inspectors and contractors often use the company’s 3D structure models. These models include geo-referenced texture data and can be explored from a desktop. Users can study walls, rooftops and features they cannot reach safely in person.
Designers and planners rely on digital terrain models and DWG files that feed directly into their design software. These mapping products guide grading plans, drainage decisions, excavation needs and feasibility studies. Roofing companies depend on thermal imagery to spot membrane failures and areas affected by moisture. Forestry clients turn to canopy height models and vegetation classifications to understand density, species distribution and environmental conditions.

Construction monitoring has become one of the company’s most in-demand service lines. It returns to project sites on a set schedule and flies the same routes using GPS and RTK guidance. Each flight matches the previous one, which allows month-to- month imagery to line up with precision. Clients use this consistent view to track progress, report milestones and resolve disputes before they escalate.
One recent project shows how valuable this level of detail can be. A landowner with a one-hundred-acre forested property needed a topographic map to help choose the right place for a new building. The terrain was steep and the vegetation dense. The company combined photogrammetry and LiDAR to create a bare-earth model and added a tree classification layer that highlighted tree density and individual tree characteristics. The client used the information to select a flatter building site and avoid unnecessary tree removal. The result saved time and money while reducing environmental impact.
A Commitment to Quality And Professional Responsibility
Holland Productions places firm boundaries around its role. It uses RTK base stations and rover tools, but it does not offer land surveying services. It is transparent about being a mapping and imaging provider. Surveyors, engineers and planners appreciate the clarity because it allows them to integrate drone mapping into larger technical studies without confusion. This distinction is critical for technical and regulatory readers who depend on a clear separation between mapping and surveying.
This clear sense of purpose also shapes how the company approaches its development. Drone technology moves quickly, and the team is robust by treating learning as a daily practice rather than an occasional task. Drone and sensor technology is advancing rapidly, which requires upskilling, training, new certifications, staying current with standards and regulations, and regular evaluation of emerging tools. The team uses multiple instruments similar to surveyors but remains transparent about their limitations to preserve accuracy and trust. New sensors launch into the market, software evolves and regulations shift in ways that can reshape an entire workflow. Staying engaged with these changes helps the company protect the accuracy and safety standards that clients depend on.
As the team adopts new tools, it also embraces new thinking brought in by clients. Many industries are still figuring out how drone data can support them, and as a result, unusual requests come in regularly. Clients frequently suggest creative applications that push the team to explore use cases they had not previously considered, and several new services have emerged from this ongoing collaboration. The company listens closely and evaluates whether each idea is safe and meaningful. If those two conditions are met, it will explore those requests. This mindset has helped Holland Productions adapt to new sectors and respond to emerging needs without losing its footing.
The internal workflow gives the company full control over how data is collected and processed, which keeps results consistent no matter how many projects are underway. Holland Productions moves carefully when it comes to growth, since expanding too quickly could weaken the standards it has worked hard to build. Clients benefit from this steady approach because they know exactly what level of work to expect each time they engage the company.
New Capabilities and A Future Defined By Complex Missions
Regulatory updates in Canada have widened the range of operations that qualified drone companies can perform. Holland Productions has earned Level OneComplex certification along with an RPOC. These credentials allow it to take on larger and more challenging missions under updated Transport Canada rules. They also reduce the need for a Special Flight Operation Certificate in certain situations, which simplifies planning and can speed up timelines.
With these certifications, Holland Productions can operate low-risk beyond the visual line of sight in unpopulated, uncontrolled airspace when the appropriate crew is in place. This opens opportunities in long-corridor mapping, remote infrastructure inspections and broad environmental studies. It plans to grow in these areas with care, always putting safety first. Complex missions demand coordination and training, and the company intends to maintain the same standard that built its reputation.
Looking ahead, Holland Productions expects to strengthen its workflow and broaden how it uses drone data. Clients continue to bring creative ideas, and those ideas often guide the development of new services. As more industries adopt drone technology, Holland Productions is well-positioned to support organizations that rely on accurate information to make informed decisions.
The company has built a strong foundation by controlling its workflow, investing in advanced sensors, maintaining professional boundaries and delivering accurate data that clients can trust. With expanding regulatory opportunities and a steady commitment to quality, Holland Productions is ready for larger missions and more complex challenges.
