Versatile in application. Fluid in approach. Unwavering in spirit.

At MĀKI, we go beyond providing services. We create end-to-end solutions that help organisations solve complex challenges in water monitoring, surveying, and asset management. Our solutions are built around autonomous surface vessels (USVs), remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), drones, and IoT sensor systems, all designed to operate in challenging environments with precision and reliability.

Whether it's developing custom water sampling platforms, integrating sonar and vision systems for underwater inspection, or designing bespoke monitoring frames for long-term environmental data collection, we tailor each solution to meet the specific needs of our clients. By combing engineering expertise with cutting -edge technology, we deliver cost-effective, adaptive, and practical tools that improve safety, reduce manual effort, and provide actionable insights.

Our solutions are developed in close collaboration with industry partners, councils, and researchers, ensuring they are not only technically advanced but also fit for purpose in New Zealand's unique conditions. From one-off prototypes to fully integrated systems, we work with you to design and deploy technology that makes water management and environmental protection smarter, faster and more efficient.

- Our customised solutions -

Customised USV Boats
– Autonomous Surveys and Sampling

Our customised unmanned surface vessels (USVs) are built to perform precise surveys and monitoring in lakes, rivers, and coastal areas. Each USV can be fitted with sonar systems for bathymetry, environmental sensors for real-time monitoring, and integrated water sampling equipment to collect samples at specific depths and locations. Beyond this, we work closely with clients to integrate any additional tools or instruments they require, making each USV highly adaptable to different applications. These platforms reduce manual effort, improve safety, and deliver reliable data for environmental monitoring, bathymetry, and resource management.

Customised ROVs
– Safe and Efficient Underwater Inspection

We design and adapt remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to meet the unique requirements of underwater inspection and monitoring. From dam and bridge surveys to aquaculture inspections and harbour asset management, our ROVs can be equipped with high-definition cameras, sonar, manipulators, and specialised sensors. This allows clients to access hard-to-reach or hazardous environments safely while capturing high-quality visual and spatial data for informed decision-making.

Customised AUVs
– Autonomous Underwater Exploration

For larger-scale and deeper-water projects, we develop customised autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) that operate independently over extended missions. These vehicles can be fitted with sonar arrays, cameras, and environmental sensors to map seabeds, monitor marine ecosystems, or inspect submerged infrastructure. By automating underwater data collection, our AUV solutions provide efficient coverage of wide areas, reducing costs while increasing survey accuracy and consistency.

Customised Drones
– Mapping and Client-Specific Integrations

We offer customised drone solutions for aerial data capture, enabling high-resolution mapping, photogrammetry, and environmental monitoring. Drones can be equipped with RGB, multispectral, or thermal cameras to provide insights into land use, vegetation health, erosion, and shoreline changes. Beyond standard imaging systems, we also integrate specialised equipment based on client requirements, making each drone solution adaptable to different industries and applications. By tailoring flight systems and payloads, our drones deliver fast, accurate results while reducing the risks and costs associated with traditional surveying methods.

IoT Solutions
– Connected Monitoring Systems

We design and deploy IoT-based monitoring solutions that collect, transmit, and analyse environmental data in real time. From custom-built reef monitoring frames to sensor networks for water quality or infrastructure health, our IoT solutions provide continuous insights without the need for constant manual intervention. Data can be accessed remotely through secure platforms, helping clients track trends, identify issues early, and make smarter decisions for resource management and environmental protection.

Satellite Imagery
– Wide-Area Monitoring and Analysis

We integrate satellite imagery into our solutions to provide a large-scale view of land and water environments. Using high-resolution imagery and advanced analysis techniques, we help clients monitor changes over time, detect environmental risks, and support planning at regional or national scales. When combined with our on-the-ground surveys, satellite data provides a powerful tool for building a complete and accurate picture of environmental conditions.
