Built for Dynamic Coastlines
Sentinel Gulf delivers aerial data collection, AI-assisted analysis, independent construction verification, and geospatial intelligence for coastal engineering, environmental monitoring, restoration, and disaster response operations.
Sentinel Gulf supports coastal, environmental, engineering, construction QA/QC, and response missions with aerial data collection and deliverables designed for real operational decisions.
Shoreline mapping, erosion monitoring, barrier island assessments, post-storm documentation, and recurring coastal condition surveys.
Remote sensing-based imagery indices and analytics, habitat delineation, restoration monitoring, vegetation condition review, and GIS-ready mapping outputs.
Wildlife detection support, nesting-area documentation, disturbance mapping, and aerial survey workflows designed to reduce field time and improve coverage.
Rapid situational awareness, storm damage assessment, debris mapping, access documentation, and repeatable post-event survey products.
Orthomosaics, GIS deliverables, CAD-based deliverables, construction progress documentation, base mapping, and project visualization support.
Independent RTK-controlled LiDAR surface collection, contractor transect comparison, progress documentation, and pay-quantity verification support.
GeoTIFFs, GIS layers, annotated imagery, map exhibits, summary reports, and client-ready deliverable packages.
Sentinel Gulf helps engineering firms and construction managers verify contractor-submitted quantities using independent RTK-controlled LiDAR surfaces, contractor-transect comparison, and defensible volume reporting.
Sentinel collects dense RTK-controlled LiDAR data across fill areas, restoration sites, beaches, levees, marsh platforms, and other active construction surfaces.
Contractor-submitted transects can be compared against Sentinel-derived surfaces to identify where sparse line data agrees with or differs from the actual constructed condition.
Sentinel can provide both traditional average end area volume summaries and LiDAR surface-derived volume comparisons for pay-request QA/QC review.
Pay quantities should be based on defensible field evidence. Sentinel provides an independent verification layer that helps engineering firms review contractor submissions before presenting pay requests to project owners.
Sentinel Gulf combines advanced aerial platforms, RTK-controlled field collection, LiDAR-enabled surface verification, AI-assisted analytics, remote sensing workflows, and geospatial integration to transform raw data into defensible intelligence products. Our technology pipeline enables faster decision-making for coastal engineers, environmental teams, restoration stakeholders, and emergency response operations.
Two aircraft classes support different mission profiles: one optimized for rapid deployment and one built for premium long-endurance sensing operations.
RAPID RESPONSE
Built to deploy fast, fly low, and get useful answers when conditions are changing quickly.
Sentinel Manta is a long-range VTOL/pusher platform optimized for rapid deployment in dynamic coastal environments. Designed for flexible field operations, Manta supports high-resolution video feeds, RGB/NIR multispectral imaging, quick-look survey operations, and long-range communications.
Sentinel Manta combines rapid deployment, flexible sensing, and operational mobility in a platform designed for real-world coastal response missions.
When access is limited, timelines are compressed, or conditions are changing by the hour, Sentinel Manta is built to get airborne quickly and start delivering intelligence immediately.
PREMIUM ANALYTICS
The kind of aircraft that makes people stop and ask what just flew overhead.
Just think...you’re sitting on your front porch when you see something huge overhead. You look up, hear almost nothing, and ask yourself: What is that thing?
Sentinel Overwatch is a long-range, high-endurance pusher-type platform built for advanced environmental intelligence missions. Designed to fly farther, stay longer, and operate quieter than traditional systems, Overwatch delivers the sensing power and persistence real missions demand.
Sentinel Overwatch combines persistence, range, and unusually quiet flight in a platform built for real-world coastal intelligence missions.
Sentinel Gulf is built for organizations that need reliable aerial intelligence, defensible mapping products, and fast operational insight along dynamic coastal systems.
Sentinel Gulf was built at the intersection of coastal science, geospatial analytics, and operational aviation.
Founded by an environmental scientist and GIS practitioner with over 20 years of experience, Sentinel Gulf is a disabled veteran-owned small business based on the U.S. Gulf Coast, built to deliver faster, smarter, and more actionable environmental intelligence for dynamic coastal environments.
We understand the operational realities of working in complex coastal systems because we live and work here. Our mission is simple: provide agencies, engineering firms, environmental teams, and restoration stakeholders with reliable, defensible aerial intelligence that supports better decisions in the field.
Have a coastal monitoring, construction QA/QC, habitat mapping, wildlife survey, or disaster response mission to scope? Sentinel Gulf starts with defined deliverables, clear assumptions, and a practical path to useful data.
