See exactly where water flows across your site
Hydrology solutions
Combine drone surveys, machine telematics, and automated reporting into a single integrated platform built for watershed and catchment analysis.
Key benefits
Track water flow paths across terrain in 3D
Automatically define catchment boundaries for your site
Identify areas of risk
Plan grading and drainage with precision to reduce risk
Plan more efficiently
Identify areas for detention, retention, or diversion
Support decision-making
Provide clear visual evidence for stakeholders and regulators
Why it matters
Water doesn’t stop at your site boundary, it follows the land. Propeller’s watershed analysis shows exactly where water will travel and collect, letting teams prevent flooding, erosion, and operational delays. Instead of guessing how water moves, you get a data-driven map of every catchment area and flow path.
How our watershed / catchment analysis function works
Step-by-step
- Upload site survey data from drones, LiDAR, or AeroPoints
- Run watershed analysis—Propeller calculates flow paths and catchment boundaries automatically
- Visualize results in 3D or 2D to see how water moves across slopes and depressions
- Adjust site design or drainage plans based on actionable insights
- Share interactive maps with your team for coordinated planning
