The Skytec story

It all started as a hobby. When a mutual friend realized Andy and Bill had the same drone, he connected the two. As they flew their drones at Coolidge Park in Chattanooga, TN back in 2014, they started chatting about how revolutionary drone technology was.

“Before founding Skytec, I worked in GIS, creating static reports and maps that took years to deliver,” says Skytec CTO Andy Carroll. “By the time the report was done, the project was dead.”

With drones, GIS mapping could take a few days to deliver, not years. With that idea, Skytec was born in 2015. By 2024, Skytec graduated from drones and UAS and sold the drone portion of their business to focus on low-orbit satellite monitoring.

By staying at the leading edge of monitoring technology, Skytec is able to deliver environmental intelligence to clients about any landscape on Earth in near real time.

Skytec values

Win-win partnerships

When our clients succeed, we do too. Each client relationship is built on shared goals and genuine accountability. We want every client to feel like our partnership has created value they can point to.

Impactful entrepreneurship

We think like founders, because we are founders. We bring the urgency and disciplined prioritization of entrepreneurship to every client relationship.

Innovation

The geospatial technology landscape is evolving faster than anyone predicted. We stay at the frontier not because it’s trendy, but because our clients need us to.

Excellence

Our work could end up influencing legal or infrastructure decisions that could have ramifications for generations. We hold ourselves to a standard that matches those stakes.

Respect

We do this work because we care deeply about the places and people we serve, and that care shows up in how we work — and who we work with.

Enablement

The organizations responsible for stewarding our landscapes deserve the best possible tools, regardless of their size or budget. We make sure they have them.
