Team

Three directors. One van. Most of the planet.

Duncan Lees has been scanning for longer than the word LiDAR has been in common use, and turns up on National Geographic when he isn't in court explaining a point cloud. Jandira Guasque trained as an architect, flies the drones and teaches the next generation how to do this. David Holden has run aviation businesses in 125 countries and keeps the aerial side ahead of the regulator. Based near Stansted; working wherever the work is.

Between us: art, architecture, archaeology, animation, aviation, conservation, VFX, drone operations, photogrammetry, forensics, geomatics, construction, virtual production, television, lecturing, expert testimony and, for reasons that make sense after a drink, viticulture. The company brought it under one roof in 2024.

Duncan Lees, Director

DIRECTOR

Duncan Lees

One of the most experienced terrestrial LiDAR, cyber-scanning and close-range laser scanning practitioners working today, and a photographer before any of that. He has led multi-disciplinary teams across all of 3D.

He also explains the work: papers, books, seminars, university teaching, television. Most recently he appeared in the National Geographic series Lost Cities with Albert Lin, which put his archaeology, geomatics and VFX in one place.

In forensic geomatics he helped bring 3D recording and visualisation into accident and crime-scene investigation and into the courtroom.

Jandira Guasque, Director

DIRECTOR

Jandira Guasque

A 3D scanning and photogrammetry specialist with some of the largest film, television VFX and architectural projects of recent years behind her. She trained as an architect in Brazil, which shows in how she reads a building.

A qualified VLOS UAV operator with a focus on high-precision aerial mapping, she runs the aerial side on location and the processing after it.

She teaches post-graduate students, including the examined photogrammetry module for props at the NFTS.

David Holden, Non-Executive Director

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

David Holden

Thirty years of international business leadership across downstream oil, energy, aviation and infrastructure, operating in 125 countries. He joined at the founding of the company.

He and Duncan met on their first day of infant school and stayed close through university, which is the kind of trust a board needs.

He works with Highlands and Islands Airports and Windracers on net-zero regional aviation for remote Scottish communities, and his grasp of remotely piloted aircraft keeps our aerial capture ahead of what is coming.
