Testimonials & Featured Clients

We hired Rex and his crew during the summer of 2019 to help us collect data on 3D iceberg profiles and to deploy tracking beacons on icebergs by drone. Rex and his crew were very professional, motivated, and extremely helpful in getting the job done. Our teams worked great together, and we collected a lot more data than we expected and our clients were very happy with the results.
