SeaTerra GmbH

The development of technical innovations for unexploded ordnance detection became the trademark of SeaTerra. We took on the extraordinary challenge of building a drone system for performing an UXO survey. After several years of development work, we can now offer a reliable and efficient detection system for magnetic data acquisition.

Sensor technology

Equipped with three Fluxgate magnetic sensors, our drone can record magnetic data in flight.

During the data acquisition the disturbances caused by the flight movements and electric-driven rotors are constantly compensated.


Areas of application

We have developed our drone concerning different application scenarios:

  • For terrain that is difficult to walk on, such as moors, wet meadows, beach, mud flats and shallow water areas.
  • For wide, open areas such as military training areas, deserts, scree fields.
  • For areas that cannot be entered without risk to body and life.

In all these areas, the drone offers the possibility of seamless data recording along predefined flight lines.


Due to a magnetic noise of the drone of 3nT, we are able to reliably detect objects of 5.0 kg metallic mass down to a depth of 4.0 m.

The flight altitude can be defined variably before the flight, according to the vegetation and the topography. Areas that are free from disruptive vegetation are flown over at a height of 0.5 m above the ground. The distance to the ground is determined by an optical sensor, the height is kept stable and automatically corrected if necessary.

The dual GPS with RTK accuracy ensures a position accuracy of the drone of +/- 10cm. The design of the dual GPS enables the recording of the flight direction and the angle, which is the prerequisite for an exact line flight and the subsequent, reliable data evaluation.
