Mission-Ready Services for Surveillance, UAS, and ISR

From early feasibility through deployment and sustainment—MAXSUR helps organizations build durable capabilities, not one-off demos.


MAXSUR has supported public safety and government users since 2012 with systems that improve situational awareness, reduce response risk, and make field operations more effective.

We bring a builder’s mindset—combining engineering, operational experience, and program execution—to help agencies and infrastructure operators move from intent to real capability. Whether you need research and development, mission-based training, satellite monitoring, advisory support, or a fully integrated ISR solution, our work stays grounded in the realities of deployment: procurement constraints, human workflows, sustainment, and measurable operational impact.

  • Veteran-led, mission-driven teams
  • Served 700+ public safety and government organizations
  • Deep experience across law enforcement, military, and critical infrastructure

What Can We Do For You

  • Validate strategy with impact, risk, and ROI analysis
  • Translate requirements into systems that field teams can operate
  • Build and integrate hardware, software, and communications
  • Deliver training + deployment support so capability sticks
  • Improve workflow with apps, data management, and AI/ML

R&D that catapults teams to mission objective breakthroughs

While pioneering advanced solutions for your team, we run the work that happens before a program succeeds: defining requirements, validating feasibility, modeling cost and impact, and building components into a system you can actually deploy.

  • Stakeholder and impact analysis
  • Technical feasibility studies and test planning
  • Financial justification (CBA, NPV, IRR)
  • Component and system development
  • Implementation, transition, and sustainment planning

Training built around missions, not slides

Our training is practical, scenario-based, and designed to create self-sufficient teams—operators who can deploy, troubleshoot, and adapt as conditions change.

  • Mission-based instruction + hands-on repetition
  • Equipment-use training for real deployments
  • Train-the-trainer options
  • System-building skills (UAS setup, surveillance installs, field hardening)

Satellite awareness—on-demand, scheduled, and historical

When you need broad-area visibility, change detection, or historical context, satellite services provide a dependable layer of intelligence without deploying field assets.

  • On-demand tasking and scheduled monitoring
  • Analysis services and reporting options
  • Historical imagery for trend and incident review

Specialty data options (including hyperspectral where applicable)

Strategy and alignment that survives procurement and operations

We help leaders define what to build, why it matters, and how to resource it—so programs earn support and deliver measurable outcomes.

  • Solution and roadmap development
  • Stakeholder alignment and resource planning
  • ROI studies: government CBA and commercial NPV/IRR framing
  • Deployment models, governance, and sustainment planning

 Enterprise ISR integrations—sensors, comms, and workflows

We build and integrate systems that connect field collection to decision-making—reliably, securely, and with operators in mind.

  • Custom enterprise solutions and integrations
  • Specialized imaging and sensing architectures
  • Specialized communications and data pathways
  • Operator-focused workflows and reporting

Payloads that do the job—imaging, mapping, robotics

When off-the-shelf payloads don’t meet the mission, we design and integrate specialized payload solutions.

  • Imaging payloads and sensor integration
  • LiDAR, mapping, NDVI, and measurement payloads
  • Robotic payloads for deployment or mechanical manipulation
  • Environmental hardening and field integration

Mission-specific platforms—built from the ground up

We support platform development with pragmatic trade-offs: endurance, comms, payload, maintainability, and sourcing aligned to your constraints.

  • Ground-up system development and integration
  • NDAA-aligned sourcing strategies
  • Multirotor, single-rotor, fixed-wing, and VTOL architectures
  • Test planning, documentation, and transition support

Software and AI that turns hardware into capability

Drones and sensors are only as useful as the workflow behind them. We build applications and AI/ML models that organize, automate, and accelerate operational outcomes.

  • Mobile, desktop, and cloud applications
  • Evidence-grade organization and reporting workflows
  • AI/ML model development and deployment support
  • Workflow optimization for enterprise rollout
