Moya Aero and Fototerra have signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) to acquire 10 Moya eVTOLs. 

Fototerra plans to deploy the aircraft for digital aerial photogrammetry, hyperspectral digital aero photogrammetry, LiDAR surveys and environmental observation. 

The Moya eVTOL will receive specific equipment for capturing images, demonstrating its versatility in application. The Moya eVTOL is expected to enter into operation in 2026.

“We designed the Moya eVTOL for different missions. We can adapt the vehicle to attend various segments,” said Alexandre Zaramela, Moya Aero CEO. 

Fototerra offers various services and products linked to generating images that allow cartographic surveys, among others.

“Since its foundation, Fototerra has always been ahead of its time, implementing new technologies. Moya eVTOL is an essential step towards improving our service provision,” a Fototerra spokesperson added.
