Mapping the Minefields of Ukraine

As part of our mine and UXO disposal program, we have partnered with both corporate and charitable organizations, including Safe Pro AI and Smart Aid, to perform aerial surveys of the liberated territories of Ukraine in search of explosive remnants of war (ERW).  Our goal is to provide maps of the locations of ERW to the authorities responsible for clearing the land, as well as to local communities in an effort to minimize the danger to citizens.

As of April 2025, we have surveyed 1613 hectares of land in the Mykolaiv, Kherson, and Kharkiv regions. With the help of Spotlight AI, a visual recognition system specially designed for our purposes, we have located and documented 5185 pieces of ERW.

We could not have achieved this without donations of drones and other equipment by Eyes on Ukraine, ERW recognition software by Safe Pro AI, and funding from our community in the US and Europe.
