Our brand for offshore survey
WoodSolutions
Seven tools written offshore by a working survey party chief — a survey DVR, a DTM viewer, a pipeline progress tracker, a personnel-on-board tracker, a device terminal, a remote desktop and a video broadcaster. Offline first, one installer each, four of them free.
What We've Built
Four Product Lines. Ten Apps. All Ours.
WoodSolutions — seven survey apps in one family — alongside GlobeLens, ChairTime and HGDev, plus the free Survey Tools. Every one designed, engineered and shipped by Whoastra Labs. No templates. No outsourcing. Full-stack, from concept to production.
WoodDVR
LiveThe survey DVR that runs on the PC you already have.
Records up to four ROV cameras in 30-minute sections with the survey data string logged beside them, burns a survey overlay into the video, takes averaged position fixes with quality statistics, keeps the surveyor's narration inside the recording, and sends the pictures back out to the client. One installer. No rack unit. Published pricing. The free WoodDVR Reviewer plays it all back on any PC.
Commercial — licensed per PC, every feature free for 3 days
- Up to 4 ROV cameras recorded in clean 30-minute sections
- Averaged, quick and span position fixes with quality stats
- Burned-in survey overlay, hotkey texts and voice narration
- RTSP / UDP re-broadcast to the client's screens
- 3D model add-on and the free WoodDVR Reviewer
WoodDTMViewer
LiveThe DTM viewer that opens the processing export as it is.
Loads the large gridded DTM .xyz files straight from processing, several surveys in one window, and measures them: points, vertical offsets, distances and profiles in 2D and along the surface in 3D, cut-and-fill volumes between surveys, waypoints from CSV, pipe routes and DXF / DWG drawings on top, web maps and weather, and a positioned GeoTIFF for the nav software. The survey office looks over the network, view only. Licensed per PC at $400 a year or $50 a month, three days free.
Commercial — $400 a year or $50 a month per PC, every feature free for 3 days
- 13 million points at 0.2 m open in about 12 seconds
- 2D and 3D measurements, profiles, areas and volumes
- Waypoints from CSV, DXF / DWG drawings, pipe routes
- GeoTIFF export positioned for NavView
- View-only access for the office over the network
WoodLineTracking
LiveLive pipeline survey progress, ROV or vessel — without the spreadsheet.
An offline survey progress tracker for pipeline surveys by ROV or by vessel. It replaces the ops progress workbook: lines, KPs and survey types are set up per job, the live data string drives runs and totals on its own, events are logged live as they happen, and every edit keeps an audit trail. Built offshore by a survey party chief, on a live pipeline survey campaign, for the survey office on board.
Commercial — free for personal use, licences for companies
- ROV or vessel surveys — GVI/CP, MBES, MAG, any type per job
- Live data string: automatic runs, speeds and ETA to any KP

No Degree Required. Just a Mind That Builds.
Whoastra Labs doesn't hire résumés. We find people who look at broken things and think ‘I can fix that.’ People who don't wait for instructions — they figure it out.
You don't need a degree. You don't need five years of experience. You don't need to know how to code yet.
What you need is the right mindset: first-principles thinking, problem-solving instincts, and the kind of persistence that doesn't quit when things get hard.
If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you. We'll teach you how to build. We'll put real projects in front of you. And we'll grow together — right here from Houma, Louisiana.
Problem Solvers
You see a problem and your first instinct is to break it apart and figure it out.
First-Principles Thinkers
You don’t copy answers. You reason from the ground up and build your own.
Can-Do Mindset
You say ‘I’ll figure it out’ more than ‘I don’t know how.’
Show Us How You Think
No résumé. No cover letter. Just answer two questions.
