It took me a second look to realize that that is a cantilever wing. It
would appear ideal for land management, aerial photography and any other
purpose that required an unobstructed view. Unfortunately, the
manufacturer appears to have gone out of business.
This one is registered to the U.S. Dept. of Interior in Boise Idaho.

What a strange aircraft! It looks like the nose from a Cessna was grafted onto
a Russian fuselage and had a wing from about three aircraft included.
