3D Modeling

3D modeling creates a vivid display of your development site and provides a collaborative experience with clients and field personnel. In a fraction of the time it would take for a ground-based survey crew to provide the same information, we can provide accurate measurements of your site and create detailed 3D imaging.

Aerial Inspections

Aerial imagery allows for detailed inspections of the building envelope (below-grade, walls and roofing) that cannot be captured by ground-based inspections. Drones allow for a detailed inspection to be performed without damaging the roof and placing the inspector in unsafe conditions.

Plant Health

Drone technology can cut down labor requirements and reduce resource requirements (such as fresh water and pesticides), offering some relief to the modern-day farmer. Information provided by drone images can reveal the changing health and quality of plants, offering the information necessary to improve crop management.

Point Cloud Exports

In a fraction of the time it would take to conduct a ground‐based survey, a drone can capture imagery of a project site that can then be processed into highly accurate point clouds compatible with Building Information Modeling (BIM) software, and assisting builders in all stages of construction, including initial site survey and design, volume and elevation measurements and comparisons, and quality assurance.

Site & Building Measurements

Drone mapping is a powerful new tool allowing inspectors to safely and easily capture high-resolution aerial views of a site in minutes. The technology captures accurate data quickly, including linear dimensions, area measurements, and slope calculations.
