Pre-Construction
SITE SELECTION
Make informed decisions early with clear, high-resolution aerial data that provides a complete understanding of the property and its surroundings. We capture current site conditions and context to support acquisition, feasibility, and early-stage planning.
Commonly used in:
Land acquisition, due diligence, feasibility studies, and early-stage development planning.
Establish a documented visual record of site conditions before construction begins to protect your team from disputes and liability. Our deliverables create a clear, time-stamped baseline that can be referenced throughout the project lifecycle.
Commonly used in:
Pre-construction documentation, risk management, claims support, and stakeholder protection.
ZONING MEETINGS
Bring clarity to the approval process with professional aerial visuals that clearly communicate site conditions, context, and project intent. We help you present your project effectively to boards, stakeholders, and the public.
Commonly used in:
Zoning board meetings, planning approvals, permitting processes, and public hearings
Progress Monitoring
Construction
Progress Photos & Video
Progress Documentation
We conduct repeat flights from consistent locations to document progress over time.
Capture your jobsite on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to create a consistent visual record of progress across all phases of construction. Maintain a timestamped history that supports reporting, coordination, and accountability.
Commonly used in:
Progress reports, OAC meetings, pay applications, stakeholder updates, and project documentation.
Mapping & Earthwork Analysis
Track site changes with accurate, repeatable mapping that allows teams to measure earthwork quantities and compare progress over time. Gain visibility into grading activity and validate work completed.
Commonly used in:
Earthwork tracking, quantity verification, grading analysis, and schedule validation
Site Plan Overlays
Plan vs. Reality Verification
Overlay design plans directly onto real-world site conditions to compare what’s built against what’s planned. Identify conflicts early and ensure alignment between design, field execution, and coordination teams.
Commonly used in:
VDC coordination, QA/QC, trade coordination, and conflict detection
Construction
Stockpile Volumetrics
Stockpile & Material Tracking
Measure stockpiles quickly and accurately to understand material quantities on site. Replace manual estimates with data-driven measurements that support planning, logistics, and cost control.
Commonly used in:
Material tracking, trucking estimates, inventory management, and cost verification
Concrete & Foundation Verification
Document pre-pour and post-pour conditions to ensure critical elements are installed correctly before they are permanently covered. Validate layout, penetrations, and embedded components with visual records.
Commonly used in:
Pre-pour inspections, QC documentation, VDC coordination, and issue resolution
Steel Structure
Structural Progress Tracking
Track the installation of structural steel and decking with consistent aerial captures that provide a clear view of sequencing, progress, and completed work. Maintain a record of structural elements before they are enclosed.
Commonly used in:
Schedule tracking, quantity verification, structural coordination, and progress validation
Roofing & Facade
Roofing & Exterior Inspection
Monitor roofing systems and building exteriors to verify installation quality and identify potential issues early. Capture detailed visuals that support inspection, coordination, and long-term performance.
Commonly used in:
Roofing inspections, facade verification, waterproofing checks, and exterior QA/QC
Progress Monitoring
Measure Volume
Post Construction
Final Project Tours & Marketing
Final Project Showcase
Capture your completed project with high-quality aerial and interior visuals that highlight design, craftsmanship, and overall execution. Deliver marketing-ready content that supports leasing, sales, and portfolio promotion.
Commonly used in:
Project closeouts, leasing campaigns, sales listings, portfolio marketing, and client handover
Construction Time-Lapse
