What It Is

Your Whole Site, Mapped to the Centimetre

Our FAA Part 107 pilots fly survey-grade drones tied to GPS ground control, turning thousands of aerial photos into orthophotos, elevation models and 3D meshes your designers can measure directly.

A 100-acre site that took a ground crew a week now maps in a day — with contours, stockpile volumes, tree locations and change detection a tape measure could never deliver.

What's Included

Mapping Deliverables

Orthophotos

Distortion-free aerial imagery scaled to survey control — measure distances right on the photo.

3D Terrain Models

Digital surface and elevation models with 1-foot contours for grading and drainage design.

GIS & CAD Layers

Utilities, boundaries, vegetation and structures delivered as shapefiles and DWG base maps.

Progress Flights

Repeat missions for volume tracking, change detection and stakeholder updates.

“The drone topo they delivered saved us two weeks of design time. Contours, utilities, tree locations — everything our engineers asked for.”
