Frequent Drone Questions
Why should I hire a licensed FAA drone pilot?
You are required to have a current FAA Part 107 drone pilot license to fly commercially. If you’re found to be flying your drone commercially without a license, you can face steep fines to the tune of $32,666 and up. Sometimes the penalties can be quite substantial. All of our drones meet FAA regulations and are registered with the FAA. Licensed drone pilots can obtain approval to fly in restricted airspace in order to complete projects. We have licensed commercial drone pilots for your project.

What is Photogrammetry and Lidar Scanning?
Most often utilized for construction projects and land development, drone photogrammetry involves capturing large volumes of 2D images over a geographical area and compiling them to create 3D topographical models and orthomosaic maps—or images created from collections of photographs.
In effect, drone photogrammetry makes it possible to see the same ground point from different angles and elevations. From there, we create a 3D map that includes a range of helpful visual cues, like color and texture.
Companies are increasingly using it with drones to produce high-quality surface maps for public and private lands. Lidar can be more accurate in some circumstances and performs better in poor lighting conditions
