Pre-Construction Property Mapping

Our drone-based pre-construction property mapping provides an accurate, data-rich foundation for planning and developing real estate projects. By combining high-resolution aerial imagery with topographic surveys, property boundaries, and existing site conditions, this service enables developers, architects, engineers, and investors to evaluate feasibility, optimize site design, and prepare for permitting with confidence. Whether it’s identifying terrain challenges, assessing infrastructure access, or confirming property limits, drone mapping delivers a precise, visual starting point for successful construction planning.

Here’s what you can expect during the process:

Initial Consultation: The drone operator will discuss your project objectives—whether creating a base map for architectural design, documenting site conditions for contractors, or preparing materials for municipal review—and determine the data requirements.

Site Review & Flight Planning: The operator will assess the site for flight safety, note potential obstacles, and develop a flight plan that ensures complete coverage of the property in compliance with FAA Part 107 regulations in the US.

Drone Flight and Data Capture: Following the flight plan, the drone will capture overlapping high-resolution images for orthomosaic creation, along with oblique shots to provide context for surrounding features.

Data Processing & Analysis: The captured imagery will be processed into georeferenced maps and, if required, digital elevation models (DEMs) to reveal terrain gradients, drainage patterns, and elevation changes.

Mapping Deliverable Creation: The final mapping products will accurately depict property boundaries, natural features, man-made structures, and access points—serving as a visual and measurable foundation for site planning.

Essentially, pre-construction property mapping offers a complete, visual reference that merges accurate survey-grade data with clear aerial perspectives—helping stakeholders make informed, proactive decisions before breaking ground.
