Traditional Survey Methods Are Slowing You Down
We get it. Tight budgets and smaller project sizes can make traditional surveying methods seem like the most “cost-effective” and straightforward choice.
But these methods can quickly turn into your biggest expense, because they’re:
SLOW & INEFFICIENT
It can take between one and three weeks to complete a traditional survey, and that’s if everything goes smoothly.
PHONE TO INACCURACIES
Traditional surveyors typically collect just one data point per 100 square meters, leading to gaps in the data.
LIMITED IN SCOPE
Human crews are limited to accessible areas, leaving hard-to-reach zones unchecked and missing crucial topographical details.
TOO MUCH HASS
The need for repeated visits drives up costs, creates scheduling headaches, and turns the whole process into a logistical nightmare.
Traditional land surveying methods lead to inflated project costs due to unnecessary rework, missed deadlines, and unreliable data.

Our Drone Services
LiDAR Drone Mapping
Using laser scanning technology, we can work in poor lighting and effectively penetrate through dense vegetation, creating data-rich surface maps with centimeter-level accuracy.
Topographical Analysis
Equipped with state-of-the-art sensors and high-res cameras, our drones capture detailed aerial photos within minutes to create 3D terrain models using photogrammetry.
Hydrology Surveys
Through advanced aerial surveying, we provide comprehensive data on drainage patterns, water flow, and flood zones for effective environmental assessments without delays.
Stockpile Management
By combining drone surveying with AI-driven stockpile analysis, we can track material usage in real-time to prevent overstocking, while also monitoring material quality and consistency.
Cut & Fill Analysis
Our 3D drone mapping offers precise volumetrics to optimize earthmoving operations. By comparing the existing terrain to your design, we provide accurate material volumes needed for cutting and filling.
Site Grading Surveys
With drone-powered data on elevation and drainage, we can proactively identify key challenges, such as erosion-prone areas and improper slopes. This ensures your site is prepared for the next phase.

The Cost of
Inaccurate Surveys
MISSED DEADLINES
Inaccurate surveys lead to poor planning, costly rework, and project delays that can stretch for weeks or even months.
COMPLIANCE ISSUES
Failing to identify site-specific challenges can lead to violations, fines, and legal battles that bring your project to a screeching halt.
DAMAGED REPUTATION
Surveying errors in the early stages can snowball into bigger problems, costing you credibility and making it harder to win future bids.
WASTED RESOURCES
Inaccurate data means wasted time, labor, and materials. Overestimated quantities, extra manpower, and rework can all drain your budget significantly.
BLIND SPOTS
Without accurate, real-time monitoring, you're left one step behind. This means on-site changes can spiral into major setbacks before you even have a chance to address them.
Avoid Costly Reworks

Here’s a breakdown of our pricing options:
- LiDAR Survey: Starting at $1,500 – Perfect for high-accuracy elevation mapping.
- LiDAR + Ortho: Starting at $2,500 – Includes high-resolution imagery combined with LiDAR data for more detailed analysis.
- LiDAR + Ortho + Linework: Starting at $3,500 – A comprehensive package that includes LiDAR, ortho imagery, and detailed linework for construction planning and earthworks analysis.
How long does it take to get my survey results?
Turnaround time for survey results typically ranges from [turnaround time] hours after the drone flight. For more complex projects, we will provide you with an estimated timeline in the initial consultation.
How accurate are drone surveys, really?
Our drone surveys are highly accurate, with precision down to a few centimeters. We integrate drone imagery with ground control points (GCPs) to ensure precise mapping and data accuracy. Afterwards, we use state-of-the-art data processing software to create detailed models that reflect real-time changes on your site, ensuring every measurement is correct and up-to-date.
What happens if weather conditions are not ideal for a flight?
