Drone And Aerial Services For Sites That Need A Clear View From Above
Part 107 licensed aerial capture for documentation, planning, and media, so your team can see the full picture without leaving the ground.
We provide purpose driven drone and aerial services for properties, facilities, and sites that need more than ground level photos.
From commercial real estate and development sites to telecom assets, campuses, infrastructure, and post event conditions, we capture the views that help teams plan, communicate, and make decisions.
Where it makes sense, we align aerial work with 3D Virtual Tours, HDR Photography And Media Bundles, Floor Plans And Google Street View, and Scan To BIM And CAD so one coordinated visit gives you complete coverage.
Who Drone And Aerial Services Are For
Drone and aerial services are most valuable when you need a wider context, a safer vantage point, or a view that ground based cameras cannot provide.
What You Actually Get With Drone And Aerial Services
Every project is scoped to your site and objectives, but most Drone And Aerial Services packages include the following.
-
Aerial Photography
• High resolution still images that show your site, structures, and surroundings from multiple vantage points.
• A mix of oblique views and more top down angles so both context and detail are clear.
• Images prepared for use in reports, listings, decks, presentations, and internal documentation. -
Aerial Video And Motion Clips
• Short, controlled motion passes that can be used as stand alone clips or edited into larger pieces.
• Views that reveal approach routes, site scale, and relationships between key elements in a way stills cannot.
• Files prepared in common formats and orientations so your team or editor can drop them directly into timelines or web placements. -
Mapping Ready Capture And Overviews
• Structured flight patterns suitable for basic orthographic style overviews and planning visuals.
• Wide area coverage that shows how buildings, lots, open areas, and infrastructure connect on a single canvas.
• Clear positioning that these outputs are for planning, communication, and internal reference, not stamped survey products. -
Files Prepared For Your Ecosystem
• Still images and clips delivered in formats that work well for web, decks, and internal systems.
• Higher resolution versions available for print, large displays, or detailed review when needed.
• Simple, consistent file naming and folder structure so your team can locate, share, and reuse assets without friction.
Where Drone And Aerial Services Deliver The Most Value
Aerial coverage is most powerful when the view from above changes how people plan, decide, or document what is happening on the ground.
-
Site Selection, Planning, And Stakeholder Briefings
Use aerial views to show how a site sits within its surroundings before you commit time and resources.
Reveal access routes, adjacent uses, nearby structures, and open areas in a way that simple maps and ground photos cannot.
Bring these visuals into planning meetings and briefings so everyone can see the same context and talk from a shared reference point. -
Construction Progress And Documentation
Track site changes over time with periodic aerial updates.
Show grading, foundations, vertical progress, and surrounding conditions in a sequence that is easy to understand at a glance.
Use this imagery in schedule discussions, investor updates, and project reports to support what is written in the text. -
Telecom And Vertical Infrastructure Context
Give teams a clear view of tower, rooftop, and facility locations relative to nearby structures, terrain, and access points.
Use aerial imagery to support new site evaluation, colocation discussions, and inspection planning before crews mobilize.
Keep a visual record that can be revisited when equipment, surroundings, or lease conditions change. -
Claims, Damage Assessment, And Hard To Reach Areas
Reach roofs, large sites, and impacted areas that are difficult or unsafe to access on foot.
Capture pre loss and post event conditions from above to support claims, scopes of work, and dispute resolution.
Provide carriers, adjusters, and legal teams with clear visuals that complement ground level documentation.
How A Drone And Aerial Project Runs
The process is built to be straightforward, with clear steps from first discussion to delivered aerial imagery and media.
-
Step 1: Scope And Site Review
We start with a short conversation about your site and your goals.
You share the property location, basic site details, and what you need to see from the air.During this step we:
• Confirm the type of site, such as commercial, industrial, telecom, campus, or residential.
• Clarify the primary use of the imagery, such as planning, documentation, marketing, or claims.
• Review addresses and nearby features so we can begin assessing airspace and access considerations.
-
Step 2: Flight Planning And Scheduling
Once the scope is clear, we plan how the flights will be conducted.
We look at airspace, light, access, and your schedule so operations are safe and efficient.During this step we:
• Check for controlled or sensitive airspace and note any limitations.
• Choose target dates and times that balance site activity with useful lighting and weather.
• Coordinate access details, staging areas, and on site points of contact.
-
Step 3: On Site Operations And Capture
On the day of the flight, we conduct a pre flight review and walk through the plan with your point of contact.
We then execute the agreed mission profiles to capture the images and clips you need.During this step we:
• Perform aircraft and safety checks before each flight.
• Maintain awareness of people, vehicles, and activities on the ground.
• Capture the planned stills, video passes, and overview sequences, adjusting for conditions while staying within the agreed scope.
-
Step 4: Processing, Delivery, And Follow Up
After capture, we process and organize the imagery and media, then deliver everything in the formats you need.
This typically includes:
• Selecting and refining aerial stills for clarity, contrast, and readability.
• Preparing video clips that are ready for editors, presentations, or web placement.
• Organizing files into a simple structure so your team can locate, share, and reuse assets.
If aerial coverage is part of an ongoing project or a recurring need, we can discuss a repeat schedule so updates are captured at the intervals that make sense for you.
Technical Capabilities And Compliance
Drone work around real property, infrastructure, and public spaces has to be handled with care. Our focus is on controlled, compliant operations that serve the project, not risky flights for their own sake.
-
Licensing And Qualifications
• Operations conducted under FAA Part 107 for commercial drone work.
• Experience focused on property, facilities, construction, infrastructure, and documentation tasks.
• Emphasis on predictable, repeatable results rather than one off stunt style flying. -
Aircraft, Missions, And Capture Profiles
• Multi rotor aircraft suited for low to mid altitude site work and controlled movements around structures.
• Typical missions include site overviews, approach and context passes, structure focused coverage, and mapping ready capture where appropriate.
• Flight profiles planned to balance useful vantage points with safe distances from people, vehicles, and sensitive areas. -
Airspace, Weather, And Operating Conditions
• Every project begins with a review of local airspace, nearby airports or heliports, and any special restrictions that may apply.
• Operations are scheduled around safe weather windows, with attention to wind, visibility, and precipitation so aircraft performance and image quality are not compromised.
• When locations are close to controlled or sensitive airspace, we discuss what is possible, what may require additional coordination, and what should not be attempted.
Safety, Risk Management, And Approvals
Aerial work around active sites, public spaces, and critical assets has to be handled with discipline. Safety and compliance are built into the way we plan and fly.
-
On Site Safety Practices
• Coordinate with your on site contact before flights begin so everyone knows where we will be operating.
• Establish basic safety boundaries and awareness of workers, visitors, vehicles, and active equipment.
• Adjust or pause operations if conditions on the ground change in a way that could affect safe flight. -
Regulatory And Policy Alignment
• Operate under FAA Part 107 rules for commercial drone work, including line of sight and altitude requirements.
• Respect facility, campus, and agency policies, including no fly zones or restricted areas you identify in advance.
• Discuss any locations near controlled or sensitive airspace so we are clear about what is appropriate and what is off limits. -
Permissions And Documentation
• Confirm property owner or authorized representative permission before flights are scheduled.
• Identify any internal approvals, access badges, or check in procedures required at your site.
• When needed, provide basic project documentation about the nature of the flights so your risk and security teams can review the plan.
How Drone And Aerial Services Work With Other Offerings
Aerial coverage is strongest when it is coordinated with your ground level media and documentation, so one project tells a complete story from every angle.
-
HDR Photography And Media Bundles
Drone coverage shows the big picture. HDR photography fills in the details on the ground.
Capturing aerial and ground level media together provides a unified set of visuals for listings, decks, reports, and campaigns.
This reduces the number of times a site has to be “camera ready” and keeps color, mood, and story consistent across all images and clips. -
3D Virtual Tours
3D Virtual Tours let viewers move through the interior of a space. Drone and aerial imagery show how that space fits into the larger site and surroundings.
Together, they create a smooth progression from an overhead view, to approach, to interior walkthrough.
This is especially powerful for properties, campuses, and facilities where context, access, and layout all matter. -
Floor Plans And Google Street View
Floor plans explain layout. Google Street View helps people find your entrance from Search and Maps. Drone imagery adds a wider view of the site, parking, and surrounding context.
Planning these together lets you guide users from map, to site overview, to entrance, to interior and plan level understanding.
This combination is useful for real estate, public facilities, campuses, and any location where wayfinding and context matter. -
Scan To BIM And CAD
When you are investing in detailed documentation, models, or as built information, aerial coverage can provide valuable context.
Drone imagery helps design, construction, and facilities teams see how structures sit on the site and relate to nearby elements, beyond what is visible in drawings alone.
Coordinating aerial work with Scan To BIM And CAD reduces the need for multiple visits and creates a richer visual record of the project.
Want To See Aerial Capture Used As Real Inspection Data?
Aerial imagery should do more than look impressive. Our sample package shows how a Property Masters 3D drone inspection engagement is delivered, including example orthophotos, roof and facade stills, inspection callouts, and a short overview clip. You see how the visuals are organized so that facility teams, adjusters, and owners can actually act on the information.
Review it with your asset management, restoration, or capital planning teams and decide how aerial capture can reduce site visits, support documentation for carriers and stakeholders, and keep risk and re-work under control.
Drone And Aerial Services Frequently Asked Questions
-
We operate under FAA Part 107, which sets rules for altitude, line of sight, and airspace.
Before any project, we review the site location, surrounding airspace, and nearby airports or heliports to understand what is permitted.
Some locations are straightforward, some require extra coordination, and a few are not appropriate for drone operations. We will tell you clearly which category your site falls into. -
Weather has a direct impact on safety and image quality.
High winds, poor visibility, and active rain or storms can make flights unsafe or reduce the value of the footage.
We plan for safe weather windows and may recommend adjusting dates or times if conditions do not support a safe, productive flight. -
We need basic site information, an understanding of your goals, and permission from the property owner or authorized representative.
If your site has its own safety, security, or access procedures, we will follow those as part of the planning process.
For controlled or sensitive environments, we may also ask for a point of contact in risk, safety, or facilities so everyone is aligned before flights are scheduled. -
The time on site depends on the size of the area, the number of views needed, and whether we are also capturing ground level media.
Some focused projects can be completed in under an hour. Larger or more complex sites, or projects with both photo and video requirements, may take several hours.
We will provide a realistic estimate once we understand your shot list and site conditions. -
Most projects are delivered within a few business days after capture, depending on the volume of imagery and any specific formatting requests.
If you have a deadline tied to a meeting, report, listing, or event, we will factor that into the schedule from the start.
Larger or recurring projects can be structured with a regular delivery cadence so your team knows when to expect updates. -
Safety and respect for ongoing operations come first.
We coordinate with your on site contact to understand where people and vehicles will be, and we plan flight paths that minimize overflight of active areas.
If conditions change or a planned flight path no longer feels appropriate, we adjust or pause operations rather than forcing a shot. -
Yes, and that is often the most efficient approach.
Drone coverage can be scheduled alongside HDR Photography And Media Bundles, 3D Virtual Tours, Floor Plans And Google Street View, or Scan To BIM And CAD work.
Combining services in this way reduces the number of site visits, limits disruption, and gives you a more complete visual record from both the air and the ground.
