Drone as a Service - Land Surveying Overview
What Data Can Drones Collects and How Does It Help AEC Professionals?
Drone surveys can help teams collect detailed site data faster, more safely, and at scale compared with traditional field methods. Drone as a Service quickly captures precise, centimeter-level data about any terrain. Leveraging AI-powered technology and a combination of advanced sensors and aerial imaging technologies, we collect site data in a fraction of the time:
-
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) captures millions of precise data points stored in a 3D point cloud. This data can be used to create data-rich terrain maps and various 3D models.
-
Photogrammetry utilizes 4K cameras to capture high-resolution video and 2D photographic images. Specialized software stitches the photographs together to produce a single, orthorectified image of the survey area, called an orthomosaic map.
-
Multispectral sensors capture data across various light spectra, including those invisible to the human eye. Multispectral data can analyze features including land cover and use, vegetation health, soil conditions, and environmental impacts.
-
Thermal sensors detect heat signatures and temperature variations. Thermal data can identify subsurface, infrastructure, or building issues, locate buried features, and aid environmental monitoring.
The resulting data can support services such as boundary and land-development mapping, volumetric measurements, 3D scanning and modeling, multispectral terrain mapping, and the creation of detailed terrain and elevation models for engineering and planning. Drone surveys can also capture human-made features and provide project teams with a comprehensive digital view of a site, helping improve planning, measurement, monitoring, and decision-making.
What Makes Drone as a Service Different?
-
End-to-End Service: Drone as a Service provides licensed pilots, registered drones, regulatory approvals, and end-to-end data management, handling every step of the surveying workflow so clients can focus on their projects.
-
Faster Data Collection: Drones can survey a site in hours instead of days, with comprehensive site data typically delivered within 24–48 hours, helping organizations reduce field time and accelerate planning and decision-making.
-
Personnel Safety: Our drones reduce the need for personnel to work at height or in hazardous environments, safely accessing extreme heights, busy roads, difficult terrain, and damaged or compromised infrastructure.
-
Tailored and Scalable: Drone as a Service leverages a diverse drone fleet, advanced sensors, and imaging technologies to deliver tailored solutions that meet each project’s unique needs, regardless of site size or location. With operations spanning 27 locations across the US, Canada, Ireland, the UK, and Australia, the company combines advanced drone capabilities with the on-the-ground expertise of local surveyors.

Cartes.Archi
Cartes.Archi is a French web app that gathers the official data on a land parcel in about 30 seconds. Architects type an address and get cadastral boundaries, local zoning (PLU) rules, natural and technological risks, recent property sales, energy performance certificates and 3D terrain, each linked to its public source. It was built by a Lyon architect for feasibility studies and exports sourced PDFs and DXF files for use in Archicad, Revit or SketchUp.
