Construction progress
The same view, every visit.
Weekly, biweekly or monthly flights from fixed angles, so each visit lines up with the last. Dated site maps, photo sets and short flyovers land in your account for owners, lenders, the crew and marketing.
What we capture
The whole site, on a schedule.
- Fixed-angle photo sets
- The same positions and headings every visit, so week twelve sits cleanly beside week two.
- Site maps
- A top-down map of the whole site each visit, with distances and areas measurable on screen.
- Short video flyovers
- A short clip each visit, in 4K, for owner updates, lender packets and marketing.
- Milestone and claim shots
- Extra angles when you need them, for a pay application, a dispute or a handover.
- Laydown, access and logistics
- Where materials sit, where trucks go and what is blocking what, seen from above.

Everything dated
Every file carries its flight date and sits in order, one timeline for the whole project.
How we fly
Fixed angles, fixed schedule.
On your schedule
Weekly, biweekly or monthly, set once and kept. If weather blocks a visit, we fly the next clear day and keep the angles the same.
Same angles, every time
Flight positions are saved on the first visit and repeated after that. What changes between photos is the site.
Safe around a working site
Flights are planned around crews and cranes, flown by FAA Part 107 certified pilots, and cleared with the superintendent before launch.
How often should we fly?
Monthly is a good default. Weekly or biweekly makes sense during fast phases, like steel or envelope. Pick a cadence and change it any time.
Can the owner and the contractor both have access?
Yes. Name who should see the project and we set up their access. Everyone sees the same dated sets.
Will the drone get in the way of the crew?
No. A visit takes a short window, flights are cleared with the superintendent first, and we stay clear of lifts and active work.
Can you fly before we break ground?
Yes. A pre-construction set gives you a baseline of existing conditions, which matters later if a neighbor claims damage.
