Priority Storm Response
Rapid deployment after severe weather, documenting damage before cleanup begins, while your insurance claim is still fresh.
Programs, Not One-Off Shoots
Recurring monitoring programs built around your operational calendar. Predictable scheduling, cumulative records, and pricing that makes sense for ongoing use.

Drone property documentation for Lake Norman homes, HOAs, builders, golf courses, and real estate listings. Structured aerial records, not one-off shoots.

After a storm, document course damage before cleanup and repairs begin. Priority scheduling within 24 hours of your call.
Recurring Property Inspections
Monthly or quarterly aerial property documentation for HOAs, property managers, and investors. Create a dated visual record of roofs, common areas, drainage, parking lots, exterior conditions, and storm-related changes over time.
Want a visual record before the next storm season? Start with a baseline flight.
Storm, Hail & Damage Documentation
Rapid aerial documentation after storms, hail, wind, fallen trees, or dock damage. Capture time-stamped photos and video before cleanup, repairs, or additional weather changes the scene.
Need documentation after a storm? Request a rapid-response flight before cleanup begins.
Construction Progress Monitoring
Scheduled drone progress flights for builders, contractors, owners, lenders, and investors. Document grading, foundations, framing, roofing, exterior work, and site progress with dated aerial records.
Many owners, lenders, and investors want clear visual progress updates during construction. Aerial documentation supports draw conversations and milestone reviews.
Drone Roof & Exterior Inspection
High-resolution aerial documentation of roofs, gutters, flashing, chimneys, siding, and exterior conditions. Useful for maintenance planning, pre-sale documentation, contractor estimates, and post-storm review.
Documentation is strongest when captured before cleanup, temporary repairs, or weather exposure changes the scene.
Real Estate Aerial Photography & Video
MLS-ready aerial photos and cinematic drone video for Lake Norman listings. Show lake views, docks, lot size, neighborhood setting, outdoor living spaces, and property scale.
Listings with aerial media perform better on lakefront properties. Book before your listing goes live.
Beyond photography: aerial mapping and 3D modeling
When you need more than photos, our drone mapping services deliver georeferenced aerial maps and photogrammetry-based 3D models built from overlapping high-resolution UAV captures.
Orthomosaic Property Maps
An orthomosaic is a georeferenced, flat aerial map stitched together from dozens of overlapping drone images. Unlike a single overhead photo, it is geometrically corrected, measurable, and can be layered into planning or GIS software.
- Site planning & boundary visualization
- Construction grading and earthwork oversight
- Large estate and multi-parcel documentation
- Shoreline change and erosion tracking over time
- Land surveying support and as-built reference
3D Property Models
Using photogrammetry, we reconstruct a navigable 3D model of your property from overlapping aerial imagery. The output captures roof geometry, terrain elevation, waterfront structures, and exterior features in a shareable, measurable format.
- As-built documentation for new construction
- Volumetric estimates for earthwork and grading
- Detailed roof and structure inspection review
- 3D terrain and elevation modeling
- Shareable models for contractors and engineers
