Drone LiDAR and reality capture on the Alabama Gulf Coast

Baldwin County is a short run from Santa Rosa Beach, and the building stock and the ground conditions are close cousins to the Panhandle. Coastal condominium towers, low lying commercial sites, and a lot of land changing hands.

01/Local conditions

Same coast, same problems, different state line.

Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have the same occupied high rise documentation problem as 30A and Destin. Buildings full of guests, exposure on the Gulf side, and boards making capital decisions about conditions nobody has measured recently.

Inland Baldwin County is the fastest growing part of the region, which means a steady stream of vacant land topo, subdivision base mapping and drainage work on ground that is flat, wet in places, and unforgiving vertically. That is exactly the case for LiDAR over photogrammetry.

Airspace here runs off Mobile Regional, Jack Edwards in Gulf Shores, the Mobile Downtown field, and the military traffic that shares the region. Same planning discipline as the Panhandle, requested in advance.

05/Questions

Common questions about this area.

How quickly can you get to a site in Alabama Gulf Coast?

Panhandle sites are usually within a few days and often sooner. Alabama Gulf Coast runs close behind. Tampa Bay and Southwest Florida are scheduled trips, so booking ahead or bundling sites is the way to keep it efficient.

Do you charge mobilization for this area?

Mobilization is part of every scope and it is the reason very small isolated sites cost more per acre than they should. If you have several parcels in the region, putting them on one trip is worth planning and we will help you do it.

Can you handle controlled airspace here?

Yes, and on this coast that is most of the map. Authorizations are requested during planning rather than the morning of the flight, and we will tell you during scoping if a site has an airspace constraint that affects the schedule.

Do you work under other firms in this market?

Constantly. White label capture for surveyors, engineers and architects is a large share of what we do, and the deliverable goes out under your name.

05/Next step

Start with one site.

Send the boundary and the deliverable you need. We scope it, fly it, and return the data in your format, typically in under seven days.
