Serving Golden from Arvada
Aerial progress documentation, facade and roof inspections, 3D mapping and thermal imaging for Golden contractors, owners and developers. Flown by a former construction superintendent who knows how foothills sites behave.
Golden Projects
Golden sites come with slopes, elevation change and tight valleys that are hard to document from the ground. That is where a drone earns its keep.
Services
Every flight is planned around the deliverable your team actually needs, not a generic set of photos.
Scheduled flights from the same positions and angles every visit, so owners, lenders and your own team can see real change over time.
Learn moreClose, high resolution views of envelopes, parapets and roofs without lifts, swing stages or anyone on a ladder.
Learn moreGeo-referenced maps, textured 3D models, point clouds and volumetrics with sub-centimeter accuracy, ready for engineering review.
Learn moreHeat signatures that point to moisture intrusion, insulation gaps and electrical issues before they turn into expensive repairs.
Learn moreFlight Planning
Terrain and weather shape every flight in Golden. Planning for both is what keeps the data accurate.
Flights are planned to follow the terrain, so image overlap and accuracy hold up on slopes and not just on flat ground.
Wind off the foothills can build quickly in the afternoon. We schedule for the calmest window so the data comes back clean.
Airspace is checked for every address, with FAA authorization secured wherever it is required, and flight paths avoid roads, trails and people.
Who This Is For
How It Works
We talk through the project, the deliverables you need and any access, airspace or safety requirements.
Planned, repeatable flight paths capture the site the same way every time, coordinated with your superintendent.
Processed maps, models, imagery or reports delivered in formats your team already works in. See the full process.
FAQ
We are based in Arvada, a short drive from Golden. Golden and the surrounding foothills are a regular part of our service area.
Yes. Flights are planned to follow the terrain, and we provide sub-centimeter level work ready for engineering review. More on mapping and 3D modeling.
We watch the forecast ahead of time and move the flight to the next good window rather than fly in conditions that would hurt data quality.
Weekly, biweekly or monthly, matched to your project milestones. Each visit follows the same flight plan so every set of images lines up with the last.
Usually not. We coordinate access and a quick safety check with your superintendent and handle the rest.
