What Affects Pricing?
Property/Site Size
Larger properties require more flight time and processing. Sites over 5 acres may require multiple flights or full-day operations.
Accuracy Requirements
Standard mapping vs. survey-grade accuracy affects equipment and processing needs. We'll recommend the right approach for your needs.
Deliverable Type
Photos are faster than video. Orthomosaics require more processing than standard photos. LiDAR and 3D models add complexity.
Turnaround Time
Rush delivery (same-day or next-day) is available for an additional fee. Standard turnaround is 24-48 hours for most services.
Location & Airspace
Most Bay Area locations are included. Complex airspace near airports may require advance scheduling. Remote locations may have a travel fee.
Ongoing vs. One-Time
Regular documentation schedules (weekly, monthly) receive volume discounts. Multi-property portfolios get preferred pricing.
Common Questions
Why "starting at" pricing?
Every project is different. A 2-acre construction site is different from a 50-acre development. A single building inspection is different from a 10-building portfolio. We provide detailed quotes based on your specific needs rather than force-fitting projects into fixed packages.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Usually within a few hours during business hours. Tell us about your project and we'll respond with a detailed quote including timeline, deliverables, and exact pricing.
Do you offer discounts?
Yes. Ongoing documentation contracts, multi-property portfolios, and volume work all qualify for discounted rates. Ask about our construction documentation and property management programs.
