Drone mapping, site measurements & construction progress

Drone Mapping & 3D Site Models in Florida

See existing conditions, review preliminary measurements and document site changes with orthomosaic maps, 3D models and repeat aerial capture.

Mapping + site measurementsConstruction progressThermal + visual inspections
Project examples

Orthomosaic imagery, 3D context and preliminary estimating.

Watch how real aerial imagery supports surface outlines, dimensions, elevation relationships and assumption-based material calculations.

Real project example

Measured Site Renovation

Review turf and infield outlines, dimensions and preliminary replacement quantities with the assumptions visible.

Real project example

Paved-Area Planning

Review a paved area, its edges, elevation relationships and an example resurfacing calculation.

About the example estimates

The quantities and dollar figures shown are estimates prepared for the specific projects in these videos using the assumptions stated in each example. They are not Sun State UAS service prices, supplier quotes, installed bids, or pricing for another property.

Sun State UAS provides aerial mapping, imagery, and preliminary site-measurement support. This does not replace a licensed boundary survey, engineered design, geotechnical evaluation, or the qualified professional responsible for final quantities and construction decisions.

Scope the files around the job

What your team can receive

Orthomosaic maps

A stitched aerial view of existing conditions for reviewing work areas, visible surfaces and site context.

3D site & surface models

Photogrammetry-based models for reviewing site shape, relative elevations and preliminary measurements.

Estimating & volumetric support

Scoped area, distance and stockpile measurements with the reference surface and assumptions identified.

Recurring progress views

Dated imagery and agreed viewpoints for comparing visible work across site visits.

Accuracy and deliverables depend on the capture plan and verified source data. Preliminary quantities are not final construction quantities. Design cut/fill comparisons require a suitable proposed surface and verified data; material depths and replacement scope must be confirmed for the project.

Work directly with Richard Hamilton to define the site, goal and delivery. We agree on the capture scope, timing and file organization before scheduling.

Need inspections or recurring views alongside mapping? Choose the service that fits your site.

Simple project path

From map pin to organized delivery

No flight is reserved by a form submission. Scope, conditions, quote, and scheduling must be confirmed.

Step 1

Share the site

Send the exact address or map pin, site contact, service needed, target date, and any access rules.

Step 2

Confirm the scope

We review the site, flight constraints, capture plan, deliverables, timing, and quote before scheduling.

Step 3

Coordinate the visit

The site contact confirms access, safety requirements, active work zones, and the best window for useful data.

Step 4

Capture and deliver

We complete the agreed flight when conditions allow, organize the approved outputs, and send them through the agreed delivery method.

Questions before scheduling

Commercial Drone Services FAQs

These answers are visible on the page and match the structured data.

Do you provide commercial drone services in Saint Petersburg and South Florida?

Sun State UAS LLC accepts commercial drone project inquiries in Saint Petersburg (St. Petersburg), Pinellas County and the Tampa Bay area, as well as Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade and Treasure Coast locations. Services include thermal roof and rooftop HVAC imaging, solar panel thermal inspections, construction progress monitoring, infrastructure documentation, and aerial photography and video. Send the exact site, service, target date and deliverables so we can confirm scope, flight conditions, travel and scheduling.

What should I send for a project review?

Send the exact site address or map pin, service needed, business goal, target date, site contact, access rules, and the deliverables your team expects.

Do you publish fixed commercial pricing?

No. Commercial scope can change with site size, travel, access, sensors, repeat visits, processing, deliverables, and scheduling. We review the mission before providing a quote.

Can you fly at every South Florida property?

No. The exact address, airspace, people, access, weather, obstructions, privacy, and current operating conditions must be reviewed first.

Are drone observations a replacement for an engineer, roofer, electrician, or surveyor?

No. Drone imagery documents visible or thermal conditions from the agreed viewpoint. Qualified professionals make diagnoses, code decisions, engineering conclusions, repairs, and any required survey determinations.

Can you return to the same site on a schedule?

Recurring capture can be scoped when repeat timing, site access, viewpoints, deliverables, and weather alternatives are agreed in advance.

Request a project review

Send the site. Tell us the decision.

Use the form for the exact location, inspection type, property, timeline, and contact details. Add the asset, expected deliverables, access rules, and the decision your team needs the imagery to support.

Submitting the form starts a review. It does not reserve a flight, confirm site suitability, or promise a result. Commercial pricing is prepared after the scope is reviewed.
