Drone Survey

DRONE Surveys

Drones take many videos and high-quality photos as they move in and around buildings at different altitudes. In a single mission, hundreds of data points can be captured for later use. That data provides a historical record to aid in insurance claims, maintenance and future renovations. At SRI, we contract with FAA-certified pilots to complete drone surveys of residential and commercial properties. We use Catalogger image management software to easily store, search and access image and video data.

FAA-Certified Drone Pilots

All of our contractors' pilots have passed the FAA's Small UAS Rule (Part 107) examination and maintain their flying credentials by passing recurrent examinations every two years.

Image Management with Catalogger

With a simple interface, Catalogger allows users to quickly access and share drone survey photos to guide maintenance, repair, and improvement projects. Image data is stored on the cloud and can be viewed on multiple devices via a password-protected portal.

Mission Planning With Recorded GPS Coordinates

Allows for repeated flights along the same path. Missions can be scheduled periodically to observe time-dependent changes such as concrete deterioration, roof wear and tear, hurricane damage, and modifications to surrounding structures.
