3D Scanning & Drone Services in the Middle East

We provide comprehensive 3D scanning and drone services throughout the Middle East, covering all GCC nations (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman) as well as Israel, Jordan, and the broader region. Our strongest presence is in the UAE (Dubai, Abu Dhabi) and Saudi Arabia (Riyadh, Jeddah, NEOM), supporting the region's massive construction and smart city initiatives. We deliver survey-grade scanning with local expertise and 24-hour response times across all markets.

Pricing varies by country and project scope, typically quoted in USD, AED, or SAR depending on location and client preference. Standard 3D scanning projects range from $3,000-12,000, while comprehensive facility documentation and drone surveying for megaprojects range from $10,000-50,000+ for larger developments. Premium projects like NEOM, The Line, or Expo sites are quoted individually based on scope and security requirements. We provide free consultations and detailed quotes for all Middle Eastern projects.

Our international response time is 24 hours for quotes and consultations across the Middle East. We can begin on-site work within 48-72 hours of project confirmation in most GCC countries, with established logistics channels to all major markets. For high-priority or emergency projects, we offer expedited mobilization. Most deliverables are completed within 5-14 business days depending on project complexity and review cycles.

Each Middle Eastern country has specific drone regulations. The UAE requires GCAA registration and permits; Saudi Arabia operates under GACA; Qatar has CAA Qatar; and other GCC nations have similar national authorities. Israel has strict CAA regulations, particularly for commercial operations. Our teams hold appropriate certifications and coordinate with local aviation authorities. We handle all regulatory compliance, security clearances, and flight permissions. Many Middle Eastern facilities require additional security protocols which we manage as part of project planning.

We deploy industry-leading equipment across the Middle East including Trimble X12 and NavVis VLX3 terrestrial scanners, Matterport Pro3 for virtual tours, DJI Matrice 400 RTK and Skydio X10 drones. All systems achieve survey-grade accuracy with plus/minus 2-4mm precision for scanning and centimeter-level accuracy for drone surveying. Our equipment is rated for extreme heat conditions (50°C+) and the dusty environments common throughout the region.

Yes, megaprojects and smart city documentation are core strengths. We have experience supporting large-scale developments including smart city initiatives, mixed-use megadevelopments, transportation hubs, and entertainment destinations. Our capabilities include progress monitoring, quality control documentation, as-built surveys, and digital twin creation for facility management. We understand the security requirements and coordination complexity of major Middle Eastern projects.

Yes, we maintain relationships with established local partners throughout the Middle East. This enables smooth equipment logistics, regulatory compliance, and cultural understanding. Our partners include surveying firms, construction consultants, and technology companies who can provide local support. For clients who prefer it, we can operate through joint venture arrangements that satisfy local content requirements common in GCC government contracts.

Standard deliverables include registered point clouds (E57, RCP, LAS formats), Matterport virtual tours with measurement tools, 2D CAD floor plans and elevations, orthomosaic aerial maps, and BIM models in Revit format. We provide technical reports, accuracy certifications, and project metadata in English and Arabic as needed. Deliverables can integrate with common Middle Eastern platforms and meet government documentation standards (including IFC BIM requirements).

We understand the heightened security requirements common to Middle Eastern projects. Our teams are experienced with background check processes, security briefings, and access protocols for sensitive facilities. We maintain appropriate insurance coverage and can sign NDAs and security agreements. For government and royal projects, we work within established security frameworks and coordinate with facility security teams throughout the engagement.

THE FUTURE 3D brings proven expertise across the Middle East's unique environment—from Dubai's towers to Saudi megaprojects, from Tel Aviv tech to Abu Dhabi's cultural landmarks. Our teams understand regional business culture, regulatory complexity, and the demands of premium projects. We offer 100% Satisfaction Guarantee on all work, combining enterprise-grade equipment with the service standards expected in the Middle East. Our experience with megaprojects, smart cities, and heritage sites makes us a trusted partner for the region's most demanding clients.
