Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our Midwest 3D scanning and drone services.

What areas in the Midwest do you serve?

We provide comprehensive 3D scanning and drone services throughout the entire Midwest United States, covering 12 states. Our service area includes the Great Lakes region (Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin), Upper Midwest (Minnesota), Central States (Indiana, Iowa), Gateway Region (Missouri, Kansas), and Northern Plains (Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota). From Chicago to Minneapolis, Detroit to Kansas City, and Cleveland to Omaha, we have teams ready to deploy throughout the region.

How much do 3D scanning and drone services cost in the Midwest?

Pricing for Midwest projects varies based on scope, location, and deliverables. Standard 3D scanning projects typically start at $1,500-3,000, while drone photogrammetry and LiDAR surveying range from $2,000-10,000+ depending on site size. Large industrial facilities and agricultural operations may require specialized pricing. We provide free consultations and detailed quotes for all Midwest projects. Contact us at +1-347-998-1464 for a customized estimate.

What is your response time for Midwest projects?

We maintain 1-hour response time for quotes and consultations across the entire Midwest region. With teams and equipment strategically positioned in major metros including Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, and Kansas City, we can typically mobilize within 24-48 hours for most projects. Emergency and rush services are available 24/7 with expedited turnaround.

Are your drone pilots FAA certified for Midwest operations?

Yes, all our drone pilots hold FAA Part 107 commercial certifications. We maintain LAANC authorizations for controlled airspace throughout the Midwest, including Class B airspace around major airports such as Chicago O'Hare, Detroit Metropolitan, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and regional airports. We handle all regulatory compliance and special permissions for operations near restricted areas.

What scanning equipment do you use in the Midwest?

We deploy industry-leading equipment for Midwest projects including Trimble X12 and NavVis VLX3 terrestrial laser scanners for survey-grade accuracy, Matterport Pro3 cameras for immersive virtual tours, and DJI Matrice 400 RTK and Skydio X10 drones for aerial photogrammetry and inspections. All systems achieve plus/minus 2-4mm precision for 3D scanning. We also utilize specialized equipment for large manufacturing facilities and outdoor agricultural applications.

Can you scan automotive plants and manufacturing facilities?

Absolutely. Manufacturing facility documentation is one of our specialties in the Midwest, home to America's automotive industry and countless manufacturing operations. We have extensive experience scanning automotive assembly plants, supplier facilities, food processing plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing sites, and heavy industrial operations. Our team understands production schedules and can work around active operations to minimize disruption.

Do you provide agricultural and farmland surveying?

Yes, we offer comprehensive agricultural scanning and surveying services across the Midwest's farmland. Our services include precision agriculture mapping, grain elevator and storage facility documentation, irrigation system surveys, and crop analysis using aerial photogrammetry and LiDAR. We support operations from small family farms to large agricultural corporations throughout the corn belt and beyond.

What industries do you primarily serve in the Midwest?

The Midwest's diverse economy supports a wide range of industries we serve, including automotive manufacturing (especially in Michigan and Ohio), food and agriculture (throughout the region), pharmaceuticals (Indianapolis corridor), healthcare systems (Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, regional hospitals), logistics and distribution, insurance and financial services (Des Moines, Minneapolis), energy and utilities, and construction and development.

How do you handle winter weather conditions?

Midwest winters present unique challenges for 3D scanning and drone operations. Our team is experienced with cold-weather operations and maintains equipment rated for extreme temperatures. We coordinate scheduling around weather windows, utilize indoor scanning solutions when outdoor conditions are prohibitive, and have contingency plans for weather-related delays. Winter is often ideal for certain types of scanning when vegetation is minimal.
