Frequently Asked Questions

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

What areas in Portugal do you serve?

We provide comprehensive 3D scanning and drone services throughout Portugal, covering all mainland districts and autonomous regions. Our primary service areas include Greater Lisbon, Porto Metro, Centro Region (Coimbra), Algarve, Alentejo, and the autonomous regions of Madeira and Azores. Our Lisbon base allows rapid deployment across the country via Alfa Pendular high-speed rail and domestic flights.

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

Pricing varies based on project scope, location, and deliverables. Standard 3D scanning projects start around €1,200-2,500, while drone photogrammetry and LiDAR surveying range from €1,800-8,000+ for larger sites. Heritage preservation projects requiring DGPC approval may require additional specialized deliverables. We provide free consultations and detailed quotes (orçamentos) for all Portuguese projects.

What is your response time for Portugal projects?

We offer 24-hour response time for Portuguese projects. For consultations and quotes, we typically respond within hours during business days. Project mobilization depends on scope, but most scanning projects can begin within 48-72 hours. Island projects (Madeira, Azores) may require additional travel coordination but maintain our 24-hour response commitment.

Are your drone pilots AAN certified for Portugal operations?

Yes, all our drone pilots hold AAN (Autoridade Nacional da Aviação) certifications required for commercial UAS operations in Portugal. We maintain all necessary authorizations for controlled airspace including operations near Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport, Porto Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport, and restricted heritage zones. We handle all flight plan submissions and AAN coordination.

What scanning equipment do you use in Portugal?

We deploy industry-leading equipment including Trimble X12 and NavVis VLX3 terrestrial scanners, Matterport Pro3 for virtual tours, DJI Matrice 400 RTK and Skydio X10 drones for aerial work. All systems achieve survey-grade accuracy with plus/minus 2-4mm precision for scanning and centimeter-level accuracy for drone surveying. Our equipment meets Portuguese topographic standards.

Can you document UNESCO World Heritage sites in Portugal?

Yes, we specialize in heritage preservation documentation meeting DGPC (Direção-Geral do Património Cultural) requirements. Portugal has 17 UNESCO World Heritage sites including Belém Tower, Jerónimos Monastery, Porto Ribeira, Sintra cultural landscape, and the Douro Valley vineyards. Our deliverables support restoration planning, structural monitoring, and cultural preservation applications.

Do you work with Golden Visa and real estate investment projects?

Absolutely. Portugal's Golden Visa program has made real estate documentation critical for international investors. We provide comprehensive virtual tours, accurate floor plans, and property documentation for investment properties across Lisbon, Porto, Algarve, and approved interior regions. Our deliverables support investor due diligence and property marketing.

What is your turnaround time for deliverables?

Standard turnaround is 24-72 hours for point clouds and basic floor plans, 3-5 business days for detailed BIM models and CAD documentation, and 1-2 weeks for complex heritage preservation packages. Rush delivery is available for urgent projects. Deliverables can be provided in metric units with Portuguese coordinate systems (ETRS89/PT-TM06) for seamless integration.

Do you serve Portugal's island territories?

Yes, we provide full service coverage for Madeira (Funchal, Porto Santo) and the Azores (São Miguel, Terceira, Faial, and other islands). Island projects include tourism property documentation, heritage site scanning, agricultural mapping, and infrastructure surveys. Island projects require flight coordination but maintain our professional service standards.
