3D Scanning & Drone Services in the United Kingdom

We provide comprehensive 3D scanning and drone services throughout the United Kingdom, covering all four nations: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Our major service hubs include London and the South East, Manchester and the North West, Birmingham and the Midlands, Edinburgh and Glasgow in Scotland, Bristol in the South West, Leeds and Yorkshire, and Liverpool. We serve urban centers, rural areas, and offshore locations including North Sea platforms.

Yes, all our drone pilots hold Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) certifications for commercial operations in the UK. We maintain GVC (General VLOS Certificate) and A2 CofC qualifications, along with operational authorizations for complex missions. We handle all CAA permissions, NOTAM filings, and airspace coordination including operations near controlled airspace at Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and other major airports.

We offer 24-hour response times for initial consultations and quotes across the UK. For urgent inspections or emergency surveys, we can often mobilize within 48-72 hours depending on location. Standard project delivery ranges from 24-72 hours for most deliverables. Our network of technicians across England, Scotland, and Wales ensures rapid coverage nationwide.

Yes, all our Scan-to-BIM deliverables comply with UK BIM Level 2 standards and ISO 19650 requirements. We deliver models in Revit format with LOD specifications ranging from LOD 200 to LOD 400 based on project requirements. Our workflows align with PAS 1192 protocols and the UK BIM Framework guidance for public and private sector projects.

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

Absolutely. We specialize in heritage documentation compliant with Historic England and Historic Environment Scotland standards. Our non-contact scanning methods are ideal for Grade I and Grade II listed buildings, scheduled ancient monuments, and conservation areas. We provide detailed point clouds and BIM models that support conservation management plans and planning applications.

Yes, we provide full services throughout Scotland and Wales. In Scotland, we serve Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee, and surrounding regions, with particular expertise in oil and gas, renewable energy, and heritage projects. In Wales, we cover Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, and rural areas, supporting construction, tourism, and infrastructure sectors across both nations.

We serve diverse UK industries including construction and AEC firms, architecture and design practices, real estate and property management, heritage conservation, oil and gas (including North Sea operations), renewable energy (wind and solar), rail and transport (Network Rail certified), healthcare (NHS facilities), education, manufacturing, and retail. Each sector receives specialized workflows tailored to their specific requirements.

Our terrestrial laser scanning achieves plus/minus 2-4mm accuracy using Trimble X12 and NavVis VLX3 scanners. Drone photogrammetry delivers 1-2cm ground sampling distance (GSD) with RTK-enabled positioning. LiDAR drone surveys achieve centimeter-level absolute accuracy. All deliverables can be georeferenced to OSGB36, ETRS89, or project-specific coordinate systems.

THE FUTURE 3D combines enterprise-grade equipment with strict quality standards and 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. Our CAA-certified team understands UK regulations, BIM requirements, and heritage standards. We offer competitive pricing, rapid turnaround, and professional service that gives clients peace of mind. From London skyscrapers to Scottish castles, we deliver accurate, reliable results every time.
