Tokyo Aircraft & Helicopter Capture FAQ

What 3D scanning services do you offer in Tokyo?
We provide comprehensive 3D scanning services throughout the Tokyo metropolitan area including laser scanning, Matterport virtual tours, drone photogrammetry, Scan-to-BIM data, digital twins, and as-built documentation. Our services support supertall tower construction, transit infrastructure, heritage preservation, and seismic assessment.
Do you support seismic assessment scanning?
Yes. Tokyo's post-2011 building standards require rigorous structural documentation. Our 3D scanning captures existing building conditions at ±2-4mm accuracy for seismic evaluation, retrofit design, and disaster resilience planning — critical for Tokyo's earthquake preparedness.
Can you scan heritage sites in Tokyo?
Yes. Tokyo's temples, shrines, Edo-era structures, and historic bridges require precision heritage documentation. Our scanning captures traditional architectural details for preservation planning, cultural heritage compliance, and digital archive creation.
What drone regulations apply in Tokyo?
Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) regulates drone operations. Tokyo has extensive restricted airspace including Haneda and Narita airports and densely inhabited districts. All commercial flights require permits under the Aviation Act. Our team manages all MLIT requirements.
