Flatiron Dock-Based Drone Operations FAQ

Can you document tech office build-outs in the Flatiron District?

Yes, we regularly work with tech companies and their architects on tenant improvements. Our laser scanning creates accurate existing conditions for design, and our Scan data integrates with architect and contractor workflows. The open loft floor plans common in Flatiron are efficient to scan.

What equipment do you use for large Flatiron office floors?

For large open floor plans typical in Flatiron (10,000-40,000 sqft), we use NavVis VLX for speed when image quality is priority, or Leica RTC360 when survey-grade accuracy is required. The high ceilings in loft buildings require strategic scanner placement. We can typically scan a full floor in one day.

Can you scan the Flatiron Building itself?

The Flatiron Building is an individually landmarked icon. We can document interior spaces with building management coordination and capture the exterior using ground-based scanning and drone photogrammetry with LAANC authorization. Any work involving the landmark requires appropriate permissions.

How quickly can you deliver documentation for tenant improvements?

For typical Flatiron tenant improvement projects, we can have raw scan data delivered within 24 hours of site work. Basic floor plans take 3-5 business days. Full Scan data delivery depends on project requirements but typically 1-2 weeks. We understand the fast pace of commercial leasing and can expedite when needed.

Do you work with coworking operators in the Flatiron District?

Yes, we work with coworking operators for initial space documentation, build-out planning, marketing tours, and ongoing facility documentation. The flexible, tech-oriented character of Flatiron makes it a coworking hub. We can coordinate with your schedules and member access requirements.
