Midtown Drone Inspections FAQ
Do you need special permits to scan inside Midtown office buildings?
No special NYC permits are required for interior scanning work. However, building access requires coordination with property management and a Certificate of Insurance (COI) with $1-2M liability coverage naming the building as additional insured. Freight elevator booking is typically required 48-72 hours in advance.
Can you fly drones for building inspections in Midtown Manhattan?
Yes, but Midtown is in FAA Class B airspace. We obtain LAANC authorization before every flight and comply with Remote ID requirements. Flights are typically scheduled during early morning hours (5-7 AM) for optimal conditions and minimal air traffic. We coordinate with building security and neighboring properties.
What is the typical turnaround time for scanning a Midtown office floor?
A typical 20,000-40,000 sqft office floor takes 4-8 hours to scan on-site. For Matterport virtual tours, delivery is within 24-48 hours. For 3D laser scanning with CAD deliverables, turnaround is typically 5-10 business days depending on LOD requirements and floor complexity.
How do you handle scanning in occupied Midtown offices?
We typically schedule scanning during off-hours (before 8 AM or after 6 PM) or weekends to minimize disruption. For occupied spaces, we use quiet equipment like Matterport Pro3 and work around furniture. For laser scanning, we can phase the work to scan sections during lunch hours or schedule around meeting room availability.
Do you work with Midtown property management companies for building-wide projects?
Yes, we work regularly with major Midtown property managers including SL Green, Vornado, RXR, and Brookfield for common area documentation, tenant improvement scanning, and building-wide digital twin projects. We offer volume pricing and can coordinate with your preferred access schedules.
