Columbus LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

What 3D scanning services are available in Columbus, Ohio?

We deploy FARO Focus Premium, Leica RTC360, NavVis VLX 3, and Matterport Pro3 systems for projects ranging from Ohio Statehouse preservation documentation to large-scale industrial facility surveys supporting the region's semiconductor and data center construction boom.
How is 3D scanning used in Columbus's construction boom?
Columbus's unprecedented development wave—including Intel's $20 billion semiconductor plant, AWS's $10 billion data center expansion, and 4.2 million square feet of industrial space under construction—relies on 3D scanning for as-built documentation, construction progress monitoring, MEP clash detection, and quality assurance. Our services help keep these mega-projects on schedule and within specification.
Can you scan historic properties in German Village?
We are fully equipped to document historic properties in German Village and across Columbus's designated historic districts. Columbus operates five architectural review commissions requiring Certificates of Appropriateness for exterior alterations. Our millimeter-accurate 3D scanning provides the precise documentation needed for these applications and for Ohio Historic Preservation Tax Credit (up to 25%) projects.
