Design District LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

Can you scan luxury retail showrooms in the Design District?
Yes, we work with luxury brands throughout the Design District for showroom documentation, renovation planning, and marketing tours. We coordinate with store management for access during closed hours and understand the high standards luxury retailers require for visual documentation.
How do you handle the high-end finishes in Design District spaces?
Our laser scanners and Matterport cameras capture fine details of designer finishes, custom installations, and architectural elements. We use HDR processing to properly represent reflective surfaces, metallic finishes, and carefully designed lighting that characterize Design District spaces.
Are drone flights possible in the Design District?
Drone flights require LAANC authorization due to Class B airspace from Miami International Airport. We schedule flights for early morning hours when pedestrian traffic is lowest. For many projects, ground-based documentation is more practical given the airspace restrictions.
Do you work with galleries and art spaces?
Yes, we document galleries and art spaces throughout the Design District including the ICA Miami and De la Cruz Collection area. Our 3D capture preserves exhibition layouts and can support virtual exhibition experiences. We coordinate timing to avoid disrupting gallery operations and visitor experience.
What's involved in documenting a Design District restaurant for renovation?
Restaurant documentation typically involves scanning during closed hours (between lunch and dinner or early morning). For a typical Design District restaurant (2,500-6,000 sqft), we capture existing conditions in 3-4 hours. Deliverables include point clouds, floor plans, and BIM-conversion-ready scan data for renovation design and MEP coordination.
