Downtown Brooklyn LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

Can you scan Brooklyn's tallest buildings in Downtown Brooklyn?
Yes, we work regularly in Downtown Brooklyn's high-rises including buildings in the 40-70+ story range. Our equipment and methods are designed for modern high-rise construction. For exterior documentation of supertall buildings like Brooklyn Tower (1,066 feet), we use professional-grade drones with appropriate FAA authorization.
Do you work with government facilities in Downtown Brooklyn?
Yes, we have experience with government and institutional facilities. Downtown Brooklyn has numerous city agencies, courts, and educational institutions. Government projects typically require security coordination, background checks, and specific documentation formats. We're familiar with these requirements and can accommodate government protocols.
What's involved in scanning a MetroTech office building?
MetroTech office scanning typically involves large floor plates (20,000-40,000+ sqft) in modern high-rise buildings. We coordinate with building management for freight elevator access and loading. Using NavVis mobile scanning, we can capture a full floor efficiently with minimal disruption to tenants. Typical turnaround is 48-72 hours for as-built deliverables.
How do you handle drone work near Downtown Brooklyn's tall buildings?
Downtown Brooklyn requires careful drone flight planning due to building density and heights. We obtain FAA LAANC authorization, coordinate with building management, and use professional-grade equipment (DJI Matrice 350 RTK) for precision work on tall structures. For LL11 facade inspections, we plan flights to avoid traffic and pedestrian areas.
What types of projects are most common in Downtown Brooklyn?
The most common projects are commercial office scanning for tenant fit-out and space planning, new construction documentation, high-rise facade inspections (LL11 compliance), and residential unit marketing for new development sales. The area's rapid development also creates demand for construction progress monitoring and as-built verification.
