Fort Lauderdale Beach LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

Can you fly drones for inspections at Fort Lauderdale Beach?

Yes, but Fort Lauderdale Beach is under FAA Class B airspace from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL). We obtain LAANC authorization before every flight and comply with Remote ID requirements. We typically schedule flights during early morning hours (6-8 AM) when winds are calmer and beach activity is minimal.

Do you scan hotel rooms at Fort Lauderdale Beach resorts?

Yes, we work with major Fort Lauderdale Beach hotels including properties like the Conrad, Ritz-Carlton, and Westin for virtual tour creation and renovation documentation. We coordinate with hotel operations to capture rooms during the brief window between checkout and check-in, minimizing any impact on guest services.

What flood zone considerations affect scanning projects at Fort Lauderdale Beach?

Fort Lauderdale Beach is primarily in FEMA flood zones VE and AE - high-risk coastal areas. This means many buildings have specific elevation requirements and structural considerations. Our scanning captures base flood elevation markers and structural details important for insurance documentation and renovation planning in these coastal high-hazard zones.

How do ocean views and bright beach light affect Matterport scans?

Our Matterport Pro3 cameras use advanced HDR processing that handles the bright oceanfront light beautifully. For marketing-quality tours of beachfront condos and hotel rooms, we often recommend golden hour captures (early morning or late afternoon) when the ocean views are most dramatic and interior lighting balances naturally.

What is the typical turnaround for scanning a Fort Lauderdale Beach condo?

A typical 2,000-3,500 sqft beachfront condo takes 60-90 minutes to scan on-site. For Matterport virtual tours, you'll receive the finished tour within 24-48 hours. For 3D laser scanning with CAD deliverables, turnaround is typically 3-5 business days depending on project complexity and deliverable requirements.
