LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping in Key Largo: Local Expertise

Key Largo, the northernmost and largest island in the Florida Keys, is the "Dive Capital of the World" anchored by John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park — the first undersea park in the US. The unincorporated community's economy centers on dive tourism, sport fishing, and marine-related construction, all subject to Monroe County building codes with 180 mph wind resistance and FEMA coastal flood zone requirements. The Overseas Highway (US-1) is the sole land access, making infrastructure resilience critical.
