Notable LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping Applications in Sacramento

California State Capitol — Built between 1860 and 1874, this neoclassical seat of government with its grand dome and legislative chambers is an ideal candidate for comprehensive 3D heritage documentation and facility management scanning.
Old Sacramento Historic District — This preserved Gold Rush-era waterfront district with cobblestone streets, the Eagle Theater, and underground pre-flood street levels presents unique scanning challenges perfectly suited for multi-level 3D documentation.
Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament — This 1880s landmark featuring intricate ceilings, marble altars, and stained glass benefits from high-resolution laser scanning to document its ornamental details for ongoing preservation.
Crocker Art Museum — Housed in elegant historic architecture with a modern wing addition, this museum exemplifies the type of heritage-meets-contemporary project where 3D scanning bridges preservation and new construction.

Sacramento LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

What 3D scanning services are available in Sacramento?
The Future 3D offers comprehensive 3D laser scanning, drone aerial surveys, scan-to-BIM modeling, and LiDAR surveying throughout the Sacramento metropolitan area. We deploy FARO Focus Premium and Leica RTC360 scanners with a guaranteed 1-hour response time for time-sensitive projects.
How is 3D scanning used for seismic retrofit projects in Sacramento?
California mandates that hospitals be operational post-earthquake by 2030, with a structural withstand deadline by mid-2026. Projects like the UC Davis California Tower are replacing older facilities to meet these requirements. Our 3D scanning captures precise existing conditions for seismic engineering analysis, retrofit design, and construction verification.
Can you scan historic buildings in Old Sacramento?
We are fully equipped to document Old Sacramento's complex historic structures, including underground street-level spaces from the city's pre-flood era. Our laser scanners capture sub-millimeter detail of Gold Rush-era architecture, supporting preservation compliance for the district's 110 National Register properties.
What role does drone scanning play in Sacramento construction?
Our DJI Matrice 350 RTK drones provide aerial LiDAR and photogrammetry for large-scale projects across Sacramento, from master-planned communities like Folsom Ranch to infrastructure projects like the Blue Line light rail extension to Elk Grove. We coordinate all FAA authorizations including proximity to Sacramento International Airport.
How does scan-to-BIM support Sacramento's mixed-use developments?
Sacramento is experiencing a boom in mixed-use projects combining residential, office, retail, and entertainment spaces. Scan-to-BIM converts laser scan data into intelligent Revit models that architects use for clash detection, spatial planning, and MEP coordination—critical for the multi-billion-dollar downtown developments underway.
What types of construction projects does The Future 3D serve in Sacramento?
We serve Sacramento's full construction spectrum: healthcare facilities like the $3.75B UC Davis California Tower, mixed-use developments downtown, master-planned residential communities, Gold Rush-era historic preservation, light rail infrastructure, and commercial office conversions. Our equipment handles any project scale.
