St. Louis LiDAR Drone Surveying & Mapping FAQ

What 3D scanning services are available in St. Louis?
Our team serves St. Louis with full-spectrum 3D laser scanning, drone inspection, scan-to-BIM, and LiDAR surveying. We deploy FARO Focus Premium, Leica RTC360, and NavVis VLX 3 systems for projects ranging from historic landmark documentation to industrial facility surveys along the Mississippi River corridor.
How does 3D scanning help with St. Louis historic preservation?
St. Louis's Cultural Resources Office reviews exterior alterations in local historic districts, City Landmarks, and preservation review areas. Our 3D laser scanning creates precise digital records that support design review applications, document existing conditions for rehabilitation tax credit projects, and provide baseline data for ongoing preservation monitoring.
Can you fly drones for building inspections in St. Louis?
Yes, we are equipped to conduct drone inspections throughout St. Louis using our DJI Matrice 350 RTK fleet. St. Louis does not require city permits for drone operations, though we comply with all FAA Part 107 regulations and obtain LAANC authorization for flights within Lambert International Airport's Class B airspace.
What types of construction projects in St. Louis benefit from 3D scanning?
St. Louis's $8.9 billion infrastructure investment cycle—including freight corridor improvements, industrial park developments, bridge projects, and port upgrades—all benefit from 3D scanning for as-built documentation, progress monitoring, and clash detection. Commercial renovations and adaptive reuse projects in the West Bottoms redevelopment area also rely on scan-to-BIM workflows.
How fast can a 3D scanning team reach St. Louis?
We maintain a 1-hour response time for client inquiries and can rapidly mobilize scanning teams to St. Louis. Our equipment—including FARO Focus Premium, Leica RTC360, Matterport Pro3, and DJI Matrice 350 RTK—is maintained in deployment-ready condition for immediate project starts.
Do you provide scan-to-BIM services for St. Louis architects and engineers?
Absolutely. We deliver complete scan-to-BIM services converting point cloud data into detailed Revit models for St. Louis architecture and engineering firms. This supports renovation design, MEP coordination, and as-built documentation for the city's extensive inventory of historic commercial buildings and industrial facilities.
