Aerial Drone Surveying

Aerial drones have made dramatic changes to many industries, and the surveying world is no exception. Aerial drone surveying provides Polysurveying with a new, exciting means of data collection, measurement, and 3-dimensional boundary analysis. Drone surveying is a cost-effective surveying technology that provides unprecedented accuracy to the dynamic surveying industry.

Utilizing both LIDAR and photogrammetry drone technology to complete ALTA, Topographic, or an As-built survey has provided survey accuracy, speed and efficiency that allows our team to survey properties better with aid of these new advances. It also allows for a multitude of planning features from aerial overlays performed at the time of the survey to evaluate future planning and expansion of your next project. These advancements continue to provide relief to some of the more traditional ways topographic surveys were done in the past which required our team to physically cut lines through dense woods and swamps to accurately map the contours of the land on grids at usually 50 to 100 feet. Our team now is being afforded an opportunity to move onto other projects and not be worn down with physical exhaustion of previous methods. In using the LIDAR system we are able to obtain millions of points that give a more accurate depiction of truly what is going on with the lay of the land for engineers to design from and getting our project to design in half the time of traditional methods.

For ALTA surveys we are able to locate physical features on the ground from the sky and provide a more accurate depiction to our drafting team when working up one of these surveys. We can map buildings, parking areas, access, walks, drives, utilities, etc with the aid of additional survey techniques to save time and money for our clients. Our timelines and efficiency have made tremendous steps forward in recent years to allow for turnkey solutions that meet and exceed our clients needs.

ALTA Survey for Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and Georgia

An ALTA Survey is a specialized survey of a property that adheres to strict standards developed by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS). An essential part of any legal ownership of land, the boundaries of a property must be properly and professionally delineated, making note of any easements or public right-of-way, or any other addition to or deletion from the property throughout the course of the parcel’s history. Clearly defining the boundaries of a property prevents any dispute over where one parcel ends and another begins. An ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey is a foundational component of any real estate due diligence period and is necessary to obtain comprehensive Title Insurance for any property as a buyer, seller, or owner.
