Building Stock Profile
Tallahassee's building stock includes an estimated 20+ condominium and apartment buildings above three stories, plus approximately 400+ commercial structures. The predominant construction era is 1960s-2000s with state government buildings and university campus, with facades primarily consisting of brick veneer, reinforced concrete, stucco, precast concrete. As Florida's capital, Tallahassee's government buildings and university campus structures have heightened safety requirements — drone inspection supports the state's own compliance with the building safety standards it legislates.
Regulatory Requirements
Florida's SB-4D legislation requires milestone structural inspections for buildings 3+ stories at 30 years from the Certificate of Occupancy, with subsequent inspections every 10 years. An estimated 15+ buildings in Tallahassee are approaching or have passed this threshold.

Our Process
How 3D Mapping Works in Tallahassee
From initial consultation to PE-certified report delivery — here is how we execute 3d mapping for Leon County properties.
Consultation & Planning
We assess your Tallahassee building's specifics — height, facade materials, access constraints, and local airspace requirements. A detailed flight plan is created and all FAA authorizations secured.
Drone Data Capture
FAA Part 107 certified pilots deploy commercial drones equipped with 50MP cameras to systematically capture your building's exterior surfaces. A typical mapping flight takes 4-8 hours depending on building size.
AI Analysis & Engineering Review
Captured imagery is processed through our AI defect detection pipeline, classifying up to 20 defect types with GPS coordinates. A Florida-licensed Professional Engineer reviews the findings and prepares the inspection report.
Report Delivery & Action Plan
Your PE-certified report is delivered promptly. It includes high-resolution imagery, 3D models, point clouds, and printable orthomosaics — everything Leon County engineers and property managers need to take action.

Frequently Asked Questions
Formats?
LAS/LAZ, OBJ/FBX, DXF/DWG, RVT, GeoTIFF, PDF.
Can 3D mapping document existing conditions for renovation planning?
Yes. Our as-built models capture the building's actual geometry, which architects and engineers use as the foundation for renovation design. This is particularly valuable when original construction documents are unavailable or no longer reflect the building's current state.
What ground control point requirements exist for North Florida projects?
We place and survey ground control points to achieve sub-inch model accuracy. The number of GCPs depends on building size and site complexity. Our team handles all ground control setup and survey as part of the mapping scope.
What accuracy does your 3D mapping achieve?
Our photogrammetry processing delivers models with 1-inch (25mm) accuracy. This is verified with ground control points and meets the precision requirements for renovation design, structural assessment, and BIM integration.
What file formats do you deliver?
Standard deliverables include LAS/LAZ point clouds, OBJ/FBX mesh models, DXF/DWG CAD drawings, GeoTIFF orthoimagery, and PDF elevation profiles. Revit (RVT) files are available for BIM integration projects.
