Building Stock Profile

Doral's building stock includes an estimated 40+ condominium and apartment buildings above three stories, plus approximately 800+ commercial structures. The predominant construction era is 2000s-2020s (Doral is one of Florida's newest cities, incorporated 2003), with facades primarily consisting of stucco, glass curtain wall, EIFS, reinforced concrete. Doral sits directly adjacent to Miami International Airport with some of the lowest LAANC altitude ceilings in the state — only drone operators with extensive Class B experience can safely conduct building inspections here.

Regulatory Requirements

Doral buildings are subject to both Florida's SB-4D milestone inspection at 30 years and Miami-Dade County's Miami-Dade 40-Year Building Recertification. Most Doral buildings are under 25 years old, so SB-4D requirements are approaching for the earliest developments.

Our Process

How Construction Works in Doral


From initial consultation to PE-certified report delivery — here is how we execute construction monitoring for Miami-Dade County properties.

01

Consultation & Planning

We assess your Doral building's specifics — height, facade materials, access constraints, and local airspace requirements. A detailed flight plan is created and all FAA authorizations secured.

02

Drone Data Capture

FAA Part 107 certified pilots deploy commercial drones equipped with 50MP cameras to systematically capture your building's construction site. A typical mapping flight takes 4-8 hours depending on building size.

03

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 progress report.

04

Report Delivery & Action Plan

Your PE-certified report is delivered promptly. It includes high-resolution imagery, AI defect classifications, repair priorities, and cost estimates — everything Miami-Dade County engineers and property managers need to take action.

Frequently Asked Questions


How quickly can you start monitoring a new project?

From our Miami base, we can begin monitoring within 24 hours of engagement. Flight scheduling aligns with your project milestones.

What deliverables does the lender receive from each construction monitoring flight?

Each flight produces georeferenced orthomosaic imagery, annotated progress photos keyed to draw schedule milestones, and a DroneDeploy-hosted site model your lender can review independently. We also provide a one-page progress summary with percent-complete estimates per trade.

Do you need FAA authorization for construction sites near MIA in Miami-Dade?

Yes. Many Miami-Dade construction sites fall within Class B airspace controlled by Miami International Airport. We secure LAANC grid authorization and coordinate NOTAMs as needed. This is handled entirely by our operations team — your project manager receives the confirmed flight window in advance.
