Building & Façade Inspections
High-resolution drone imaging of buildings and skyscrapers in hours, not weeks. Built for NYC Local Law 11 and façade condition assessments without scaffolding.
Learn more →AeroSpect is a commercial drone company built for high-stakes projects: building inspections, mapping, surveying, and aerial photography flown by FAA Part 107 certified pilots with NYC airspace authorization.
There’s a wide gap between flying a drone and running a repeatable commercial operation that holds up to an engineer’s stamp, a lender’s review, or a city inspector’s checklist. AeroSpect sits firmly on the commercial side. Every flight is planned around an FAA Part 107 waiver where the airspace requires one, logged for chain of custody, and tied to a deliverable a stakeholder can actually use.
Our commercial drone operators have flown inspections on Manhattan high-rises, mapped active construction sites in Brooklyn, and documented utility corridors across the Northeast. We carry $10 million in general liability coverage and provide certificates of insurance named to your project before we ever leave the ground. That combination, real certification plus real coverage, is why developers, AEC firms, and Fortune 500 facilities teams keep us on their vendor list.
One vendor, one insurance certificate, one data portal covering the full inspection-to-deliverable workflow. Each service below links to a dedicated page with sample outputs and specs.

Learn more →Recurring aerial progress capture that gives owners and GCs a time-stamped record of the site, flags issues early, and keeps remote stakeholders aligned.
Learn more →High-density laser scanning that penetrates vegetation and produces survey-grade 3D as-built models, ready for CAD and BIM workflows.
Learn more →Aerial photogrammetry and topographic mapping for site planning, volumetric stockpile measurement, and acreage no ground crew can cover as fast.
Learn more →Thermal imaging by ITC-certified staff that surfaces hidden moisture, insulation gaps, and electrical faults invisible to standard photography.
Learn more →Marketing-grade stills, 360° tours, and cinematic video for real estate launches, brand campaigns, and pre-construction sales.
Learn more →Progress monitoring, volumetric earthwork, and as-built verification for GCs, owners, and developers.
Solar arrays, transmission corridors, and substation inspections that keep crews off energized assets.
Aerial marketing media and façade condition data for portfolios, REITs, and new development sales.
Multispectral crop health mapping and acreage surveys for growers and land-management firms.
Commercial results depend on the right sensor for the job, not one drone forced onto every project. Our fleet spans high-resolution RGB cameras, radiometric thermal payloads, and survey-grade LiDAR units paired with RTK positioning for centimeter accuracy.
Every pilot holds an active FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate, and our NYC work runs under airspace authorizations coordinated through LAANC and direct FAA waivers where controlled airspace demands it. Thermography is handled by ITC Level II certified operators, and all data lands in a single inspection portal so your team reviews imagery, point clouds, and reports in one place instead of chasing files across email.
Tell us the asset, the deliverable, and the deadline. You get a fixed quote and a flight plan, usually within one business day.
We secure airspace clearance, issue your certificate of insurance, and coordinate site access so flight day runs clean.
Certified pilots collect imagery, thermal data, or LiDAR on site, typically without scaffolding, lifts, or shutting your operation down.
Processed reports, 3D models, and annotated visuals land in your portal within 24 to 48 hours of the flight.
Yes. Every pilot holds a current FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate. For flights in NYC’s controlled airspace we operate under LAANC authorizations and direct FAA waivers, so your project stays compliant from planning through delivery.
We hold $10 million in general liability coverage and will issue a project-specific certificate of insurance, with your entity named as additional insured, before the first flight.
Our roster ranges from independent developers and AEC firms to Fortune 500 facilities and energy teams. Construction, utilities, real estate, and agriculture make up the bulk of recurring work.
Standard inspection reports, maps, and 3D models are delivered within 24 to 48 hours of the flight. Rush turnarounds are available when a deadline or safety issue can’t wait.
Yes. We run scheduled construction-monitoring flights and multi-site programs across NYC and other major markets, with consistent capture settings so the data stays comparable over time.
NYC is our home base, but we mobilize to markets including San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and Detroit for larger commercial engagements.
