Transparent, Project-Based Pricing
Every site is different — so every quote is too. Here’s exactly how we scope and price your drone survey, with no flat-rate guesswork and no surprises. Based in West Fargo, ND, serving clients nationwide.
We start with your site size, location, and the deliverables you need. Acreage, terrain, and access all shape the flight plan.
LiDAR, GPR, sonar, multispectral, or thermal — the sensor your project requires is the biggest driver of cost.
Point clouds, orthomosaics, DEMs, volumetrics, or full reports — and the accuracy grade (GCPs, RTK) you need.
Standard 72-hour turnaround is included; rush 36-hour processing is available when you need numbers faster.
The Five Cost Factors
- Site size & complexity — acreage, number of piles or assets, terrain difficulty, and airspace restrictions.
- Sensor type — LiDAR, drone GPR, and bathymetric sonar carry different equipment and processing costs than standard photogrammetry.
- Accuracy requirements — survey-grade work with ground control points (GCPs) and RTK costs more than relative-accuracy monitoring.
- Deliverables — the formats and analysis you need, from a single orthomosaic to a full multi-format GIS package.
- Mobilization — travel to your site. We’re fully mobile nationwide; distance from West Fargo, ND factors into larger jobs.
Why We Quote Per Project
Curious what this work runs across the wider market? Our Drone Survey Cost Guide covers published industry ranges — and why none of them are a substitute for a real quote.
A flat published rate would either overcharge a small single-pile job or underprice a complex multi-sensor survey. Instead, we scope every project individually so you pay for exactly what your job needs — nothing more. Most quotes come back within one business day, with no obligation and no sales pressure. And if your project requires deliverables certified by a Professional Land Surveyor, we partner with licensed PLS firms who review and stamp the final product — drone-speed collection with a licensed signature on the record.
