At Spalding DeDecker, we use our UAV (drone) for aerial videography and photography to complement our traditional surveying and laser scanning workflow. The drone surveying data can help facilitate various projects including construction staking, as-builts, real estate, site documentation, and mapping. It also helps access areas that are unsafe for field personnel.
