QA report delivery
01How accurate is the survey data?+
With RTK/GCP typically < 2 cm horizontally; GSD and CE95 are documented per project in the QA sheet.
02Do you deliver BIM-compatible formats?+
Yes — point cloud, mesh, IFC/LandXML reference depending on project phase; compatible with common BIM tools.
03Can you fly on active construction sites?+
Yes — after coordination with site management, ConOps and short-term airspace restrictions if required.
04How does legally sound volume billing work?+
Polygon-based cut/fill metrics against a reference surface or previous epoch — exportable as PDF/CSV for measurement.
05What does a weekly progress subscription cost?+
From approx. €1,990/month (STARTER) — depending on area, number of epochs and analysis depth.
06How long from enquiry to first flight?+
Often 24–72 h after permits; standard projects with a site plan usually within one week.
