Bridging the Gap: Aerial + Street-Level Imagery

Our clients have made it clear: bridging the gap between aerial and street-level imagery is a priority. That’s why we’re excited to announce that we now offer both.
As aerial imagery technology continues to advance—and with FAA and DoD policies opening the door for wider UAV use—it’s clear that drones are here to stay. Aerial imagery remains one of the most powerful and efficient tools available for capturing large areas quickly. However, there are many situations where street-level imagery is just as critical.

Why Street-Level Imagery Still Matters
Street-level imagery allows professionals to see details on the horizontal plane
Covered porches and awnings
Complex building footprints
Vegetation that hides structures from above
Infrastructure and horizontal planes at eye level
While our aerial 3D models are highly accurate (within +/- 7 square feet), some distortion can occur when viewing structures at a steep angle. Street-level imagery eliminates this challenge by capturing vertical details and areas hidden from sight.
The Power of Combined Datasets
Here’s where it gets exciting: we now have the ability to both drive and fly over areas of interest, then merge those datasets into one of the most robust and information-rich 3D models available.
This combined approach:
Reduces time in the field by eliminating repeat visits
Provides unmatched 3D clarity for assessors, engineers, emergency management teams, and more
Offers georeferenced, stand-alone images so users can inspect and verify details in the way that works best for their organization
While street-level imagery alone can be limited, combining it with our high-resolution aerial data provides a richer, clearer experience.
A Real Need We’re Solving
Over half of our current and future clients have expressed the need for this capability, and we’re proud to be delivering it. Whether you’re assessing a property, designing a site plan, or verifying infrastructure conditions, this integrated solution delivers the data you need—faster and with more clarity than ever before.
