Drone mapping · Sioux Falls, SD
Precise, measurable aerial data for earthwork and construction teams.
Falls Precision Mapping delivers orthomosaics, stockpile and cut/fill volumes, and progress documentation, so you can verify quantities and track your site faster and at lower cost than traditional methods.
Why drone data
Accurate, fast, and cost-effective site information
Measure the whole site, not just a handful of points, and get results back while they still matter.
Accuracy
Millions of measured points across the entire surface, tied to ground control and delivered in your project coordinate system.
Speed
Large sites are flown in a fraction of the time it takes to walk them, and processed results are delivered quickly enough to act on. Turnaround: [PLACEHOLDER: typical turnaround time].
Cost savings
Fewer crew hours on the ground, more frequent quantity checks, and fewer surprises at pay-app and closeout time.
Services
What we deliver
Construction Progress Mapping
Scheduled flights that capture a georeferenced record of the whole site, so owners, PMs, and superintendents see the same picture.

How Drone Stockpile Volumes Compare to Traditional Surveys
A practical look at how drone photogrammetry measures stockpiles and earthwork, how it differs from GPS rover and total-station methods, and when each makes sense.
