Property Aerial Observation Report
Full-site aerial coverage before you commit to a formal assessment — at a fraction of the cost.

Delivers documented surface coverage across the full property envelope for a fraction of the cost of a preliminary commercial site assessment.

Roof & Facade Aerial Observation Report
Every roof surface and building elevation — documented, annotated, and ready to share.
A licensed FAA Part 107 drone operator captures high-resolution orthomosaic imagery of all roof surfaces and oblique photography of every building elevation — coverage a ground-level inspection or roofing contractor cannot provide. Findings are organized into a professionally formatted aerial observation report with annotated imagery, location references, and items flagged for qualified contractor follow-up. Each report carries a unique report number and is formatted for direct use by insurance carriers, lenders, and due diligence teams.
Industry context Commercial property underwriting and loss-control workflows increasingly rely on high-resolution aerial imagery of roofs and structures to evaluate risk and condition. Our reports — orthomosaic overview plus targeted close-ups — are structured to align with how carriers and lenders actually review properties. Source: Verisk →
What's Included
- Roof orthomosaic — full aerial surface overview
- Targeted close-ups: penetrations, HVAC, drains, flashing, seams
- Four-elevation facade coverage (N · S · E · W)
- Annotated imagery — items flagged for qualified contractor follow-up
- Written observation summary + unique report number
- Secure portal access — shareable with insurers, lenders & contractors
- 72-hour delivery, weather and airspace permitting

Property Watch Program
A growing, time-stamped aerial archive — same flight paths, same angles, every quarter.
Quarterly aerial visits that build a documented visual history of your property over time — same GPS-consistent flight paths, same angles, same coordinates every visit. Every flight adds to a growing archive accessible on demand by investors, lenders, and insurance carriers without chasing files or managing permissions. In Northern California, that archive directly supports insurance renewals, lender diligence, and refinancing preparation with time-stamped visual proof of property condition across seasons.
Industry context California’s insurance regulator has documented a sharp increase in carriers using aerial imagery to inspect properties and make coverage decisions — a trend significant enough to prompt proposed legislation requiring notice and dispute rights for policyholders. An owner-controlled aerial archive puts you on equal footing. Source: California Department of Insurance →
What's Included Each Quarter
- Growing portal archive — all quarters organized and accessible on demand
- Quarterly aerial visit — GPS-consistent flight path, same coordinates every visit
- Consistent corner & elevation photo set (same angles each visit)
- Roof nadir coverage
- 10–20 image comparison set (current vs. prior quarter)
- Change log: visible differences documented each visit

Visual observation only — not an inspection, audit, or engineering assessment.
Why aerial documentation matters now
California’s Insurance Commissioner has flagged a sharp increase in carriers using aerial imagery to inspect properties and make coverage decisions — a trend significant enough to prompt proposed consumer protection legislation. That makes an owner-controlled, time-stamped aerial record more valuable than ever: when a question about your property’s condition comes up at renewal time, you have your own documentation, not just whatever a third-party flyover captured.
