    We are checking whether an aerial capture is suitable. Then we clarify the conditions on site and plan the flight.

  3. 03

    We capture and process the data

    We take the necessary images and measurement data and prepare them for your task.

FAQ

Questions about drone surveying and inspection

When does a drone inspection make sense?

When structures and infrastructure need to remain in operation, areas are difficult to access or large areas need to be surveyed in a short time. You receive images, thermal images and a localized result, without scaffolding, usually without blocking.

Do we need special permission for drone flights?

No, FlyHigh takes care of all necessary flight permits. With our operating authorisations from the German Federal Aviation Authority, we can also operate legally and safely in urban areas, near airports or over industrial facilities. You will receive all the necessary documents for your records.

In which file formats are the results delivered?

We deliver data in all common industry formats for seamless integration into your workflows: GeoTIFF for orthophotos, LAS/LAZ for point clouds, DWG/DXF for CAD and IFC for BIM. We also provide special formats upon request.

How long does it take from commissioning to delivery of the data?

The project duration depends on the size and complexity. Smaller inspection projects can be completed within 1-3 days. More extensive survey projects typically take 3-7 days.

What role does the weather play in drone operations?

Our professional drones are partially weatherproof (IP55) and fly in winds of up to 15 m/s and light rain. For best data quality, we prefer dry conditions. We monitor the weather forecast and plan operations flexibly.

Is there the possibility for recurring inspections or monitoring?

Yes, we develop tailor-made monitoring programs for regular inspections and monitoring. These can take place monthly, quarterly or annually and are ideal for monitoring construction progress, assessing the condition of systems or analyzing environmental changes. Long-term contracts offer cost advantages.

In which regions are your services available?

We are primarily active in Germany, Poland, Switzerland and Austria. Thanks to harmonized EU regulations, we can flexibly expand our services to other European countries. For international projects, we can obtain the necessary permits within 2-4 weeks.
