Drone LiDAR Scanning
Millimeter-accurate aerial point clouds captured by sensor-equipped UAVs.
// Coverage / WI
Engineering-grade aerial LiDAR anywhere in Wisconsin — captured by FAA-certified pilots near your site, processed to one national QA standard, delivered in the formats your team works in.
01// Field Notes
Southern Wisconsin's glaciated farmland and drumlin fields capture easily most of the year, while the unglaciated Driftless Area in the southwest brings surprisingly steep wooded ridges and coulees that benefit from leaf-off flights. The Northwoods' mixed forest rewards the short leaf-off windows before snowpack arrives and after spring melt.
Milwaukee Mitchell and Madison's Dane County Regional both carry Class C rings, and the restricted airspace serving Volk Field and Fort McCoy sits in the state's center. One uniquely Wisconsin note: the airspace around Oshkosh transforms every July during EAA AirVenture, when temporary restrictions blanket the region.
The Microsoft data-center campus rising at Mount Pleasant has made Racine County a marquee construction market, on top of steady I-94 corridor growth between Milwaukee and the Illinois line. Madison-area development, sand and aggregate volumetrics, and dairy-industry facility work spread demand across the rest of the state.

03// FAQ
Most Wisconsin projects fall between $2,500 and $15,000 depending on acreage, vegetation, deliverables, and whether certified survey control is required. Small single-site scans start lower; large or corridor projects are quoted per linear mile. Send a KML of your site and we return an exact quote within 24 hours.
Yes — Pro LiDAR contracts vetted, FAA-certified pilots across Wisconsin, including the Milwaukee area. Because capture happens locally, you don't pay travel mobilization for most sites, and weather windows can be hit quickly.
Our point clouds, DEMs, and contours are engineering-grade and drop directly into CAD, GIS, and BIM workflows. When a deliverable must carry a professional land surveyor's certification, we partner with licensed surveyors in Wisconsin to provide it. Remote Optix Inc. and Pro LiDAR are not professional land surveyors and do not represent themselves as such.
