Aerial Drone Mapping in Kentucky
Measurable maps and models for construction, real estate and agriculture, flown and processed by an FAA-licensed pilot across Kentucky and Southern Indiana.

Precision data
See every detail from above
Unlock detailed insight with aerial mapping. I produce high-resolution maps and models that support real decisions across construction, real estate, agriculture and environmental management.
With more than 20 years in photography and video, and flying since 2014, I plan and fly photogrammetry missions that turn thousands of overlapping frames into accurate, georeferenced maps and models. I primarily serve Kentucky and Southern Indiana and travel when the project calls for it.
What I deliver
Maps and models for real decisions
Orthomosaics
High-resolution images stitched into accurate, color-corrected maps of large areas, measurable and current.
3D models
Detailed, interactive models that bring a site to life for planning, analysis and visualization.
Digital terrain models
Elevation data for topographic assessment, grading and land-use planning.
Deliverables
Maps and orthomosaics from recent missions
Every map below came from a real mission: stitched, color-corrected and checked before delivery.
Case study
One site, mapped through time
The new Louisville VA Medical Center site, in 27 monthly maps from June 2024 to September 2026, lined up on each other so only the construction moves. Recurring orthomosaic flights turn a construction site into a timeline: compare months side by side, measure what moved and give every stakeholder the same picture of progress.
Pretty pictures are optional. Measurable, georeferenced maps are the point.
3D models and terrain
From flat maps to full models
Photogrammetry does not stop at two dimensions. Textured 3D models and digital terrain models let engineers, estimators and planners measure stockpiles, check grades and walk a site without leaving the office.
One flight becomes a site you can measure, share and revisit.

Why teams map with me
Mapping you can trust
Mapping is only useful if you can trust it. I fly planned missions with consistent overlap, then process and quality-check every deliverable before it reaches you, as shareable maps, measurable models or raw data for your own GIS and CAD workflows.
Every drone flight is made by an FAA-licensed, fully insured pilot, with airspace checked and cleared before launch. My maps are visual and measurement tools for planning and progress; they are not a legal boundary survey, which still needs a licensed land surveyor.
Mapping pairs naturally with my other work: construction progress documentation, drone inspections and commercial real estate photography across Kentucky and Southern Indiana.
Common questions
Drone mapping questions
What is an orthomosaic map?
A single, high-resolution top-down image stitched from many overlapping drone photos and georeferenced, so the whole site can be viewed and measured in one file.
Is a drone map the same as a land survey?
No. My maps are visual and measurement tools for planning and progress. They are not a legal boundary survey, which still needs a licensed land surveyor.
Can you map the same site every month?
Yes. Planned missions can be flown again on a schedule, so each new map lines up with the last and you can compare the site month to month.
Can mapping be done on the same visit as progress photos?
Yes. Orthomosaic maps and 3D models can be captured alongside progress photos and video, which saves a second trip to the site.
How much does drone mapping cost?
It depends on the site, what you need captured and how often. Send the address and what you have in mind, and you get one clear price for the whole job before the flight.
What areas do you cover?
Louisville, Lexington and the rest of Kentucky, plus Southern Indiana, including New Albany, Jeffersonville, Clarksville and Evansville.
