Drone in flight at dusk

Measurement people first

Aerial data is only useful if the people receiving it can trust it and use it. Everything about how we work follows from that.

Built to be the company we wished we could hire

I started Summit Aerial Solutions in 2024 after seeing too many project teams receive drone data they couldn't use — maps with no accuracy documentation, point clouds in the wrong coordinate system, deliverables that didn't answer engineering questions.

So I built around precision data capture, processing that's checked against ground truth, and deliverables designed for how engineers, estimators, and project managers actually work.

Today Summit Aerial Solutions supports construction firms, engineering consultancies, energy operators, and commercial developers — many on recurring contracts that speak to the consistency of our work.

Owner & Chief Pilot — Summit Aerial Solutions LLC

I handle every project end to end — from flight planning and airspace authorization through data processing and final deliverable. Whether it's an orthomosaic for a construction site, a DSM for grading verification, or a compliance package for a new drone program, I bring the same standard to every engagement.

With hands-on experience across drone mapping, photogrammetry, 3D modeling, and regulatory compliance, I understand both the technology and the workflows it feeds into. The data I deliver is built to integrate into your engineering and project management tools, not just to look good in a presentation.

What we hold ourselves to

Accuracy you can defend

Every dataset is tied to ground control and delivered with an accuracy report. If a number leaves our office, we can show you how we got it.

Safety without exceptions

Documented flight procedures, maintained equipment logs, airspace authorization on every mission, and a no-fly call that's always available.

Deadlines that hold

Construction schedules don't wait. Standard deliverables ship promptly after capture, and we tell you early if weather threatens a window.

Plain communication

You get a single point of contact who speaks both mapping and construction — not a ticket queue.

Work with a team that stands behind its data.
