Drone Services for the Building Industry

3D Scan Bat in Nyon and Martigny offers a wide range of drone services tailored to the construction industry.

Drones are revolutionising the construction industry by providing fast, safe and accurate access to areas that would otherwise be difficult to reach. In just a few minutes, it is possible to capture visual and technical data This technology not only saves time, but also reduces the risks and costs associated with traditional logistics. This technology not only saves time, but also reduces the risks and costs associated with traditional logistics. At 3D Scan Bat, we exploit the full potential of drones to provide deliverables that can be used immediately, adapted to the real constraints of professionals in the sector.

Our teams operate throughout French-speaking Switzerland with drones equipped with latest-generation sensors. We tailor our services to the specific needs of architects, engineers, building authorities and construction companies. Whether you need to make a rapid diagnosis, plan a renovation, document a worksite or prepare a technical study, our aerial surveys guarantee reliable data that can be used immediately. By integrating our deliverables directly into your CAD/CAM or BIM software, you gain in responsiveness and accuracy. The combination of our drones and our expertise in the field makes 3D Scan Bat an essential technological partner.

Our Drone Services

Inspection: Aerial shots and photo files

Our drones provide precise roof surveys for a variety of applications. Whether it's for installing solar panels, for tinsmiths, architects or any other building professional who needs information at height and/or inaccessible places.

We use high-resolution sensors and lenses adapted to aerial filming to deliver exceptionally sharp images. This allows us to detect the smallest detailsOur surveys are time-stamped and geo-referenced, providing full traceability of the data collected. Our surveys are time-stamped and geo-referenced, providing full traceability of the data collected. This approach is particularly useful for technical appraisals, insurance purposes and documenting the condition of buildings before and after works.

Photographic file

We provide detailed images and measurements, making the job easier and guaranteeing high-quality results.

As well as simply taking photographs, we organise our photographic files so that they become genuine working tools. Each photograph is classified, time-stamped and linked to a precise location, making it possible to follow the evolution of a building over time. This traceability facilitates before-and-after comparisons and enhances transparency in discussions with customers, insurance companies or the authorities. Our visual reports are designed to be clear and immediately usable, whether for a technical survey, a claims study or preparing a roof or façade renovation.

Taking Measurements: Interactive Point Cloud

We can provide you with a cloud of points accessible via a simple internet link. Thanks to an integrated viewer, you can directly take measurements, calculate surfaces and extract various data essential to your projects.

Photogrammetric roof survey

Thanks to photogrammetry, we can produce extremely accurate surveys, generating clouds of points and 3D models. These tools are essential for architects' plans, enabling precise visualisation and planning of your projects.

La precision obtained thanks to photogrammetry can be as little as a few millimetres, avoiding costly mistakes during design or renovation. What's more, the 3D visualisation facilitates communication between the various parties involved in the project: architects, engineers, contractors and tradesmen. It also makes it possible toanticipate technical constraintsThis enables you to validate your architectural choices and reduce the number of unforeseen events on site. With 3D Scan Bat, every survey becomes a concrete asset for optimising your deadlines and budgets.

Aerial mapping and orthophotos

Thanks to the drone photogrammetryWe produce high-resolution orthophotos that faithfully reproduce the condition of a site or roof. These geo-referenced images are invaluable for documenting large surfaces, checking actual dimensions and preparing development projects. In the construction industry, they can be used for feasibility studies and to validate completed works. Our orthophotos can also be used to check compliance with cadastral plans or current standards. In addition, they can be integrated into design software to cross-reference topographical and architectural data, for a complete and reliable view.

Technical Inspection and Real-time Site Monitoring

Thanks to our drones, it is possible to carry out a regular monitoring of work progress and document each key stage of the project. Aerial images and 3D models make it possible to compare existing conditions with forecasts, identify discrepancies and react quickly. This method is ideal for project owners who want to control the quality of executionIt's also ideal for construction companies who need to provide detailed visual reports to their customers. All this is done remotely, without interrupting on-site activities.

Our site monitoring by drone are also an asset for coordination meetings between different trades. By projecting aerial images or 3D models, it is possible to visualise critical areas in real time, detect any delays and anticipate any necessary adjustments. This collaborative approach reduces misunderstandings and speeds up decision-making. What's more, our digital deliverables can be integrated into collaborative online platforms, giving everyone involved in the project access to the same up-to-date information, wherever they are, without the need for additional travel.

3D Models and Architectural Plans

On request, our services can use the point cloud to produce a 3D models and 2D plans. This offer is ideal for architects and building professionals who need detailed, accurate representations of their projects.

Optimising on-site safety

The use of drones in the construction industry is helping to reduce risks associated with inspections at height or in dangerous areas. No need to erect scaffolding or send teams up onto unstable roofs: the drone captures all the necessary data from the ground. This not only improves worker safety, but also makes it easier to comply with current regulations. What's more, the speed with which it can be carried out reduces the amount of time workers are exposed to risks on site, while guaranteeing a high level of accuracy in the readings.

Energy monitoring and preventive maintenance

Drone imagery can also be used to produce thermographic checks (optional) to detect heat loss, insulation defects or problems with solar panels. These readings facilitate energy audits and help plan targeted interventions. In terms of maintenance, our regular inspections reduce the cost of unexpected repairs by detecting anomalies early. For utilities, local authorities and asset managers, this is a strategic tool for extending the lifespan of buildings while optimising their energy performance. The precision and speed of drones make them an invaluable ally.
