Custom Pricing will be influenced by turnaround time requested, types of deliverables, access to location, size of project, and travel requirements among others.
Pricing and Projects
Reality is people today want to click on a link immediately getting an exact price. The structure and vast potential of options in this industry doesn't work well that way. If a price does exist on a website it is almost always there as a starting point for them to up-sell the client. Having said that there are examples of three Real Estate packages below that seem to be a standard request across the industry.
Overall, I use custom pricing. The variations in needs are nearly impossible to present a one size fits all with online pricing. A few variables are turnaround time requested, types of deliverables, access to location, size of project, and travel requirements. Contact me with an idea of what's needed and general location so we can discuss the options when you are ready. You will be provided a written quote, digitally or physically, for review before any work begins.
If you are a tax exempt organization please notify at the time of quote, with your Tax ID number, acceptance so the invoice will reflect the correct total. EEI accepts payment online via all major credits cards and E-Check through a service company. No account information is stored on our website nor servers. Additional payments may be made through cash or company checks.
Below is a short list of possible directions a company or individual could benefit from usage of aerial imagery. The options are virtually boundless right now. Use your imagination and contact me if there are questions concerning the capabilities of my company.
Potential Uses for Aerial Photography or Videography
Real Estate (the most obvious) - not just of homes but to document the current conditions for over grown or cleared land for sale. Satellite imagery may not be up to date or could not document, with high enough detail, what a customer or developer needs.
Commercial Property - All types of businesses need occasional review of the roofing area or the parking lots for damage. Sometime commercial property is not even owned by a local company and could save by having a local company send them images of these things.
Construction - Corporations monitor progression of a site under development. The developers already do this at certain locations for Weekly, Bi-weekly, or Monthly reviews. It saves them the time and expense for sending out an employee. Homeowners could take advantage of this process also in keeping up with the status of their new home construction.
Landscaping Planning - New and old construction, commercial and residential, are good uses of aerial imagery. Pre-planning the layout options through up to date photos is clear. Self promotion using sUAS imagery of the process can show potential clients of the full process.
Many other potential uses can include:
Businesses looking to promote a new location will see opportunities in using visual media through social media and more. Travel and Tourism Organizations could benefit from both photos and video. Parks and Recreation agencies could benefit from preplanning events or recording them for self promotion and advertising.
Geo-mapping for companies using open data source sites that need recent information. EEI has GCPs and GNSS equipment for approximate 2cm accuracy used by GIS, Surveyors, and potentially companies laying fiber lines or construction piping. (**No imagery provided will be guaranteed as "survey" accurate. It will be up to the client to hire a certified surveyor to validate the imagery provided if that level of accuracy is required.)
Site inspections for several industries are available. Insurance companies might need to review a claim of damage during a storm or something less than natural. A Home Inspector can save time doing roofing inspections and a detailed review is much safer.
