OPERATIONAL FAQ
How far do you travel?
Approximately 100 miles from Bowmanstown/Palmerton for normal operations; projects beyond that area may be quoted individually.
Can I book a flight instantly?
No. Submit a mission request or book a free 15-minute planning call. A flight is confirmed only after scope, airspace, weather, access, safety, travel, and deliverables are reviewed.
What affects pricing?
Acreage, complexity, airspace, access, travel, deliverables, processing, recurrence, and turnaround.
What happens if weather is unsuitable?
We coordinate a practical replacement window; weather and airspace can require rescheduling.
Do I need property access?
Lawful access and a safe takeoff/landing location must be confirmed before flight.
Are your maps legal boundary surveys?
No. Meridian provides aerial imagery, photogrammetry, mapping, and informational data products; boundary and regulated professional work require an appropriately licensed professional.
Do you offer thermal or LiDAR?
No. Current services use visible-light aerial imagery and photogrammetric processing.
Can you guarantee a specific accuracy?
No universal accuracy is promised. Suitability depends on mission design, site conditions, control, visibility, equipment, processing, and intended use. Requirements are reviewed before confirmation.
What files can I receive?
Depending on scope: curated images, reports, orthomosaic imagery, 3D models, annotations, and agreed GIS-ready files. Formats are confirmed during planning.
Can you document a site repeatedly?
Yes. Recurring schedules can create consistent dated visual records, subject to mission review for each visit.
