Rapid Building Documentation and Support When Conditions Change

Severe weather, unexpected building damage, water intrusion, exterior failures, and other events can create an immediate need for information.

Property owners and facility managers need to understand what happened, where damage may exist, and what requires attention.

National Drone Systems provides technology-supported emergency building assessment and documentation services to help customers quickly gather information following qualifying events.

Rapid Aerial Documentation

Drone technology can provide a valuable initial perspective following an event, particularly when roofs, façades, or other elevated areas are difficult or potentially unsafe to access.

Depending on site conditions and applicable flight requirements, NDS can document:

• Roof conditions
• Exterior building damage
• Façade conditions
• Storm-related impacts
• Water-related observations
• Difficult-to-access areas
• Overall property conditions

Thermal Imaging Capabilities

Where conditions and the building system make it appropriate, thermal imaging may provide additional information about areas exhibiting thermal anomalies that warrant further investigation.

Documentation for the People Who Need It

Collected imagery and reporting can help facility managers communicate observed conditions to appropriate parties, including:

• Internal maintenance teams
• Building engineers
• Roofing contractors
• Restoration professionals
• Property management
• Insurance representatives
• Executive leadership

Nationwide Response Capability

For organizations with properties across multiple markets, NDS's growing nationwide service network provides a framework for coordinating building documentation and response services through a single point of contact.

When something happens to a commercial property, the first step toward solving the problem is understanding the condition of the asset.
