On site in Frankfurt am Main
Area-wide as-built data for the dense project landscape in Frankfurt
Instead of a photo album, you receive a measurable data product: cleanly captured, manually checked and exported for your planning workflow.
Read local details and clearance notes
Frankfurt combines large new developments with dense existing buildings. For roof refurbishment, vertical extensions, facade design and construction progress, we provide a georeferenced model that can be measured directly and carried into the next planning stage.
The Osthafen combines logistics, storage and production across large halls and open areas, while the Europaviertel and Ostend contain mixed-use quarters and complex building edges. Capture is therefore planned around the site, its surroundings and the required ground resolution.
Industrial and commercial buildings in Höchst, Fechenheim, Griesheim or Niederrad also benefit when roofs and facades need to be documented without interrupting operations. Repeat flights create a consistent progress and as-built record.
On-site flight
Check the site, clear the airspace, capture safely.
Processing
Orthophoto, 3D model, point cloud or CAD export.
Deliverables
Survey deliverables for projects in Frankfurt am Main
01
Measurable 3D model
A georeferenced and manually checked building model for construction sites, commercial roofs and industrial areas, ready for use without rebuilding th...
02
Georeferenced orthophoto
A true-to-scale aerial image of a plot, construction site or operating area in Frankfurt am Main, available as GeoTIFF for GIS and planning documents.
03
Roof and facade measurements
Areas, edges, slopes and heights are recorded without requiring scaffolding, a lift or a roof inspection for the initial survey.
04
Point cloud for CAD and BIM
Dense LAS, LAZ or E57 point clouds for existing-condition planning, conversions and coordination on buildings and plants in Frankfurt am Main.
05
Construction progress and as-built records
Repeat flights document changes consistently and provide a clear basis for comparing planned and completed work.
06
Volumes, areas and solar inputs
Volumes, roof areas and shading can be derived from the same dataset and exported for estimating, planning or documentation.
Process
How drone surveying works in Frankfurt am Main
Four steps, one owner: from your request to the checked delivery.
- 01
Define the address and outcome
Send us the address in Frankfurt am Main, the scope and the required deliverable. We check feasibility, airspace and site access.
- 02
Prepare the capture
We plan flight lines, safety distances, ground resolution and, where required, control points or RTK/PPK for the accuracy target.
- 03
Capture on site
We fly the site in Frankfurt am Main ourselves and verify image coverage before leaving the location.
- 04
Check and deliver
After photogrammetric processing, we check geometry and completeness and provide the agreed target formats.

Why Voxelia
Why aerial measurement works for construction sites, commercial roofs and industrial areas
01
Capture more area in less time
Connected roofs, facades and outdoor areas in Frankfurt am Main can be documented completely in one coordinated capture.
02
Avoid hazardous access
Difficult roof edges, industrial halls and existing facades can be measured without sending staff into exposed areas for the initial survey.
03
One dataset for multiple disciplines
Orthophoto, 3D model, point cloud and measurements come from the same capture and stay consistent across design, construction and records.
Safety & compliance
One team for capture and modelling in Frankfurt am Main
- On-site service in Frankfurt am Main and surrounding areas
- Address-specific airspace and feasibility check
- Manually checked 3D and geospatial data
- One contact for capture, processing and export
- Standard CAD, GIS, BIM and solar formats
Airspace and flight clearance in Frankfurt am Main
Voxelia 3D plans the deployment from Nierstein, captures the site in Frankfurt am Main and completes the photogrammetric processing. Flight planning, data quality and delivery formats therefore stay with one team.
Every dataset is manually checked for image coverage, geometry and plausibility before delivery. The result is a usable basis for CAD, GIS, BIM or solar design rather than a loose collection of photographs.
Frankfurt is located around an international airport and includes other sensitive areas such as helicopter pads, government sites and critical infrastructure. Depending on the address, height and operation, geographical zones or additional clearances may apply. Before confirming a date, we check the exact address against the current aviation maps. Property rights, privacy, nature protection, critical infrastructure and any required clearances are handled for the specific project. We do not promise a flight without checking the address first.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about drone surveying in Frankfurt am Main
01How much does a drone survey in Frankfurt am Main cost?
Area is only one factor. In Frankfurt am Main, the effort is also shaped by dense development, traffic, safety areas, site access and potential clearance work. Once we know the address, output and accuracy target, we provide a specific quote.
02Do you travel to Frankfurt am Main for the flight?
Yes. We plan the deployment from Nierstein, capture the site in Frankfurt am Main ourselves and then handle modelling, quality control and export. Suitable imagery supplied by the client can also be processed.
03Does a drone flight in Frankfurt am Main require a permit?
Frankfurt is located around an international airport and includes other sensitive areas such as helicopter pads, government sites and critical infrastructure. Depending on the address, height and operation, geographical zones or additional clearances may apply. We therefore check the exact address and operating conditions before confirming a flight date.
04How accurate is the result?
Achievable accuracy depends on the site, flight height, overlap, georeferencing and visibility. For higher requirements we plan control points or RTK/PPK and agree the target before capture.
05Which files are delivered?
Depending on the project, we provide a 3D model, orthophoto, point cloud, measurements, volumes and CAD or BIM exports such as GeoTIFF, LAS/LAZ/E57, DXF/DWG, IFC, OBJ or GLB.
06Is the method suitable for larger commercial and construction sites in Frankfurt am Main?
Yes. construction sites, commercial roofs and industrial areas benefit from area-wide, repeatable capture. Flight sections, ground resolution and deliverables are tailored to the size and intended use.
