Redefining Commercial Drone Inspections Across Kentucky
At 1st Choice Aerial, we help businesses across Frankfort, Lexington, Louisville, Northern Kentucky, and Central and Southern Kentucky complete inspections safely and efficiently. Our FAA certified drone pilots deliver high resolution aerial data faster than traditional methods. This reduces risk, saves time, and keeps projects moving.
From infrastructure surveys and roof inspections to construction progress monitoring and industrial site mapping, we provide the reliable aerial insights Kentucky companies depend on.
With fast turnaround times, strict safety protocols, and years of commercial experience, we are the trusted partner for accurate and actionable data across the state.
Thermal Drone Imaging for Structural and Mechanical Diagnostics
Thermal imaging is an essential tool for identifying problems that cannot be detected through visual inspection alone. Our radiometric infrared systems provide precise temperature data that supports:
- Roof moisture detection and leak evaluation
- Heat loss and insulation performance assessments
- Electrical system diagnostics and hotspot identification
- Mechanical equipment monitoring
- Solar array performance and defect detection
- Utility and substation evaluations
We deliver organized, actionable reports that help clients verify conditions, prioritize maintenance, and prevent unplanned failures. Fast turnaround times support both routine inspection cycles and time sensitive situations.
Aerial Mapping and Construction Documentation
Our aerial mapping services supply engineering grade data for planning, verification, and reporting. Using advanced photogrammetry and 3D modeling workflows, we produce:
- High resolution orthomosaic maps
- 2D and 3D site models
- Cut and fill measurements
- Stockpile and material volume calculations
- Progress documentation for owners and stakeholders
- Elevation and contour data for design and grading
Contractors and developers across Kentucky use our deliverables for accurate record keeping, improved project coordination, and reliable evidence of work completed. All flights follow strict safety, airspace, and compliance procedures.
