3D Modeling
3D Models from Drone-Based Imagery:
FluidState’s drone can be used to create 3D models of buildings or sites (or both) to aid in planning, design, and presentation of finalized projects. Using a combination of overhead nadir (camera pointed straight down) and oblique (drone orbiting the point of interest at different elevations with an angled camera) imagery, we can create 3D models of your project. Think of it like Google Earth’s 3D Building Models - for your site and your needs.

3D Modeling outputs can be provided as Object (.obj) files for inclusion in other 3D modeling workflows.
Landscape-scale 3D Models
Want to get a better sense of your projects overall landscape? Maybe you’re working on a project site that you’ve only visited once (or maybe never). With a landscape-scale 3D model (captured at high-resolution during whatever season you want) you can re-visit the site virtually as many times as you like.
Click the model (left) to explore a 21-acre field in Monkton, Vermont captured in early March, 2020. Capturing the data necessary for this model took ~10 minutes of drone flight time, with an additional 2 hours of post-processing, verification, and editing time (start to finish).
