ICC DRONES provides high-accuracy mapping and data collection services designed for civil engineers, developers, architects, contractors, and municipalities across the Dallas–Fort Worth region. With over 30 years of combined experience, our team integrates advanced drone (sUAS) technology with traditional ground-based surveying to deliver precise, design-ready information. Every dataset we produce is engineered to support grading design, drainage analysis, permitting, construction planning, and large-scale site development. Our goal is to streamline the entire mapping process by delivering clear, dependable, and technically sound data that integrates seamlessly into Civil 3D, AutoCAD, GIS, and BIM workflows.

Topographic & Aerial Mapping Services

Our Topographic & Aerial Mapping Services are designed to give engineers and designers the accurate foundation they need for successful project development. We combine field-measured elevations, GNSS data, breaklines, utilities, and surface features with high-resolution drone photogrammetry to create detailed topographic base maps. These deliverables support grading design, drainage modeling, site planning, feasibility studies, and early-stage construction analysis. From small infill lots to large development tracts, ICC DRONES delivers contours, TIN surfaces, orthomosaic imagery, DSM/DTM surfaces, and point cloud files that integrate directly into your design platform. By blending aerial efficiency with ground precision, we provide a complete, engineering-grade dataset that reduces design errors, accelerates planning, and ensures consistent accuracy across the entire project lifecycle. Whether you need a drone-captured surface, a detailed topo map, or a combination of both, our team delivers dependable mapping results on time and within budget.

Conventional Ground-Based Data Collection (Design-Grade)

For projects requiring the highest levels of precision, ICC DRONES offers conventional ground-based data collection using GNSS surveying, robotic total stations, and digital leveling workflows. This design-grade field data is critical for producing accurate surfaces, utility layers, drainage structures, inverts, and other measurements essential to civil engineering design. Our ground-based services support small commercial sites, large subdivisions, roadway improvements, utility expansions, detention pond design, and more. We also provide visible utility location, site control establishment, boundary add-ons, and fully structured Civil 3D base maps. Every dataset undergoes rigorous QA/QC to ensure it meets engineering tolerances. With a focus on accuracy, consistency, and clarity, our field-collected data minimizes rework, reduces design conflicts, and supports seamless integration with aerial mapping surfaces for hybrid deliverables. When precision matters - and it always does - our ground-based services provide the defensible, high-quality measurements your project demands.

Aerial Drone Mapping (sUAS with GCPs or RTK)

Our Aerial Drone Mapping Services deliver rapid, high-resolution data collection enhanced through Ground Control Points (GCPs) or Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) correction workflows. This allows us to achieve engineering-grade accuracy suitable for grading plans, cut/fill analyses, utility layouts, construction logistics, earthwork modeling, and as-built verification. Using state-of-the-art drones, we capture detailed orthomosaics, DSM/DTM surfaces, 3D point clouds, contours, and TIN surfaces that integrate seamlessly into your engineering models. Drone mapping dramatically reduces field time, improves safety, and provides exceptional clarity for project sites ranging from small pads to 100+ acre developments. Whether you need full engineering deliverables, orthomosaic imagery, volumetric calculations, or RTK-verified surfaces, ICC DRONES delivers consistent, accurate data that supports timely decision-making and enhances project coordination. Our drone workflows provide reliable mapping solutions at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods. Read More About Aerial Drone Mapping (sUAS with GCPs or RTK) »

Integrated Mapping Packages

ICC DRONES offers Integrated Mapping Packages that combine drone photogrammetry, ground-based surveying, site control, and Civil 3D-ready deliverables into one comprehensive solution. These packages are ideal for clients seeking simplified workflows and complete data coverage for engineering design, permitting, utility planning, and construction preparation. Options include our “Site Start-Up” package for small commercial sites, the “Drone + Surface Package” for mid-size developments, and our “Full Engineering Base Map” for large tracts requiring both ground and aerial data. Each package includes contours, surfaces, spot elevations, orthomosaics, utility features, and structured DWG files, with optional boundary and legal description add-ons for platting. This integrated approach eliminates the need to coordinate multiple vendors, accelerates turnaround times, and delivers a cohesive dataset built to engineering standards. With ICC DRONES, clients receive complete, accurate, and well-organized mapping data from a single trusted partner. Read More About Integrated Mapping Packages »
