Highrise Viewer

Document a tower or condo from top to bottom without a lift or a swing stage. Dated, zoomable captures of every elevation, ready for milestone inspections and facade reviews.

KEY FEATURES

What Highrise Viewer gives you

  • Every elevation on a timeline

    Capture all faces of the building and revisit any date. That record supports Florida milestone inspections under SB 4-D.

  • Zoom to the detail

    Get close on spalling, sealant, and balcony conditions from the imagery, then mark what needs a hands-on look.

  • One shared record

    The association, the property manager, and the inspecting engineer all work from the same dated set of images.

  • Milestone report export

    Export the full facade record as a dated, branded report the engineer and the board can reference during repairs and future milestone reviews.

HOW IT WORKS

One flight, then a living record

  1. We fly the tower

    A pilot captures each elevation top to bottom, close enough to read facade and balcony conditions.

  2. We date and organize

    The captures land in the Highrise Viewer by elevation and date, so nothing gets lost between reviews. Processing takes 2-4 days from flight to delivery.

  3. Your engineer reviews

    The inspecting engineer and the board open the same record to plan repairs and document the milestone.

Highrise Viewer is the newest of the set and the imagery library is still filling in, so the captures shown here stand in for the tower workflow. After Surfside, Florida associations need a dated facade record they can hand an engineer, and that is the job this Viewer does.

The problem

Florida’s Senate Bill 4-D changed the rules for condominium and cooperative associations. After the Surfside collapse, every building over three stories needs a milestone inspection: a structural assessment of the facade, balconies, and load-bearing elements. The inspecting engineer needs dated imagery to compare against, and the board needs a record that shows what changed between reviews.

What the Viewer does

A drone captures every elevation top to bottom without a lift, a swing stage, or a crew on the balconies:

  • By date and elevation: compare the same face of the building across years
  • Spalling, sealant failure, and balcony deterioration show up in the imagery before they become safety hazards
  • One shared record: the engineer, the property manager, and the board all open the same link

Why it matters

Hurricanes make this personal. After a storm, the board needs to show the insurance company exactly what changed, and a dated baseline is the documentation that makes that possible. The Highrise Viewer turns “the building looked fine” into “here is the elevation, the date, and the condition.”

The inspecting engineer and the board open the same record to plan repairs and document the milestone. They zoom into any elevation, mark what needs repair, and export the full facade record as a dated, branded report.
