Aerial Mapping & Photogrammetry in San Angelo & West Texas
Concho Valley Aerial Solutions provides FAA Part 107 certified aerial mapping and photogrammetry throughout San Angelo and West Texas, producing orthomosaic maps, elevation models, and point cloud data for land development, planning, and construction projects.
Mapping Data Ready for GIS & CAD
We fly a structured grid pattern over your site, capturing hundreds of overlapping photos that are processed into detailed visual data. Results are delivered in formats that plug directly into the GIS and CAD software your engineers, surveyors, and planners already use.
- High-resolution orthomosaic maps
- 3D models and elevation visualizations
- Point cloud generation
- Volumetric estimates for earthwork planning
- As-built visual documentation
- Land development and planning support
Built for Land Development & Infrastructure Work
Aerial mapping is used by land developers planning a new subdivision, engineers tracking earthwork on a job site, ranch and landowners who want repeatable aerial imagery of their terrain, and municipalities documenting infrastructure. If your project needs detailed, repeatable aerial data instead of just photos, this is the service built for it.
Mapping flights are typically planned as a single site visit rather than a recurring engagement, though repeat flights are common on longer land development or construction timelines to track changes over time.

Where Aerial Mapping Gets Used
Land Development
Orthomosaic imagery and site visualizations before breaking ground on a new subdivision, road, or utility corridor.
Ranch & Land Management
Aerial imagery, terrain visualization, and water feature documentation for landowners across the Concho Valley.
Infrastructure Documentation
As-built visual records and site condition documentation for municipalities, utilities, and engineering firms.
From Flight to Data
Consultation
We discuss your site, the deliverables you need, and how the imagery will be used.
Flight Planning
We plan a grid flight pattern and check airspace and weather before scheduling.
Data Capture
Hundreds of overlapping images are captured across the site in a single flight.
Processing & Delivery
Images are processed into maps, models, or point clouds and delivered in your format.
Aerial Mapping & Photogrammetry FAQ
What is drone photogrammetry?
Photogrammetry is the process of stitching hundreds of overlapping aerial photos into a single map, 3D model, or elevation surface. It produces orthomosaic imagery, 3D models, and volumetric estimates for planning purposes, without mobilizing traditional survey crews for an early look at a site.
What file formats do you deliver mapping data in?
Deliverables are provided in standard formats compatible with common GIS and CAD software, including GeoTIFF orthomosaics and LAS point clouds. We can prepare the data in the format your engineer, surveyor, or planner needs before the flight.
What can drone mapping imagery show?
Image detail depends on flight altitude and camera resolution. We'll walk through what the imagery can show for your specific project, and where a licensed land surveyor is needed for authoritative measurements, before scheduling a flight.
Do you provide volumetric and earthwork calculations?
Yes. We generate stockpile and cut/fill volumetric calculations from aerial data, which is useful for earthwork tracking, material inventory, and construction planning.
What areas do you serve for aerial mapping?
We are based in San Angelo and provide mapping and photogrammetry services throughout the Concho Valley and West Texas, including Midland, Odessa, Abilene, Big Spring, Sonora, Eldorado, and Mertzon.
