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 accurate, measurable 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
- Digital elevation and contour models
- Point cloud generation
- Volumetric calculations for earthwork
- As-built 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 need accurate acreage and terrain data, and municipalities documenting infrastructure. If your project needs measurable, 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.

Land Development
Accurate topographic and boundary data before breaking ground on a new subdivision, road, or utility corridor.
Ranch & Land Management
Acreage verification, terrain analysis, and water feature mapping for landowners across the Concho Valley.
Infrastructure Documentation
As-built records and site condition surveys for municipalities, utilities, and engineering firms.
From Flight to Data
Consultation
We discuss your site, the deliverables you need, and your accuracy requirements.
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 accurate map, 3D model, or elevation surface. It lets us measure distances, elevations, and volumes directly from the data instead of relying on manual ground surveys alone.
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, LAS point clouds, and DXF contour files. We can discuss the specific format your engineer, surveyor, or planner needs before the flight.
How accurate is drone mapping data?
Accuracy depends on flight altitude, camera resolution, and whether ground control points are used. We'll walk through the accuracy requirements for your specific project, including options for higher-precision surveys, 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.
