High-Density Point Clouds
Our high-precision aerial sensor platform captures millions of georeferenced 3D points across your site in a single mobilization — producing a millimeter-accurate digital twin of as-is conditions. Every structural surface, grade change, and site feature is documented with spatial precision that manual survey methods cannot match at scale.
Scan-to-BIM Workflows
Reality capture data is processed and converted into parametric models ready for seamless integration into your Building Information Modeling lifecycle. Aligned with the SQI mandate for BIM on Quebec public infrastructure projects, our Field-to-File workflow bridges the gap between physical site conditions and the digital models your design and engineering teams depend on.
Photogrammetry & Orthomosaics
Calibrated aerial photogrammetry produces georeferenced orthomosaic maps with a Ground Sampling Distance as fine as 1–3 cm/pixel — providing measurable, court-admissible spatial records for topographic analysis, volumetric verification, and construction progress documentation across every project phase.
A Technical Partner Built for Complex Infrastructure.
Every engagement is conducted under Transport Canada Advanced Operations certification — enabling complex spatial data acquisition missions in controlled airspace and dense urban environments across Ontario and Québec.
Transport Canada Advanced Operations
All missions are executed under Transport Canada Advanced Operations certification, authorizing complex remote sensing operations in controlled airspace, urban corridors, and restricted zones across the Ontario and Québec corridor — including Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, and Quebec City.
OIQ / PEO & OAGQ / AOLS Collaboration
We operate as a technical specialist alongside licensed Engineers (OIQ/PEO) and Registered Land Surveyors (OAGQ/AOLS), providing the high-resolution as-is spatial data required for their professional analysis, legal certifications, and regulatory submissions — without encroaching on the scope of practice of regulated professionals.
SQI BIM Mandate Alignment
The Société québécoise des infrastructures (SQI) requires Building Information Modeling on all major public infrastructure projects. Munera Diligence is positioned as the geospatial data acquisition partner of choice for organizations required to deliver BIM-compliant digital documentation — providing the reality capture foundation that parametric models are built upon.
The Business Case for Aerial Geomatics.
Organizations that implement structured drone geomatics programs see measurable improvements across four key dimensions: time, cost, risk, and compliance.
$100K–$200K
Reduced Rework
Real-time coordination and clash detection in a BIM environment identify errors before construction begins. On a $10 million project, avoiding rework and improving design efficiency represents between $100,000 and $200,000 in recoverable value.
60×
Increased Efficiency
Aerial sensor platforms cover up to 120 acres per hour versus only 5 acres per hour for traditional on-foot methods — a 60-fold increase in data collection speed. Teams focus on high-value analysis while acquisition happens faster and at higher resolution.
91%
Improved Safety
Replacing workers on scaffolding or in hazardous environments with remote sensing technology reduces life-threatening incidents by up to 91%. In 2021, worker injuries cost the construction industry an estimated $167 billion — reducing that exposure directly protects project margins.
Same Day
Faster Decision-Making
Instant access to georeferenced site data allows project owners, lenders, and engineers to validate progress and approve next steps without a site visit — compressing approval cycles and eliminating travel overhead across multi-site portfolios.
From Static Survey to Living Infrastructure Model.
The pinnacle of geospatial data delivery is the digital twin — a virtual representation of a physical asset that captures its geometry, behaviors, relationships, and real-time operational data. Unlike a static 3D model, a digital twin is dynamic and can be enriched with IoT sensor data to monitor performance, detect anomalies, and simulate future scenarios before they occur on site.
