Common Questions

No. Porche Aerial does not sell or service drones. We are a professional drone services company that provides aerial data capture, inspections, and media production using our own fleet and equipment.

Yes. All Porche Aerial pilots are FAA Part 107 certified, and we carry full liability insurance for every mission we fly.

No. For safety, regulatory, and liability reasons, only certified Porche Aerial pilots are authorized to operate our equipment.

We provide both. Depending on your project needs, we can deliver raw imagery, orthomosaics, 3D models, point clouds, or fully edited videos and reports.

Our typical service area covers the Gulf Coast region from Port Arthur, Texas to Port Fourchon, Louisiana. We also accept projects outside this range on a case-by-case basis depending on scope and logistics.

Not in the traditional sense. Our time-lapse systems are not designed to function like security cameras. Security systems rely on constant power and network access, which limits their use in remote or long-term environments.

Porche Aerial's time-lapse units were built from the ground up to solve this problem. They are solar powered, cellular based, and fully self-contained, making them ideal for long-term documentation in extreme or off-grid conditions. Images are captured continuously at a high frequency and uploaded every 2 to 3 hours for consistent progress tracking.

Porche Aerial is not a licensed surveying firm. While our deliverables are highly accurate and georeferenced, they are not considered survey-grade unless used in conjunction with data from a licensed surveyor.

You will receive a secure online portal or download link where you can view, manage, or download all project data, images, videos, and reports.

Yes, if authorized. Many areas require prior approval from Air Traffic Control before we can fly. We handle all necessary airspace checks and authorization requests before providing a final quote or scheduling the job.

Even brief missions require time for travel, gear setup, airspace checks, on-site safety protocols, and post-processing. Because of this, we apply a one-hour minimum to all services. That said, we’re flexible and happy to work with any budget or scope.

Yes — we can task satellites to capture brand-new images from anywhere on Earth, often within just a few days. While we don’t own the satellites ourselves, we work directly with global satellite providers through a trusted partner platform to deliver authentic, up-to-date imagery straight from orbit.
