Residential 3D Laser Scanning, Modeling, and Drawings

GDS provides residential 3D laser scanning, modeling, and drawings that deliver clarity for planning, approvals, and construction. We support homeowners, HOAs, contractors, and architects by orchestrating precise data that aligns with permitting and design review requirements.

Boundary and permitting support

We capture exact site conditions and provide as built documentation that assists with boundary and permitting needs. Our deliverables are prepared to align with agency and board standards, streamlining the approval process.

Orthomosaics and aerial imagery

We produce detailed orthomosaic imagery that gives a full view of property conditions. These files support planning, landscaping, compliance, and documentation required by boards and agencies.

LiDAR line of sight and field of view

Our LiDAR scans provide visibility, terrain, and drainage data. This information helps evaluate privacy, erosion, and stormwater considerations while aligning with the needs of boards, contractors, and property owners.

Topographical data for design reviews

We prepare topographical documentation of contours, slopes, and elevations. This data supports design review boards and HOAs, ensuring accurate information is available for decision making.

Custom millwork and interior scanning

When cabinetry, trim, or furnishings must be replicated, our precision scans generate digital files for CNC production. High end subcontractors and builders rely on this data for fit and finish that reduces rework.

Estate and residential planning

For estates, custom homes, and new residential builds, we deliver complete property scans. Our data allows multiple design concepts to be evaluated against real conditions, giving owners and architects confidence in their choices.
