Additional visibility
Aerial viewpoints can improve visual access to roof geometry, exteriors, sites, and construction progress.
Better tools.
Human judgment.
Technology has a job at MeridianVault: improve visibility, documentation, organization, and client understanding—not replace the inspector.

a safer perspective.
Purposeful evidence
High-resolution imagery creates an organized visual record that can support reporting and comparison.
Reduced exposure
Drone use can reduce unnecessary ladder and roof exposure when aerial documentation is appropriate.
FAA Part 107
Commercial drone operations are performed within applicable FAA requirements, airspace, weather, site, and scope limits.

Tools with a clear job.
The property and agreed scope determine which tools are appropriate for your inspection.
DJI Air 3
Aerial photographs can document roof surfaces, exterior conditions, site layout, and construction progress when flight conditions permit.
Discuss roof documentation ↗Thermal observations
Infrared imaging shows surface-temperature patterns. Observations are considered alongside visual evidence and property conditions; patterns alone do not confirm a defect.
Review relevant training ↗Photographic evidence
Report photographs help locate an observation and explain its context. Findings distinguish observed conditions, access limitations, and recommended next steps.
Explore report demonstrations ↗Drone and infrared tools cannot reveal every concealed condition and do not replace physical testing, specialist evaluation, or professional inspector judgment. Their use depends on the property, agreed scope, access, conditions, and applicable requirements.
