DRONE FACADE DOCUMENTATION FOR LOI 122
We provide engineering firms with the high-resolution aerial imagery, video, and 3D facade models they need to complete Loi 122 compliance assessments.
Request Visual DocumentationVisual Documentation Your Assessments Depend On
Engineering firms conducting Loi 122 facade assessments need detailed, reliable visual data to support their reports. JunoDrone captures that data using professional-grade drones so your team can focus on analysis, not logistics.
High-Resolution Imagery
We deliver crystal-clear photos and 4K video of every facade surface, from every angle. Your engineers see cracks, spalling, sealant failures, and material degradation in detail that ground-level photography cannot match.
3D Facade Models
Using photogrammetry, we generate georeferenced 3D models of the building envelope. Engineers can measure distances, tag defect locations, and attach findings directly to the model for precise reporting.
Fast Turnaround
We capture imagery and deliver your complete data package quickly. Your engineering team gets what they need fast, so compliance timelines stay on track.
Why Engineering Firms Need Drone Documentation
Quebec's Loi 122 requires building owners to have facades assessed by qualified professionals. Engineers conducting these assessments need comprehensive visual data to identify and document defects accurately. Traditional methods create friction. Drones eliminate it.
| Documentation Method | Scaffolding / Boom Lift | JunoDrone Aerial Capture |
|---|---|---|
| Cost to Your Client | $15,000 - $50,000+ (scaffolding rental) | $2,500 - $8,000 (drone capture) |
| Setup Time | 2-4 weeks (install, inspect, remove) | Same-day capture, fast data delivery |
| Safety Risk | High (your engineers work at height) | Zero (ground-based drone operation) |
| Coverage | Limited to scaffolding placement | 100% facade coverage, all elevations |
| Image Quality | Handheld camera, single angle | Ultra-HD from multiple angles + 3D model |
| Historical Comparison | Hard to replicate exact angles | Repeatable flights for year-over-year tracking |
Result for your firm: Your engineers get better data, your clients pay less for access, and nobody climbs scaffolding.
Complete Visual Data Package
We capture the raw data. Your engineers do the analysis. Every deliverable is designed to plug directly into your assessment workflow.
- High-resolution photos of all facade elevations
- 4K video footage with adjustable playback
- Georeferenced 3D facade model (photogrammetry)
- Orthomosaic maps of each building face
- Raw imagery files for your own analysis
- Annotated overview showing capture zones
We can also tailor the data package to your firm's specific workflow. If you need particular angles, resolutions, or file formats, we accommodate that during the planning call.
Learn About Our 3D Models
Simple Process, Fast Delivery
We integrate into your assessment timeline, not the other way around.
Coordination Call
We discuss the building, your engineers' specific data requirements, and timeline. You tell us what you need; we plan the flight accordingly.
On-Site Capture
Our Transport Canada Advanced Operations certified pilots capture all facade data in a single visit, typically 2 to 4 hours. Minimal site disruption.
Fast Delivery
Your engineering team receives the complete data package: photos, video, 3D model, orthomosaics. Ready for analysis and report integration.
Why Engineering Firms Work With JunoDrone
Transport Canada Certified
Advanced Operations Pilot Certificate. We're permitted to fly in controlled airspace and near buildings in dense urban areas like downtown Montreal. Fully insured for commercial operations.
Repeat Partnership Model
We work with engineering firms on an ongoing basis. As your Loi 122 inspection volume grows, we scale with you. Consistent quality, consistent turnaround, consistent contact.
Your Brand, Our Data
We provide the visual documentation. You deliver the engineering assessment. We stay behind the scenes. Your client relationship stays yours.
How This Benefits Your Firm
- Lower access costs for your clients: Drone capture vs. scaffolding saves your clients $10,000 to $40,000 per building. You deliver better service at lower cost.
- Faster project turnaround: fast data delivery vs. weeks of scaffolding coordination. You close assessments faster and move on to the next project.
- Better documentation quality: 3D models with tagged defect locations. Your reports become more defensible and detailed.
- Zero safety liability for access: Nobody from your team works at height. The drone captures everything from the ground.
- Repeatable year-over-year tracking: Same flight paths produce consistent comparisons, which strengthens your long-term assessment quality.
What Our Imagery Documents
Our drone captures provide the visual evidence your engineers need to identify and report on common facade conditions:
Surface Defects
Cracks, spalling, discoloration, efflorescence, and material degradation visible in ultra-HD resolution.
Water Intrusion Indicators
Sealant failures, joint deterioration, staining patterns, and moisture damage signs documented across the full envelope.
Structural Elements
Masonry and cladding condition, window/door frame integrity, mechanical penetrations, and balcony/parapet conditions.
Your engineers interpret the findings. We make sure they have every angle, every surface, every detail they need to do it right.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. We provide the visual documentation (aerial imagery, video, and 3D models) that supports your engineering team's assessment. The professional inspection, analysis, and compliance reporting remains with your firm. We capture the data; you do the engineering.
Yes. All imagery and 3D models we deliver are yours to use in your reports, presentations, and regulatory filings. We provide high-resolution originals in standard formats (JPEG, TIFF, MP4, OBJ, LAS) that integrate directly into your documentation workflow.
We hold Transport Canada's Advanced Operations Pilot Certificate, which authorizes flights in controlled airspace and near people. Most Loi 122 buildings are in downtown or urban zones; we're specifically certified for those environments. We handle all NAV Canada coordination and airspace authorization.
Absolutely. During the coordination call, your lead engineer tells us exactly what they need: particular elevations, known problem areas, specific angles, or close-up detail on certain zones. We plan the flight mission around your requirements.
We work with firms on ongoing, multi-building programs. If you're handling Loi 122 assessments for a portfolio of buildings, we can batch schedule flights and provide volume pricing. Many firms build drone documentation into their standard assessment workflow.
Typically within 3 to 5 business days. For urgent assessments, we can often accommodate same-week scheduling. Weather may affect timing, but we maintain flexible scheduling and reschedule at no additional cost if conditions prevent a safe flight.
3D facade models are included in our standard documentation package. We generate them using photogrammetry from the same imagery used for your photos and video. No additional flights or cost. Learn more about our 3D modeling capabilities.
