Terrestrial LiDAR Scanning is usually better for capturing precise geometry, while photogrammetry is often stronger for visual context and texture. The right choice depends on the site, the deliverables, and how the data will be used. In some projects, the two methods are combined so the team gets both measurable geometry and clear imagery.
Timing depends on scope, access, weather, site conditions, and the deliverables requested. A small, accessible site can move faster than a complex occupied property or a project that needs more coordination. AMI reviews those factors before scheduling so the timeline is realistic.
The biggest mistake is requesting a scan without defining the final use of the data. That can lead to the wrong deliverable, missing control needs, or a point cloud that is harder to use than expected. It also helps to confirm access, safety constraints, and who will receive the files before work begins.
Pricing depends on site size, complexity, access, control requirements, and the deliverables requested. A simple interior scan is not priced the same as a larger multi-area project with processing, sections, or CAD-ready outputs. The most reliable way to get a quote is to share the site details and the intended use of the data.
