Terrestrial LiDAR scanning captures a dense 3D record of visible site conditions, while a traditional field survey is usually focused on specific measured features and mapped deliverables. The better choice depends on the project goal, the level of detail needed, and how the data will be used. In many cases, the two methods work well together.
Cost depends on site size, access, complexity, control needs, processing effort, and the final deliverables. A small verification scan is not priced the same as a coordinated dataset for design or as-built comparison. The fastest way to get a useful estimate is to share the site location, scope, and file format requirements.
Before the scan, the team reviews access, scope, timing, and deliverables. During the scan, field collection is organized around coverage of the areas that matter most, and the site may need brief access coordination. Afterward, the data is processed and delivered in the agreed format, such as point clouds, drawings, sections, or surface models.
AMI stands behind a professional, scope-based workflow, but no surveying or scanning provider can guarantee every downstream decision made from the data. Support after delivery depends on the project agreement and the questions that come up during review. If something needs clarification, it is best to raise it early so the deliverable can be checked against the original scope.
Yes, AMI supports projects throughout Florida and select projects in Alabama, depending on scope and site conditions. The company is based in Jacksonville and regularly works across Northeast Florida and statewide Florida projects. Availability always depends on travel, access, weather, and the requested deliverables.
