Pre & Post-Storm Coverage

Hurricane Documentation
That Wins Claims

GPS-timestamped aerial imagery collected before and after a storm gives your insurer exactly what they need — and leaves no room for dispute. We mobilize within 24 hours of storm passage.

Document First. Then Let the Adjuster In.

Post-storm scenes change fast. Cleanup crews, contractors, and weather can alter the damage picture within days. Aerial documentation on Day 1 locks in the evidence before anything moves.

Why Drone Documentation Changes the Outcome

Irrefutable Pre-Storm Baseline

Pre-storm survey proves pre-existing condition of every surface. Insurers can't attribute new damage to prior defects.

GPS + Timestamp Chain of Custody

Every photo carries embedded EXIF GPS coordinates and timestamp — admissible evidence in Florida courts and insurance arbitration.

Access Where Adjusters Can't Go

High-rise facades, damaged roof edges, and debris-covered areas — our drone accesses them all without scaffolding or unsafe access.

Orthomosaic Damage Map

Post-storm survey generates a georeferenced overhead map showing exact damage extent — ideal for HOA boards and public adjusters.

24-Hour Mobilization

We keep standing agreements with South Florida HOAs to prioritize post-storm response. Retainer clients get same-day callback.

Public Adjuster Ready

Reports formatted to complement PA workflows. We work alongside your adjuster to build the strongest possible claim package.

What You Receive

Every hurricane documentation package includes:

Full-Res Image Archive

All raw DNG + JPEG photos, GPS-tagged, organized by facade and flight date. Delivered via secure download link.

Annotated PDF Report

Side-by-side pre/post comparison views with annotated damage zones, classified by type and severity.

Orthomosaic Map (GeoTIFF)

Georeferenced overhead view of the property post-storm. Importable into any GIS or CAD tool used by your contractor.

Flight Log & FAA Record

Pilot certification, FAA LAANC authorization, flight log — the chain of custody documentation insurers require.

Damage Inventory CSV

Structured spreadsheet of each identified damage item with location, dimensions estimate, and severity classification.

Certificate of Insurance

Fully insured — COI on request, naming your HOA or property as additional insured. Provided before we fly, every time.

What Insurance Adjusters Want to See

Adjusters need a specific type of documentation to process a storm claim without disputes. Our deliverables are structured to match that checklist exactly.

GPS Coordinates on Every Image

EXIF-embedded GPS coordinates prove exactly where each photo was taken. No ambiguity about which surface is depicted.

Timestamps Tied to Storm Date

Every image carries a timestamp. Adjusters can confirm photos were taken post-storm, before any cleanup, establishing the damage record.

Sequential Coverage — No Gaps

Systematic flight patterns capture every face of the building in sequence. Adjusters can follow the image set from corner to corner with no missing sections.

Annotated Damage Markers

AI-flagged damage zones annotated on each image — impact damage, water intrusion points, displaced roofing material, facade breaches.

Pre/Post Comparison Views

When a pre-storm baseline exists, the annotated PDF includes side-by-side comparisons showing exactly what changed — the strongest possible claim support.

Chain of Custody Documentation

FAA Part 107 certification, LAANC authorization records, and flight logs included. Admissible in Florida insurance arbitration and litigation.

Schedule Before Hurricane Season

Pre-Storm Baseline Surveys

The single most valuable thing you can do for a future storm claim is document your building's condition before a storm hits. A timestamped pre-storm baseline proves that damage observed after the storm didn't exist before it.

Without a baseline, insurers can attribute new storm damage to pre-existing deterioration — reducing or denying your claim. With one, there's no debate about what changed.

  • Baseline valid for 12 months — schedule once per year before June
  • Same deliverable package as post-storm documentation
  • Stored securely — accessible immediately after a storm event
  • Residential from $350 · Commercial from $750 · Retainer clients get same-day callback
Why the Baseline Changes Everything

Without baseline

Insurer attributes pre-existing spalling and cracking to storm damage category — claim disputed, settlement reduced.

With baseline

Pre/post comparison shows exactly which damage is new. Insurer has no grounds to dispute. Claim processes at full assessed value.

How Fast Can You Mobilize?

We prioritize storm documentation requests. Same-week availability across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties — and same-day callback for retainer clients.
