Construction progress aerial photography provides consistent, high-quality visual documentation of a project from start to finish. By capturing images from above at regular intervals, stakeholders gain a clear, comprehensive view of site development, layout changes, and structural milestones. These images help track progress, identify potential issues early, and improve communication between contractors, developers, and clients.
The 111th has participated in some of California’s most significant construction projects. These include:
Apple
Levi’s Stadium
California High-Speed Rail
Salesforce
Google
Over 100 solar sites
And many more
Whether your site is large or small, aerial photography of construction progress documents the site’s development, ensuring owners, investors, and banks that the project stays on schedule.
In most cases, we will use our manned aircraft for your aerial photos that are ideal for reporting, marketing, and archiving purposes. They offer perspectives that are impossible to achieve from the ground, making them invaluable tools for presentations, inspections, and project management. With customizable flight schedules and GPS-coordinated repeatability, we ensure your imagery is consistent, accurate, and aligned with your project’s timeline.
It’s a visual documentation service that captures high-resolution aerial images or video of a job site at regular intervals to track construction progress over time.

What types of projects do you cover?
We photograph everything from residential and commercial builds to infrastructure, industrial sites, and large-scale developments.
Do you use drones or manned aircraft?
Both! Most progress shoots use airplanes for their precision and affordability, but we can alsouse drones forprojects when requested.
Do you provide image comparison over time?
Yes. We can align images from each visit to show side-by-side comparisons or create time-lapse sequences that highlight changes throughout the build.

Yes. We are fully insured, and for our construction progress clients, we can add you to our policy as an “also insured.” We also handle any necessary airspace authorizations or waivers.
