 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend North Alabama Investigative Services! They deliver detailed, professional results and make sure you receive exactly what you need. Their work ethic, communication, and professionalism are outstanding, and their documentation was excellent. They provided everything we needed for court, and I’m truly grateful for their help during a difficult time. They are absolutely worth the investment, and you will not regret having them on your side. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy PI who will show up and follow through with what is required when court is involved .

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I called several P.I. places in the Alabama area. Most of the numbers I googled were disconnected, very frustrating as I had time sensitive matters needing immediate attention. Anyway, this place quickly returned my call and took the time to help us with our legal matter. Very friendly, knowledgeable and empathetic to our situation. The guy even gave some helpful tips to navigate the legal system. Would definitely recommend!

We provide construction drone services, commercial drone photography, industrial training videos, 2D and 3D mapping photogrammetry, and marketing videos for advertising campaigns using professional indoor photography and narrated video tours of manufacturing facilities.

Do you offer tours using professional FPV drones in the Huntsville Alabama area?

Absolutely! We specialize in providing a comprehensive range of services. Our team is well-equipped and experienced in efficiently capturing both exterior and interior media. With professional ground and lighting equipment, we ensure exceptional quality in addition to our aerial photography and drone video services.

How do you capture large areas (greater than 100 acres) in a single image and can you use this to measure items in the image?

We use enterprise-level drones with high-resolution cameras and mechanical shutters for distortion-free imagery. For 2D mapping, we stitch hundreds of images into a seamless orthomosaic, ideal for land surveys or agriculture. For 3D modeling, multi-angle images create accurate, detailed models for topographic analysis or visualization. The mechanical shutter ensures sharp results, enabling fast data collection—often completed in one day—with processed 2D maps or 3D models delivered in 24-48 hours. Georeferenced outputs allow precise measurements of distances, areas, or volumes for stockpile assessments, crop monitoring, or infrastructure planning.

Working safely without hindering production is our priority and we have years of experience successfully completing hundreds of projects safely in construction, industrial, and manufacturing environments.

Can you provide drone services in dirty or difficult environments?

Yes, it may be possible, but it also may not. It will depend on many variables like budget, timing, production interests and sometimes many more issues. Our team is accustomed to using equipment safely in challenging conditions while performing industrial photography and happy to consult with you to find an optimum solution.

What is an sUAS (aka: Aerial Drone)

According to the FAA, a small Unmanned Aerial System (AKA: drone, quadcopter, or UAV / Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is any unmanned aircraft weighing less than 55 pounds, except for those used solely for recreation or hobby purposes.

Will the FAA fine me for operating a drone without a Part 107 sUAS License?

Yes, fines are possible, but it would depend on whether you’re flying for fun or business.

If you’re flying “recreationally” where you will not be using it in any way as a tool for a business, you do not need a Part 107 pilot certificate. However, if you’re flying a drone for any kind of commercial or business activity, a current FAA 107 certificate is required.

Any drone operation used to advance a business or supplement its regular activities is considered commercial under current FAA regulations. This includes real estate aerial photography, using drone imagery for business promotion, capturing construction progress, or conducting agricultural analysis. Operating a drone commercially without proper certification can result in significant penalties. The FAA may impose fines of up to $35,188 per violation for unauthorized commercial drone operations. Additionally, the FAA retains the authority to penalize both companies and individuals for past infractions related to unlicensed commercial drone flights.

How long does quadcopter battery generally last?

Most of ours are rated in the 30 to 50 minute range. Actual flight time is normally lower to maintain a reasonable safety margin. Batteries are quick and easy to swap out and we carry enough capacity for continuous all-day operations.

When is a sUAS required to be registered with the FAA?

Anytime it is used for commercial use under Part 107 or used solely for hobby or recreation and weighs over .55 pounds.

How are images and video delivered?

By various simple options from onsite direct transfer to high speed secure cloud drives and everything in between. In addition, we use specialty delivery services like next day, signature required, and encryption protection. Basic Real Estate Drone Photography images are normally delivered via cloud upload the next business day by noon. Commercial Photography and specialized video production are estimated individually.
