For engineering, survey, and drone firms

Deliver more with the expertise you already have.

BaseState runs the analysis and drafts the reports your clients need, so your team spends its time reviewing and delivering, not processing.

How it works

From your data to your client's report.

  1. 1. Bring the data

    Drone surveys, LiDAR, site records, and what your client needs answered.

  2. 2. BaseState does the analysis

    Stormwater simulation, asset records, and map findings, run on our side.

  3. 3. Your team reviews

    Check every finding against its source and approve the report.

  4. 4. Deliver

    A PDF in your format, or an interactive report your client can replay.

Start with one client, add the next on the same setup, and pay for the clients you run. AI that drafts the whole report from your client's statement of work is opening by waitlist on BaseState Survey.

Built on BaseState

We started by doing it ourselves.

Our stormwater service began with our own experience in engineering, robotics, and infrastructure. It shows what a firm can deliver on BaseState: survey data, simulation, AI, an engineer's review, and the client's report in one workflow.

  1. Find the right data

    Ask about a storm. The AI finds the rainfall data and sets up the scenario.

  2. Change the scene

    Adjust conditions, navigate to problem areas, and test changes in the same conversation.

  3. Review the answer

    Inspect the modeled results and sources, then carry the findings and assumptions into a report.

Can we just collect and hand off data?

Yes. Use the project for your crew’s imagery and field data, then hand the work to the team doing the review and analysis.

Can I work on my own?

Yes. Take a project from existing data to a report yourself, and bring others in when you need them.

Where does your team help?

Contact us when you need help with data intake, the handoff, analysis tools, or preparing the deliverable.
