Plenty of operators can fly a site. GDI understands what it's looking at.
Grace Development Intelligence is led by David Grace, who comes to aerial mapping from real estate development and construction, not the other way around. His background covers residential and commercial development, real estate investment, and the permitting and regulatory side of construction, with a master's degree in real estate and construction management.
That means site data gets read in its commercial context: what a change on the ground means for the schedule, the budget, the next draw, or the next decision. Reports answer the questions owners and project teams actually ask: what's done, what moved, what needs attention, and what the record shows.

Three disciplines, one point of contact.
GDI brings all three to every project, so the data is captured well and interpreted by someone who knows how projects get built and financed.
Real estate development
Knows how owners, investors, and lenders judge a project: budget, schedule, draws, and risk. Reporting is framed around those decisions.
Construction and project management
Understands sequencing, sitework, and how delays build, so reports focus on what affects the job rather than what simply looks different.
Aerial and geospatial technology
Detailed aerial maps, 3D site models, and repeat captures that turn site conditions into measurable, comparable data.
Site information you can act on.
Developers and owners
A clear, independent view of where the project stands, without driving to the site, in terms that connect to budget and schedule.
Contractors
Progress, quantities, and discrepancies flagged by someone who understands the work, early enough to act on.
Lenders and investors
Dated, objective documentation to support draw reviews and investor updates.
Design teams and other stakeholders
Current site conditions and design-versus-built comparisons that keep everyone working from the same picture.
Turn data into
better decisions.
GDI pairs aerial site data with construction and real estate development experience to turn observations into professional analysis, clear reporting, and an objective third-party record.
