Miami workflows
What the work looks like here
Miami-Dade work concentrates on vertical construction, facade and structural documentation, port and marine infrastructure, and major expressway reconstruction such as the I-395 signature bridge programme running to 2029. Between towers GNSS becomes unreliable, so terrestrial scanning and handheld SLAM do most of the interior and structure capture while GNSS handles control and site work.
Talk through your configuration
Local market
The Miami market
Miami work is dense, vertical and coastal at the same time. High-rise construction, port and marine infrastructure, and major expressway reconstruction run alongside a permitting regime where elevation is not just a survey value but a regulatory threshold. That combination makes vertical control the defining technical issue in this market.
Local fit
Set up for how you work in Florida
Works with your Florida RTK network
Our GNSS receivers speak RTCM and NTRIP and connect to the Florida Permanent Reference Network operated by FDOT, as well as commercial networks and a base-and-rover setup. Tell us your correction source and we confirm compatibility before you buy.
Miami airspace and Part 107
Commercial drone work in the US falls under FAA Part 107. Miami International, Opa-locka and Miami Executive put much of the county in controlled airspace where LAANC authorization applies, and port and cruise terminal areas carry additional restrictions. Check current requirements with the FAA and the facility operator before operating.
The datum trap in Florida
In Miami the vertical number is a permitting threshold, not just a survey value, and there are two live traps. NAVD88 elevations in South Florida run roughly 0.6 to 1.6 feet lower than the same point on the older NGVD29, and legacy plats and flood documents across Miami-Dade are still on NGVD29. Separately, Miami-Dade County Flood Criteria sets a minimum of 6.0 feet NAVD88 across all areas unless a higher elevation is indicated, and that criteria is being re-cut against sea level rise scenarios out to 2100.
Correction networks operating in this market

We confirm which network you run and verify the receiver configuration against it before quoting. We do not publish mountpoints or credentials, and we do not claim compatibility we have not checked.

FAQ
Buying survey gear in Miami
What vertical datum should I use in Miami-Dade?
NAVD88 is the datum in official use, and Miami-Dade County Flood Criteria is expressed in feet NAVD88 with a minimum of 6.0 feet across all areas unless a higher elevation is indicated. Be careful with legacy documents: NAVD88 elevations in South Florida run roughly 0.6 to 1.6 feet lower than the same point on NGVD29, so carrying the wrong datum onto a finished-floor elevation can mis-set a building by over a foot.
Who regulates land surveyors in Florida?
Surveyors and mappers in Florida are regulated by the Board of Professional Surveyors and Mappers, administered by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, under Florida Statutes Chapter 472. This is a common point of confusion because most other Florida professions sit under a different department.
How does support work if you are not based in Miami?
We do not run a Miami storefront. We supply and support GNSS receivers, scanners and drones for South Florida crews from within North America, with genuine equipment, the full manufacturer warranty, and service arranged through the manufacturer network.

Who you are dealing with
The people specifying your configuration have run this equipment on real sites, not just sold it. That is why a quote comes back with a recommendation and a reason, rather than a line item.
- Authorized CHC Navigation dealer for Canada and the United States.
- North American stock, so availability is a real answer and not a transatlantic guess.
- Every specification sourced. Where a figure is a manufacturer claim under their own test conditions, we say so.
