Project description
We are evaluating a storefront location and need hard numbers on how many vehicles and pedestrians pass through the intersection next to the site before we commit to a lease and before we decide where to place an entrance sign and a curbside pickup lane. Rather than guessing from a couple of site visits, we want a drone held at a single fixed elevated vantage point above the intersection, framing all four approach legs and the crosswalks in one continuous shot, so every recording session gives us directly comparable footage.
The flight plan should cover at least two separate sessions: one spanning the morning commute window and one spanning the evening rush, plus a shorter midday session to capture the lull between peaks. Each session needs several consecutive hours of stable hover recording — battery swaps are fine as long as the camera framing is repositioned to the identical spot and height each time, so the count stays consistent across clips. We also want a short weekend-afternoon session, since foot traffic on the corner changes noticeably once nearby shops open for the weekend crowd.
After the flights, we need the footage reviewed and turned into a count: vehicles by direction of travel through the intersection (through, left-turn, right-turn) tallied in fifteen-minute intervals, and pedestrians crossing on each crosswalk leg tallied the same way, including a rough split between people walking through versus stopping to look at storefronts. A pause or slowdown pattern near the proposed entrance location is particularly useful to flag.
Deliverables: the raw stabilized video clips organized by session and timestamp, a spreadsheet with the interval-by-interval counts, and a short summary report with simple charts showing flow by hour and by direction, plus a one-paragraph plain-language recommendation on which side of the corner sees heavier combined vehicle-and-pedestrian flow. We plan to use this to support a signage placement decision and a conversation with the landlord about curb access, so the report should be clear enough to hand to a non-technical decision-maker.
Please quote based on four to five total flight sessions across one work week, including a scouting visit to confirm a safe hover position that doesn't block sidewalks or driveways. Local airspace rules and any required flight notification for the area are the operator's responsibility. Prior experience with vehicle or pedestrian counting from aerial footage is a strong plus — please mention any similar work in your proposal along with a sample clip if you have one.
