Marseille concentrates an unusual architectural variety: the Vieux-Port and 17th-century townhouses of Le Panier, Haussmann co-ownership buildings from Préfecture to Castellane, the UNESCO-listed Le Corbusier ensemble in Sainte-Marguerite, the industrial brownfields of Euroméditerranée, the autonomous port and activity zones from La Joliette to L'Estaque. Each typology has its own survey constraints.
ARPEO operates across the city with a Leica BLK360 G2 laser scanner and a DJI Matrice 4E RTK drone. Accuracy ±2 mm at 10 m for the scanner, ±2 cm for drone photogrammetry. Revit, IFC 4.0, DWG or E57 point cloud delivery within 15 days of acquisition.
Our Marseille missions are operated by a DGAC-certified drone pilot (open category A1/A3 + specific S1/S2) trained on Leica Cyclone REGISTER. Priced quote within 48 h, mobilization within 5 working days.

— FAQ
Frequently asked questions in Marseille
Do you operate in central Marseille despite the difficult parking?
Yes. For hyper-center missions (Vieux-Port, Panier, Préfecture), we arrive with a compact utility vehicle + backpack scanner. If the co-ownership has no parking, we plan a buffer day. Parking fees billed at cost on the quote.
Can a drone fly in central Marseille?
Marseille is partly in a CTR zone (Marignane air traffic control). Any drone mission in an urban area or within 3.5 km of a heliport requires a prior declaration via AlphaTango (DGAC). ARPEO handles these authorizations within the package. Processing time: 5 to 10 days depending on the zone.
What accuracy for a 3D scan of a Haussmann co-ownership building?
On a typical R+5 Marseille building, the Leica BLK360 G2 scanner delivers ±2 mm at 10 m. Sufficient to produce a 1/50 ABF-compliant DWG plan, a Revit LOD 300 model, and to track structural defects over multiple years (cloud-to-cloud comparison).
What is the lead time between quote request and acquisition in Marseille?
Priced quote within 48 h. Acquisition possible within 5 to 10 working days depending on schedule. For urgent missions (claim, judicial expertise), we offer a priority slot within 72 h with surcharge.
Do you work with Marseille's heritage architects?
Yes. We have delivered surveys matched to ABF requirements for several Marseille heritage architecture practices (Vieil Marseille protected area, MH perimeters). Deliverable format suited: 1/50 ortho-facades, vectorial elevations, high-resolution photogrammetric restitution.
