What we Do
Imagine if we could digitally clone the world around you and everyone in it. And with AI, those digital clones could come to life, replicating your gestures, voices, and activities.
That is the future we are moving towards. Today, at Dronícola, we digitize real-world environments and objects with great realism for culture, media and technology. We create digital twins ready for VFX, games, XR simulations and cultural preservation.
From crumbling structures and inaccessible landscapes to vast terrains spanning hundreds of hectares, we push advanced 3D digitization to the limit, transforming any environment—no matter its complexity—into an optimized digital twin ready for exploration, preservation, or integration into interactive experiences.
🚀 What we digitize today will come to life tomorrow.

Market Needs We Are Meeting
Moving towards this vision, we are already addressing many market needs that remain unmet today. Sectors such as entertainment, advertising and heritage conservation require more accessible, efficient and accurate digital environments. This is where Dronícola brings a unique solution.
🎥 Virtual Production & VFX
🚫 The challenge
CGI environments are costly and time-intensive. Manual modeling takes weeks or months, requiring skilled artists to recreate textures, lighting, and details. Even major productions often rely on generic environments due to tight schedules.
✅ Our solution
Dronícola captures real-world locations with optimized photogrammetry, delivering high-quality, ready-to-use 3D assets faster.
✔ Faster than traditional modeling → Digitizes entire environments in days, reducing production time.
✔ Unmatched realism → Preserves intricate real-world details.
✔ Optimized for Unreal Engine & Unity → Seamless integration, reducing post-processing.
✔ Cost-effective alternative → Cuts production costs while enhancing visual fidelity.

📍 Use Case: Digital Twin of Estación de Gascones
The historic Estación de Gascones-Buitrago in Madrid posed safety and logistical challenges for film production. On-site shoots required costly safety measures, insurance, and crew transport.
✅ Dronícola’s Digital Twin Solution:
✔ Reduced costs & shoot time → No need to transport the film crew.
✔ Enhanced safety → Lowered accident risks and insurance expenses.
✔ Efficient 3D asset creation → Replaced manual modeling with precise 3D scans.
🌐 Immersive Media and Digital Marketing
🚫 The challenge
Traditional advertising is costly and logistically complex, limiting creativity and accessibility. Digital ads often lack interactivity, reducing engagement. Integrating realistic environments into XR, VR, and VFX is expensive and time-consuming, while the absence of reusable models disrupts visual consistency across platforms.
✅ Our solution
Dronícola enhances advertising with photorealistic digital twins, replacing real locations and offering:
✔ Lower costs & faster production → Eliminates physical shoots.
✔ Immersive advertising → Digital twins ready for high engagement campaigns in AR, VR, WebXR and the metaverse.
✔ Full creative control → Adjust lighting, settings, and effects freely.
✔ Photorealistic quality → Optimized for VFX, Unreal Engine, & Unity.
✔ Scalable & reusable content → Adaptable 3D models for video, social media, and digital ads.

🚀 Use Case: Climbing Wall Ad
Dronícola created a photorealistic digital twin of a climbing wall, eliminating the need for physical shoots.
✔ Realistic ads → Seamless integration into commercials and social media.
✔ WebXR & AR experiences → Users explore routes with sponsored products.
✔ Full creative control → Adjust lighting and weather without reshoots.
✔ Lower costs & production time → No travel, rentals, or logistics.
✔ Adaptable content → For social media, web, XR, and interactive marketing.
🏛️ Cultural Heritage and Preservation
🚫 The challenge
Historic sites are fragile, making documentation difficult without causing damage. Traditional photography lacks depth and interactivity, limiting its use in education, museums, and virtual reality.
Many sites remain inaccessible due to location, funding constraints, or legal barriers.
✅ Our solution
📌 High-precision 3D digitization with photogrammetry for non-invasive preservation.
📌 Global accessibility through VR and WebXR for remote exploration of historical sites.
📌 Museum & education integration with interactive learning experiences.
📌 Long-term protection against disasters, erosion, and urbanization.
🔹 Use Case: The Dolmen de Lácara in VR
Located in Extremadura, Spain, this remarkable megalithic tomb faces natural deterioration, restricted accessibility, and conservation challenges. Dronícola's solution provides:
✔ A precise digital twin for archaeological study and research.
✔ Global access through interactive WebXR & VR exploration.
✔ An accurate digital reference for future restoration efforts.
Why Dronícola?
At Dronícola, we don’t just solve problems—we digitize the inaccessible, pushing the limits of reality capture.
We work in extreme and challenging environments:
✔ Operate in unstable ruins, cliffs, collapsed structures, and hard-to-reach areas.
✔ Handle high temperatures, low light conditions, confined spaces, and remote locations.
✔ Adapt our methodology to ensure precision regardless of the challenge.
We scan large-scale and complex assets:
✔ Digitalized everything from abandoned villages and rugged mountains to hundreds of hectares of terrain.
✔ Specialize in massive asset digitization without sacrificing accuracy or efficiency.
🚀 If an environment is difficult to digitize, Dronícola is the solution.
Our Technology
Dronícola is a cutting-edge photogrammetry company specializing in large scale high-precision digital twins. Using industry-leading photogrammetry and LiDAR technology, we digitize a wide range of assets—from insects to architectural landmarks—with unmatched realism and efficiency.
We integrate LiDAR with aerial and terrestrial photogrammetry, employing state-of-the-art laser scanners, drones, and high-resolution cameras to capture even the most complex environments.
Our digital twins power 3D animations, video games, and immersive experiences, including virtual filmmaking, VFX, and XR applications (VR, AR, MR).
