Winnebago County released a storm damage viewer built from drone images taken on 29 July 2026 — two days after the tornado, before most cleanup had started.

Open the storm damage viewer

It compares before-and-after imagery side by side, so you can show the condition of a property immediately after the storm against how it looked before.

Why this matters for your claim

The most common documentation problem after a tornado is that people cleaned up first and photographed second. That is a completely reasonable thing to do when your yard is full of debris and it is about to rain again — but it means the worst of the damage no longer exists by the time an adjuster arrives.

This imagery is dated, third-party, and official. That combination is far harder for an insurer to argue with than a homeowner's phone photo, and it is worth citing specifically if you are told your damage looks less severe than you have described.

Use it if:

• You tarped, cleared or started repairs before taking photographs
• Your phone was lost or damaged in the storm and your photos went with it
• You need to show roof damage and cannot safely get up there
• An adjuster's assessment does not match what you saw on 27 July

What it does and does not show

• Covers the Village of Fox Crossing, City of Menasha and City of Neenah. It does not cover Appleton or Grand Chute
• It shows damage at property scale — a missing roof section, a collapsed outbuilding, downed trees. It is not a substitute for close-up photographs of specific damage, cracks, or water intrusion
• It is a snapshot of 29 July only. Anything that happened after that date, including further collapse or rain damage, will not appear

Storm damage assessments are still ongoing. The county has said it will share verified assessment information with the community once that work is complete.

The imagery was flown by a partnership of Calumet County, the City of De Pere, East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, Menasha Police Department, Outagamie County Land & Water Conservation, the Town of Grand Chute, and Winnebago County Land & Water Conservation. The viewer was built by Winnebago County GIS with East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission and the Village of Fox Crossing.

A local drone service based in the Fox Valley, offering aerial photography and video of roof and property damage suitable for submitting with an insurance claim.

Call to ask about availability, turnaround and pricing — demand for this is high across the damage path right now, so book early if you need it.

Ask them for high-resolution stills as well as video, and for files you can download and keep rather than only a link, so the evidence stays with you.

Before you pay for a flight, check whether you need one. Winnebago County has published a free drone survey flown on 29 July — two days after the tornado, before most cleanup — covering Fox Crossing, Menasha and Neenah. See "See your property from the air" under Report Your Damage. If your property is in it, you may already have dated aerial evidence at no cost.

Paying for a flight still makes sense when you need current condition rather than 29 July, higher resolution than a survey pass, or coverage outside those three municipalities.

The FAA restriction over Menasha ended on 1 August, so ordinary rules apply again. Whoever flies for you should be an FAA-certificated Part 107 remote pilot, and it is reasonable to ask to see the certificate.
