Drones allow you to monitor the evolution of a construction site’s progress via a process known as “construction aerial progress monitoring”. This includes regularly scheduled drone flights to collect project data workflows and document progress and changes, ensuring that the scope continues as specified in the agreement.
The big benefit to using a drone in construction is getting quick, accurate visual data of a site. This data can then be used in a number of ways. It can be shared with clients, with internal teams, used to help improve safety, and to focus efforts toward completing a project faster.
Pre-planning.
Reporting to customers.
Identifying safety concerns.
Tracking progress and identifying potential problems/delays.
Creating 3D and orthomosaic maps, which can be used for all of the above purposes, as well as to measure stockpiles of various materials on the construction site.
