Construction

The construction industry is based on the relationships between the sole companies and their project stakeholders. Enhanced technology and digital tools cannot replace people,  but when it comes to raising the bar in quality, reducing costs, mitigating safety risks, and improving decision-making, we’ve found that drones present an increasingly attractive opportunity  to achieve this. Collectively, the intelligence we gather has allowed construction companies to more efficiently deploy resources around a job site, minimise potential issues, trim costs, limit delays, and comply with health and safety on a higher level.

Key Services

Site Inspections

Most building surveys require visibility of the building’s roof to identify its condition and assess any defects. Avoid costly and time-consuming scaffolding set ups and quickly access the target site or building with a drone in an efficient, economic, and safe manner. During inspection we can also identify hot and cool spots using a thermo imagery – something used to find water leaks or electrical faults.

Project Progress Reports

Construction progress reports are often prepared monthly to record site progress against the project programme. These reports often involve the surveyor or contract administrator taking multiple photographs of different parts of the site. A regular drone flight can provide a faster way of recording and visualising project progress. Through a series of aerial shots and time-lapse photography, project stakeholders can be given a better insight into the progress that has been made. This can also be used to showcase housing projects or promotional material.

3D and Topography Mapping

Quickly generate a 3D or topographical map of any site, even an inaccessible one. Together, this intelligence brings together all the information about every component of a building into one place. It makes it possible for anyone to access that information for any purpose. We can also generate contour lines to enable management of environmental changes such as natural resources and produce precise and timely maps and models.

Aerial Mapping and Orthomosiacs

Provide your work site with high quality, up to date mapping. and increase the value and accuracy of your land whether it’s for sale, regional council purposes, or personal use and identification. E.g. site boundaries, land titles, asset imagery, hazard identification etc.

Quantitative Land and Volumetric Surveying

We can provide your construction site with total station (TST) surveying. Tying this in with aerial mapping using ground control points, the end result is an authentic quantitative map of a target area, accurate to within centimetres. We use drones to provide definitive volumetric surveying of any stockpile resources you attain.
