Contractors continually face hassles that impede their success. Clients want “live” aerial photography that show progress on construction sites, but builders can’t deliver them using traditional flight services. Site inspections take time. Subcontractors argue they’re unable to perform work to their contracted schedule because the site wasn’t ready, leading to eventual schedule delay-based claims (where neither side can prove definitively who is right).
To overcome these challenges, construction project leaders are turning to drones and aerial intelligence.
Aerial intelligence uses data collected by drones and fixed cameras on construction sites to help contractors save time and money. There are four key benefits:
PrecisionHawk offers custom solutions that integrate with their client’s existing internal software systems and project workflows. Also, flight services training ensures that client’s pilots capture data in a way that’s optimal for analysis. By augmenting key processes like data capture, analysis, and visualization, project leaders derive rich, actionable business intelligence.
For contractors who’d like to add drones to their toolset, but don’t need customized development, systems integration or flight support, PrecisionHawk now offers the Smarter Construction Package with Roof Report Algorithm. The package includes a drone, PrecisionHawk’s suite of advanced sensors, plus integrated flight and data analytics software. Available as a monthly subscription, contractors will get the latest hardware and software as they become available.
The Roof Report algorithm accelerates building and site management processes. Here’s how it works:
Compared to traditional surveying methods, contractors using the Roof Report save time, reduce risk and eliminate inconsistencies.
The algorithm will be available alongside PrecisionHawk’s growing library of turnkey analysis tools in the PrecisionMapper AlgoMarket.
