In this video, we will walk you through how The Drone Life monitors the progress of an active construction site starting with a flight demonstration. As we move step by step through the project and we will show you how we monitor changes, we will talk about the benefits to using drones to collect project data, how we document the construction progress, and give you several case studies to use for your own projects.
Using drones for construction progress monitoring is important to ensure the work is moving at the level specified in the building contract. Data collected by drone flights look at establishing the level of completion, identifying and reporting potential changes, locating the status of stored materials, and to ensure the agreed upon construction schedule is being maintained. Once the data is collected and processed a report is created to determine if the site follows the client’s scope of work.
To help you learn how these flights are completed we will go through a narrated flight demonstration and show what data can be collected and for what purposes. You should take into consideration the data you need to collect such as progress monitoring, stockpile measurements, earthwork surveys, 3D maps, pre-construction planning, LIDAR, material reporting and logistics, and orthomosaic maps. Collect only the data you need to save time and money and decide on the frequency you need the data collected, monthly, biweekly, or weekly. In addition to progress monitoring, once the data is collected it can be used to keep stakeholders informed, for marketing the properties, and documentation records for future use.
