Construction Progress Monitoring

With the use of drones, it is now easier than ever to automate progress tracking on construction sites.

Full View will survey, photograph and video your development from its infancy to completion on a regular basis or at key increments. This will enable stakeholders to access vital data which will contribute to constructive and informed decision-making. It will also help to ensure that construction is finished on time and within budget.

Benefits of using drones in construction progress monitoring

We understand that progress on a construction site must be monitored to ensure the project remains on schedule. Our drone-led construction surveys allow us to capture repeatable data. This provides stakeholders with the unique opportunity to compare images taken from exactly the same position in the sky across multiple points in the construction lifecycle.

Using drones in construction progress monitoring allows you to:

Cut costs
Improve decision making
Use repeatable data
Eliminate access issues
Keep stakeholders informed
Set targets and benchmarks

How does it work?

Our expert drone operators will visit your site to collect images and videos at agreed periods of time throughout the lifecycle of the project. We will then provide you with vital sets of data to keep stakeholders informed of the progress of the construction site. This will include:

High-resolution images
High-quality video
Photogrammetry - 2D maps and 3D models
Timelapse
Ground elevation models

Our drone-led construction surveys will provide you with key insights into the progress of your project. Using the shareable and usable data provided, you will feel confident that the decisions you make are supported by reliable, accurate information.

Traditional methods of construction vs. using a drone

Construction progress monitoring using the traditional method requires boots on the ground. It relies on an inspector being able to walk around the site, recording their findings. When you compare this to using a drone, it is not hard to see which method is more accurate and reliable. Drones use high-quality imagery and can cover huge areas including those that are not accessible. For an inspector to cover the kind of ground that a drone can could take days or weeks (depending on the hours allocated). Even then, there are areas that may not be accessible. Traditional methods also leave open the possibility of overlooking potential problems and can create unreliable results in the interpretation of data. Because a drone uses images, there is no room for interpretation.

By using a drone to carry out construction progress monitoring, we are:

Cost - effective. Cut out the middleman and get straight to the data. Very few human resources or pieces of equipment mean you save on costs.
Quick. Fewer people and fewer resources mean less time.
Accurate. Images don’t lie. The results cannot be interpreted as anything other than what they show.
Unlimited. There is no area that a drone cannot reach. Even the most dangerous of sites to access by foot can be accessed via the air with ease. You can trust that your report and analysis will include data for every inch of the site.
