Construction Monitoring FAQ — Lawrenceville, GA
How does drone construction monitoring work in Lawrenceville?
We fly your Lawrenceville construction site at scheduled intervals (weekly, monthly, or milestone-based) to capture aerial progress photos, orthomosaics, and volumetric data. Each visit produces comparable datasets for tracking earthwork and structure progress.
Can drones measure earthwork volumes?
Yes. Drone photogrammetry produces accurate surface models that can be differenced between visits to calculate cut/fill volumes, stockpile quantities, and import/export tracking with 2-5% accuracy compared to traditional methods.
What format are the progress reports?
Deliverables include geo-referenced orthomosaics, progress comparison overlays, volumetric reports, and a web-based viewer for stakeholders. All data is timestamped and geo-located for documentation.
