more widely adopted in the construction industry , it is becoming more accessible to small and mid-sized companies looking to integrate advanced tools into their workflows . We already work with many small , familyrun construction firms , and are speaking with more people every day who are looking to use technology to advance their capabilities . While a drone surveying solution is still an investment , the amount of time and money it saves means it quickly pays for itself , and solutions like Propeller are making highly accurate drone surveys affordable . Demand for civil engineering and construction projects will only increase , and as those projects become even more complex , construction companies will embrace technology like Propeller to continue to meet high standards of quality and efficiency . Because of its versatility and ease of integration , I believe drone surveying technology will become quite commonplace over the next few years .
Q . WHAT DO YOU THINK THE FUTURE OF DRONE SURVEYING WILL LOOK LIKE , AND HOW IS PROPELLER MAKING IT A REALITY ?
ยป Not only will the turnaround time and accuracy of drone surveys continue to improve , but the insights they are able to provide will also expand to help operators make better predictions and more informed decisions about their projects . Right now , Propeller can turn aerial images of a worksite into a 3D model with actionable insights through photogrammetry . This process gives operators the ability to pinpoint safety hazards , compare completed work against design documents , and measure stockpile quantities . Going forward , Propeller will be able to provide even more in-depth insights , and help operators more seamlessly communicate this information across their teams . constructionglobal . com 21
