Mapping Construction
Drone 3D Photogrammetry, Inspections
Aerial Drones using specialized software and licensed pilots are increasingly being used in the construction industry for a variety of purposes. 2D and 3D Drone mapping and Photogrammetry are important tools for a variety of applications and offer a range of benefits and capabilities for mapping objects and surfaces. Here are a few examples:
Accurate and Detailed Mapping: Drones can capture high-resolution, aerial images and videos, which can be used to create accurate and detailed maps of an area. This can be useful for a variety of applications, such as surveying, planning, and monitoring the progress of construction projects.
By using DJI's proprietary mapping software called Terra, you can map many acres at a time and transfer the data straight into Drone Deploy software for annotations and deep layers of data.
Time and Cost Savings: Drones are faster and more cost-effective than some other methods of mapping, such as using planes or helicopters. This can save time and money for businesses and organizations that need to map large areas or perform frequent updates to their maps.
Safety: Drones can provide a safer alternative to traditional mapping methods, such as climbing or using scaffolding. This can reduce the risk of accidents or injuries for workers.
Very important -- don't forget to invest in a couple external power banks for charging up your drone, controller and batteries. There's nothing worse than to be out in the field and run out of juice. A small hand-sized charger with usb-c cable that connects from your pocket is always handy when your controller is running low.
I have personally been using chargers and power stations from Anker because of their quality and reliability.

3D Photogrammetry
Mavic Enterprise Drones with RTK can be used for surveying and mapping construction sites, which can be useful for planning, monitor progress, and creating detailed maps. Our pilot can use Drone Deploy or Terra software to map the layout of a site, or to measure the volume of materials on the site.
Progress Reports
Drones are faster and more cost-effective than some other methods of mapping, such as using planes or helicopters. Weekly or monthly flights can save time and money for businesses that need to map large areas or perform frequent updates to their maps.

Inspections
Our drones inspect the ongoing progress of construction sites and detect potential hazards. And a drone equipped with a thermal camera can detect areas of a building that are not properly insulated, and drones with a high-resolution camera are used to identify cracks and other issues on a building's exterior, thus saving costs.
