Can the data integrate with my existing software?

Yes — our deliverables are compatible with most construction and GIS platforms, including AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and ArcGIS, for seamless integration into your workflow.

How quickly will I get my results?

Most progress reports are delivered within 3–5 business days after data capture, depending on project scale and file complexity.

How accurate is the progress data?

Our aerial mapping and alignment workflows achieve centimeter-level accuracy, ensuring consistent and reliable comparisons across all captures.

What deliverables will I receive?

You'll receive geo-referenced imagery, orthomosaics, and visual progress reports. We can also provide 3D site models and time-lapse visuals upon request.

How often should progress flights be scheduled?

We recommend capturing imagery weekly or biweekly for active construction projects. The frequency can be adjusted based on project size, phase, and reporting needs.

How We Monitor Your Project

The progress monitoring workflow that powers your project. See how aerial data turns into measurable progress and actionable insight.

Step_01

Planning & Scheduling

We start by understanding your project goals, timeline, and key milestones. Using Progress Monitoring Pro, we define capture frequency, flight paths, and camera settings to ensure consistent, comparable results throughout the build.

Step_02

Aerial Data Capture

Our drones collect high-resolution imagery and video across your site—covering every structure and surface with precision. Each flight is optimized for alignment, overlap, and lighting to deliver clear, repeatable visual records.

Step_03

Processing & Analysis

Captured data is processed through Databird’s workflow for orthomosaic generation, 3D modeling, and change detection. We align each capture with previous datasets to visualize progress and verify work completed.

Step_04

Reporting & Delivery

We provide processed imagery, side-by-side comparisons, and visual progress reports in easy-to-share formats. Get the clarity you need to make informed decisions, document progress, and keep every stakeholder aligned.
