Construction Project Monitoring With Building Information Modeling

• Daily, weekly and monthly visual and near real-time progress reporting
  
• Quality and design control - BIM construction services measuring as planned against as built
  
• Plan egress and on-site logistics for vehicles and earth moving equipment
  
• See materials, equipment, temporary roads and structures
  
• Geo-referenced cut and fill and earthwork measurements, and stockpile volumes for labor and time estimates to move and remove
  
• Regulatory compliance
  

By incorporating Sunshine Drones' UAV near real-time BIM data and images into your construction progress reporting workflow, you will save your project managers time and significantly improve your understanding of a project's status.

Sunshine Drones delivers construction site tracking throughout multiple phases of your project – ground breaking, earth moving, foundation pours, utility installations, wall erections, framing and topping off – until the project is completed.

Sunshine Drones' UAVs fly lower, closer and more safely over construction sites than traditional aircraft and give you highly detailed and accurate information for daily, weekly and monthly progress meetings:

• 2D orthomosaics
  
• 3D point clouds
  
• Digital surface models
  

Engineering and architecture firms, and contractors have found that they can have more productive and fewer meetings by using near real-time images and data that correlates what is happening on the ground with their plans. When projected onto a job site trailer or office wall, the UAV-delivered high-quality BIM images and precision CAD-integrated data overlaid with civil engineering and architectural plans add an entirely new dimension to your discussion. Jobsite managers can quickly resolve problems, such as improper construction phase sequencing or laydown yard disorganization, which can cause performance delays that impact your bottom line. Decisions are made. People are more engaged. Projects move forward faster.

Another benefit that Sunshine Drones brings to construction is our ability to repeat the exact same mission. Once the initial flight plan is developed, we load a mission and replicate the original flight, providing you with non-deviated information. 

Using historical data provided by Sunshine Drones, you can more accurately predict construction workflows, schedule deliveries and manage subcontractor efficiency to help you fine-tune bids. When bidding on projects for new clients you can also showcase your technological efficiencies and the imaging solutions, providing your clients with images and data to also track the progress of their project.

Real-time Project Tracking
Perform daily, weekly or monthly aerial surveys to have up-to-date 2D and 3D orthomosaics of your construction site.

Cash Flow Optimization
Real-time progress tracking helps you invoice for the work that you have completed.

Highly Detailed and Accurate Data
Gather accurate and periodic topographical records to measure construction site changes, and to compare as-planned against as-builts.

Subcontractor Tracking
Ensure that your project workflow is steady as subcontractors complete construction phases. Avoid bottlenecks and costly delays.

Competitive Differentiation

Clients will appreciate that you offer images and data to help them track the progress of their projects.

​IMPROVE ACCURACY WITH BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING

Sunshine Drones delivers construction site images and data that integrates with CAD software to facilitate building information modeling. Architects, engineers and contractors save time monitoring their projects. Decisions are made faster. Projects move forward more quickly.
