More Than an
Aerial Photograph

An updated orthomosaic provides an accurate, scaled and positioned view of the entire project site. It gives project teams a practical tool for planning, coordination, documentation and construction monitoring.

Use current site imagery to:

Monitor

Track construction progress over time.

Review

Clearing, grading, excavation and fill activities.

Identify

Potential construction or design conflicts.

Compare

Current site conditions against project designs.

Overlay

DWG or DXF design information on aerial imagery.

Document

Site conditions at specific stages of construction.

Regular site updates

Keep Your Project View Current

The frequency of aerial mapping can be tailored to the needs and pace of your project.

Monthly

For long-term development and ongoing site documentation.

Quarterly

For projects where periodic progress records are required.

Weekly

For active construction and fast-moving site conditions.

Daily

For projects requiring highly frequent monitoring.

Regular flights create a consistent visual record of how a project develops, allowing current site conditions to be compared
with previous surveys and project design information.

For fast-moving construction projects, this can help project managers, engineers, surveyors and construction personnel
identify potential issues earlier, confirm completed work and make better-informed decisions about upcoming activities.

Volumetric surveys

Measure What’s On the Ground

DroneStripe provides aerial volumetric surveys for stockpiles, gravel pits, quarries, construction sites and other areas where accurate material quantities are required.

Using drone-based photogrammetry, high-resolution aerial imagery is processed into a scaled 3D model. From this model, individual stockpiles or larger areas can be measured to determine material volumes.

Ideal For

Stockpiles

Gravel, sand, soil
and aggregate quantities.

Gravel Pits & Quarries

Measuring material across
large extraction areas.

Excavation & Fill

Understanding quantities
across active construction sites.

Material Inventories

Documenting available construction materials.

Material Movement

Monitoring changes in quantities over time.

Production Reporting

Supporting periodic inventory
and production reporting.

Capture more. Access less.

Efficient Surveys for Large or Difficult Areas

Traditional measurement methods can be challenging when dealing with large or irregular stockpiles, steep slopes or areas containing operating equipment.

Drone-based volumetric surveys can capture an entire area efficiently while reducing the need for personnel to walk over active stockpiles or difficult terrain.

Surveys can also be repeated at regular intervals, creating a consistent record of changing quantities, from annual or monthly inventory measurements to more frequent surveys during active construction or material production.

From aerial imagery to measurable data

One Survey. Two Powerful Outputs.

The resulting 3D model and scaled orthomosaic provide clients with
both measurable data and a clear visual record of site conditions at the time of the survey.

Orthomosaic

A scaled, accurately positioned aerial representation of the project site.

3D Model

A detailed three-dimensional representation that can be used to understand and measure terrain, materials and site conditions.

Survey & engineering integration

Aligned With Your Survey Control and Design Data

Aerial data can be aligned with established survey control and incorporated with engineering and design information to produce accurate, project-ready deliverables.
