Drones in Construction
Advances in technology have made drones an affordable tool in the construction industry. In fact, construction is the fastest growing industry using drones. Drones can save thousands of euros over the lifecycle of a project by quickly, safely and accurately collecting valuable data that benefits many areas of the construction project.
Construction projects require a wide-range of expertise and techniques in order to be completed successfully. Drones can be used in many of the workflow components of a construction projects, namely surveying and documentation. It is understandable that many in the industry are hesitant to jump aboard the drone-ship as high accuracy and reliability of results is critical. At Epotronic, we regularly test new products and measure their accuracy (relative accuracy, absolute accuracy and precision) so that we can correctly inform our customers on whether drones will meet their project requirements.

Solutions
The ideal solution will depend on many factors, such as accuracy, time limitations, and regulation considerations. At the following link we highlight some of our key recommendations.

From drone to CAD in a few clicks
Using drones represents a big difference in the type of data used traditionally by surveyors. Virtual Surveyor incorporates traditional methods and deliverables to provide an intuitive experience for surveyors with little or no drone expereince.
