Progress Monitoring

Monthly drone progress monitoring for construction sites across the UAE

Aerial survey of a Dubai construction site with cranes and earthworks

The Same Site, Every Month, on One Record

Progress monitoring is a monthly drone visit to your site, flown the same way every time so each month lines up exactly with the last. Developers see what has been built, contractors have dated evidence for valuations and claims, and consultants check progress against the programme without a site walk.

Every visit

  • A drone survey with ground control: orthomosaic, surface model and point cloud of the whole site
  • Repeat photos and video from fixed viewpoints, so the same view can be compared month to month
  • Checked by our survey team before it is published to the AirTech Portal

We fly across all seven emirates and handle the flight permits. Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks once the necessary NOCs are received from the client.

AirTech Portal swipe comparison between two co-registered survey orthomosaics

Compared against last month

Each survey is co-registered to the one before it. Swipe between any two dates on an identical view, measure cut and fill, and check stockpile volumes against a boundary base. The repeat viewpoints build into a dronelapse film of the whole project, ready for the board pack.

What you receive each month

  • Orthomosaic map of the whole site, as a GeoTIFF
  • Surface model and point cloud
  • Repeat photos and video from the same viewpoints, as 4K MP4 and 24MP stills
  • Comparison with last month, measuring where earth was removed or added
  • Stockpile and pit volumes, measured against a fixed boundary
  • A dronelapse film of the project to date, ready for the board pack
  • Everything on the AirTech Portal, with individual logins and shareable links. The footage stays yours.

Alongside the time-lapse cameras

Where a site also has time-lapse cameras, the monthly flights sit on the same record: the daily view from the ground and the monthly view from the air, in one place for the life of the contract.
