5 REASONS WHY MASS DATA SERVICES IMPROVES CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

Increasingly gaining popularity in the construction industry from year to year, Mass Data capture has changed the way contractors and developers get the necessary site data for their construction projects before, during, and at project completion. Drones have proven to be an effective tool for collecting the necessary pre-construction data. Despite the obvious upfront cost of purchasing the drone, it is an inexpensive way to collect the data compared to conventional means. The post-flight process expense is relatively low compared to what change orders could cost you later on. Here are the Top 5 reasons why you should leverage Mass Data. 

1.       MORE PRECISE BIDS

Utilizing this technique will give you a competitive advantage in your bidding process. Drones can be flown practically anywhere, at any time, which means you don't have to deal with surveyor scheduling issues. Whether you have the site flown yourself or get us involved, ECI is always available to get you the post-processing flight information on time so you don’t miss your bid deadlines.

2.       SPEED

Drones can survey large sites in a relatively short amount of time compared to other methods. This benefit translates directly into saved dollars in your pocket!

3.       SAFETY

Unlike other methods, drones can fly over areas that are too dangerous for surveyors to access. A drone can fly over it and get the data, whether there are steep elevations, harsh terrains, heavily congested areas, or other hazardous situations.

4.       ACCURACY

Drones take thousands of precise measurements. Once the flight is done and the field data has been collected, it can be processed and used to create a 3D point cloud of the area. This pre-construction 3D model becomes a much more valuable resource than a 2D model because of its accurate and highly detailed visual representation of the site. ECI can take your data files and produce a 3D model within a quick timeframe.

5.       INCREASED PROJECT EFFICIENCY

If there is a lack of information after the initial flight, you can quickly fly the drone over the site as many times as necessary until you get everything you need. It is best to fly the drone at regular intervals throughout the project's life cycle so that adjustments and changes can be captured, and progress can be tracked and communicated back to those in the office or elsewhere.
