Top Ways Customers Used JobSight in 2018

1. Progress Monitoring and Updates

From subcontractors to owners, teams require up-to-date progress updates to ensure a project is consistent with plans and on schedule. JobSight enables regularly scheduled autonomous drone missions, and provides reality-based visibility of an entire site in near real-time, from thousands of angles and perspectives.

2. Improved Collaboration & Reporting

Communication is one of the biggest challenges shared across the construction industry. JobSight provides a single source of visual truth that illustrates what occurred in the past, as well as the current state of a project, giving teams a visual medium to easily communicate with and refer to throughout the lifecycle of a rapidly evolving project.

3. Rework Minimization

Rework is an inevitable part of construction, but its frequency and scope are preventable. JobSight gives teams the opportunity to jump back-and-forth on a project’s timeline to forecast challenges, streamline checklists, hold teams accountable, and identify small mistakes before they escalate into bigger and more costly problems.

4. Safety Observations

Safety is a top priority for many construction firms, and innovations in technology offer compelling new opportunities to prevent injuries and deaths on site. Routine drone insights within JobSight enable teams to conduct site inductions, facade analysis and safety inspection checklists — providing a simple and cost-effective means to perform high-risk activities and make new and immediate observations.

5. Site Documentation & Risk Mitigation

Throughout the life cycle of a project, and well into its completion, teams are liable for mistakes and resulting rework, budget overages, missed deadlines and more — frequently resulting in litigation. JobSight proactively collects and intuitively stores a repository of visual project data that immediately resolves disputes, streamlines litigation and provides documentation and evidence that significantly increases a team’s defensibility.

6. Material and Asset Intelligence

Having accurate visibility into material and asset inventories has always been a problem on construction sites. JobSight gives managers a simple and up-to-date method of locating assets, verifying inventories and intelligently placing materials before they arrive on site.

7. Rapid Vertical Inspections

Structures and assets on construction sites are three-dimensional, and can’t be digitized from the ground or space. JobSight provides industry-leading insights across nearly every angle of a site, including 360 panoramas, image series and facade scans, enabling observations from multiple perspectives to validate assumptions and eliminate guesswork.

8. Enhanced Marketing & Sales

Beyond the utility drones bring to onsite logistics, the perspective and awareness drones provide is also value to teams showcasing work and competing for future projects. JobSight imagery and data provides office teams with impressive and immersive perspectives to update stakeholders, distribute on social channels and win future bids.
