Aerial imagery helps commercial construction sector

Nearmap improves construction companies’ efficiency by giving them a view from above, allowing them to be more efficient, and able to plan resources without doing expensive site visits.

Nearmap helps:
1. Find locations of interest
2. Identify details around the property
3. Accurately measure details at the property
4. Export images and create proposals—and integrate with GIS tools

Lindy Paving is using Nearmap to improve operations. The company has created an app, using Nearmap imagery, that allows field planners to view sites without having to visit them. The app provides
• Better planning and estimates – Nearmap aerial imagery allows Lindy to view new projects and better plan without onsite visits, resulting in cost savings and faster estimates.
• More efficient crew management – The Nearmap imagery allows crews to see the project site before they physically go there. It does not require a lot of clicks and steps to get to the information they need.
• Pre- and post-construction information – Nearmap provides all the key data points and a whole view of the project lifecycle. Visibility and access to all key data points allows Lindy to better plan and prioritize projects, which leads to increased projects and revenue.
• Reduced staffing – The increased effectiveness of all parties involved has eliminated the need to add additional staff to manage the more than 400 projects completed in a single paving season.

Lindy built the storage and retrieval system using SQL, ArcSDE, ArcGIS Server, Amazon S3 media storage, and aerial map services provided by Nearmap.
