The Core Problem: Time, Cost, and Errors
Manual surveying is a time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone process that creates bottlenecks and financial risk for your projects.
Key Pain Points
- Time-ConsumingProjects are delayed by weeks due to slow, manual surveying and drafting.
- Labor-Intensive & CostlyHigh labor costs and the potential for expensive rework due to human error.
- Error-ProneManual measurements can have a 2-5% error rate, risking significant budget overruns.
Visualizing the Financial Risk
This chart illustrates the potential rework costs from survey inaccuracies on a typical ₹10 Crore project.
Key Takeaway: Manual surveys introduce a significant financial liability. Our technology nearly eliminates this risk, protecting client budgets and your firm's reputation.
How It Works: From Site to Digital Twin
A streamlined, three-step technical process to replace weeks of manual work.
Data Capture (Photogrammetry)
A pilot uses the drone to capture overlapping images of the site.
3D Model Reconstruction
Software processes the images to create a dense 3D point cloud of the space.
AI Floor Plan Generation (CNN)
Our AI model analyzes the 3D data to automatically generate an accurate floor plan.
The Technology Breakdown
Our solution combines modern hardware with smart software to create a complete system.
