Have you been looking to modernize your construction company and bring it into the future? Here is how you can make your company FLY: Use Drones!
Construction companies are using drones creatively. One apparent use for construction is getting an aerial view of the job site to help surveyors, earthmovers and project managers with a better view of materials, equipment and workers in real time.
By analyzing drone imagery, companies are optimizing grading plans, streamlining operations, and identifying critical differences between as-designed and as-built site plans and construction. Drones can also be outfitted with thermal cameras and used for volumetric calculations of dirt, bio-mass, stone, timber and aggregate material stockpiles on the ground.
So the main reason to have a drone is to get better data by use of a flying robot with built-in sensors that can provide an edge for your business in the field.
Going on autopilot
Still companies are fearful to use manpower to control the drones. Not only operators are squeamish but also the companies are worried that human error could result in liability. This is when autopilot technology comes in. Technology companies are working on new drone technology with single-touch, pre-programmed drones and mobile-app powered auto pilot systems that make take-off and landing much easier. Advances have been made in flight operations and data capture to the extent that you don’t need special skills or expertise to implement the technology.
The drone industry is focused on the three As: “autonomy, artificial intelligence, and applications,”. The aim is to make drone technology for data capture as friction free as possible and still deliver high resolution, highly reliable information. There is plenty of room for the evolution of optical and aerial sensors to provide new levels of field data and intelligence.
Where is drone technology headed in construction? Everywhere: it is moving fast with a lot of advancement and opportunity. It is only getting started and is definitely here to stay!!!

Mahyar was a big part in helping start our company and setting up our corporation. She also went to battle with a Billion dollar Corporation to keep our doors open when they tried everything to shut us down.
In 2008 -2009, our company was involved in a lawsuit with over 1 million dollars claimed against us. Mahyar Ghassemian handled our case expertly and conscientiously. She explained on a regular basis the progress of our case and how each of the actions of our opponent would ultimately affect our case. At no time did we feel alone or compromised as Mahyar boldly stayed her course which eventually provided us with the satisfactory outcome we had hoped to achieve. She will be our first call should the need arise in the future.
Many years ago an insurance carrier hired Mahyar Ghassemian to defend my construction firm in civil litigation. Not only was Ms. Ghassemian very knowledgeable and competent regarding the legal proceedings, but she was also personally vested in our well-being; she cared what happened. She counseled us regarding the various options, listened to our input and proceeded accordingly. In multiple cases with Ms. Ghassemian, we have never experienced a negative outcome. Today my first call when a potential legal issue is on the horizon is to Ms. Ghassemian. She is both extremely effective and cost conscious.
