Structures and Construction Monitoring

Structures and Construction Monitoring (Structures Monitoring & Construction Monitoring)  is a system for observing the process of building construction using aerospace imaging technologies, such as aerial imagery, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and laser scanning, at defined intervals.

Structures and Construction Monitoring (Structures Monitoring & Construction Monitoring) with remote sensing data is a system for collecting up-to-date and reliable information on the construction progress, allowing for analysis and assessment of the overall situation on the construction site.

Aerospace construction monitoring is carried out for:

• Making timely and informed engineering and managerial decisions;
• Obtaining information on the site's condition as close to real-time as possible, enabling analysis of the construction progress without physically being on-site;
• Creating an archive of imagery captured during the construction process, which can be used to resolve disputes;
• Verifying databases generated from documents (e.g., actual volumes of earthworks, actual dates of work completion, adherence to construction specifications, etc.);

During aerospace construction monitoring, the following tasks are addressed:

During the design phase:

• Qualitative and quantitative assessment of the initial state and dynamics of objects and territories for potential construction;
• Functional zoning of the potential construction site and adjacent areas;
• Preparation of topographic plans and specialized maps;
• Creation of 3D terrain models;
• Generation of reference plans based on up-to-date orthophoto maps;

During the construction phase:

• Monitoring the implementation of the project throughout the entire life cycle of the construction site, following the construction schedule specified in the project documentation;
• Identifying deviations of the actual state from the project documentation;
• Monitoring the legitimate use of subsoil during construction;
• Assessing the impact of construction on the adjacent areas and compliance with environmental regulations;
• Monitoring compliance with construction deadlines.

During the operation phase:

• Environmental monitoring and monitoring of compliance with land legislation;
• Qualitative and quantitative assessment of ongoing negative processes and phenomena, as well as identifying trends in their development;
• Using radar interferometry data to identify areas with geodynamic changes.
