What Is Construction Progress Monitoring
Construction progress monitoring is the continuous collection of information throughout the lifecycle of a project to ensure that construction is proceeding as planned. Progress monitoring not only detects when a project has fallen behind schedule, but it also prevents delays from occurring. Project managers who consistently collect progress reports are alerted to issues as they arise and can implement solutions before the issue slows construction.
Some Construction progress monitoring may include:
- Observation of the construction work and its progress
- Observation of any potential work stumbling blocks or stoppages
- Evaluation of construction schedule adherence
- Evaluation of workmanship quality
- Assessment of stored material supply for adequate quantities
- Identifying construction changes as well as potential or pending changes
Construction Progress Monitoring Methods
Traditional construction progress monitoring is an attempt to get boots on the ground to see firsthand how a project’s progress compares to the schedule. An inspection typically entails dispatching an inspector to walk the site on foot and record their observations. These on-the-ground inspections present some difficulties.
Traditional on-the-ground assessments for progress monitoring are as follows:
- Time-consuming –Large sites can take hours or multiple workdays to thoroughly assess.
- Incomplete – Some construction site areas may be inaccessible from the ground and thus excluded from the assessment. This could be due to them being physically out of reach or being too dangerous to access. The remaining visuals only communicate a portion of the overall picture. Aerial footage and access to those difficult-to-reach areas would be required to view a site in its entirety.

While South Florida Drone Guys LLC excels in aerial data collection, it’s important to note that we do not provide survey-grade interpretations. When it comes to projects that require precise measurements, it is essential to rely on the expertise of a licensed land surveyor or survey engineer. While we can collaborate with your surveyor to gather data, our data collection services cannot replace the role of a licensed land surveyor in any state. This holds true not just for our business but for all drone data collection services. It’s worth mentioning that we also do not overlay property boundaries on home lots, whether developed or undeveloped, for sale. This is due to the same reasons mentioned earlier – the need for surveyor expertise and the limitations of drone data interpretation. Rest assured, we are committed to working in conjunction with licensed land surveyors to provide accurate and reliable data for your projects.

Drone progress reports can be very important in construction sites for a variety of reasons:
Project Management: Drone progress reports can help project managers to monitor the progress of the construction project and make sure it’s on schedule.
Safety: Drones can be used to inspect hard-to-reach areas, such as roofs and tall structures, without putting workers at risk. This can help to ensure that construction sites are safe and in compliance with safety regulations.
Quality Control: Drone progress reports can provide detailed images of the construction site, which can be used to identify any potential quality control issues. This can help to ensure that the final product meets the required specifications.
Cost Control: Drones can be used to measure quantities of materials, such as the amount of soil that has been excavated, which can help to control costs and avoid overages.
Communication: Drone progress reports can be shared with stakeholders, such as investors and clients, to keep them informed of the progress of the construction project.
Overall, drone progress reports can be an efficient and effective way to manage construction projects and ensure they are completed safely, on time, and within budget.

3D maps can be very important for construction site progression for a number of reasons:
Planning: 3D maps can help to visualize the site before construction begins, enabling engineers and architects to plan and design more accurately.
Site Analysis: 3D maps can provide a comprehensive and detailed view of the construction site, including contours and features of the land, existing structures, and utilities. This can help to identify potential challenges and design solutions in advance.
Progress Monitoring: 3D maps can be used to monitor construction progress over time, providing an accurate and up-to-date view of the site. This can help to identify any deviations from the plan and adjust schedules and resources accordingly.
Communication: 3D maps can be shared with stakeholders, such as investors, clients, and regulatory authorities, to keep them informed of the progress and development of the project.
Safety: 3D maps can help to identify potential safety hazards, such as steep slopes, and enable proactive safety measures to be implemented.
Overall, 3D maps can provide a valuable tool for construction site progression, enabling effective planning, monitoring, and communication, and helping to ensure safety and quality.
