Plan
Our iPad app walks you through a simple three-step process:
1. Determine the area to survey or inspect
2. Identify flight heights to capture data
3. Complete preflight checklist to ensure the mission is safe and compliant
KESPRY CONSTRUCTION DRONES
The Kespry Aerial Intelligence solution, provides construction and engineering companies a new way of achieving survey-grade accurate data faster and more frequently. Rather than having to walk the entire site with a base and rover system, or set up multiple stations for scanners and total stations, the Kespry Drone flies autonomously over project sites collecting three dimensional surface data in a single flight.
The Kespry Aerial Intelligence Solution allows you to utilize a Kespry Drone to survey your site, providing you with accurate data faster and more frequently.

Fly
Once the drone is launched by tapping the “take-off” button, the drone flies the mission plan autonomously, then returns to the take-off area for landing.
Once the drone data has been captured, it is uploaded to the Kespry Cloud.
Analyze
Analyze
With the Kespry inspection solution, fast processing and mobile tools enable access to drone data within minutes, providing “in the field” analysis and claims decisions in as little as 1 hour.
For aggregates, mining, and construction, Kespry automatically generates 2D and 3D models of the entire site ready for analysis.
Insight
Aggregates, mining, and construction users can generate stockpile volumes, cut/fill analysis, and detailed topography across an entire site. This analysis can then be outputted to the system or process used to plan and manage that site.

World Class Reporting
The Kespry Cloud automatically calculates the volume and slope of any selected surface. Pitches of roofs, material volumes, cut and fill areas, stripping blocks, or blasting areas can be quickly evaluated within moments. Customized reports show volumes of each material for single or multiple sites are automatically generated for internal business decisions or regulatory audits.
Customers can quickly verify the elevation of any surface in several ways. A simple check box will activate the contour tool allowing the user to pick specific intervals needed to best evaluate large areas for the entire site or detailed areas, such as drainage swales. Changes in elevation can also be shown by viewing a surface model of the site that defines low and high areas with different colors.
High-resolution images are automatically collected from the Kespry Drone and post-processed into sub-centimeter resolution geotagged 3D models.Easy click and zoom functionality within the Kespry Cloud gives users the ability to safely evaluate highwalls, stockpiles, pits, and rooftops with more control and resolution than video or static images.
Applications
Construction
The Construction industry keeps Kespry's survey-grade flight data daily for earthwork quantity calculations and surface data analysis. The Kespry Cloud retains the customer's preference of coordinate systems allowing easy integration into existing takeoff, design, and modeling software for comprehensive RFP's or pre-construction surveys.
Quick earthwork quantity verification checks are available using the surface analysis toolset. Customers simply click around the area for calculation and Kespry automatically calculates volumes, surface area, and tonnage for sub excavations, cuts, fills, stockpiles, and other phases of the project.
The Kespry overlay toolset allows customers to visualize and analyze surface conditions. Users can directly import civil engineering plans or other cadastral data sets to compare recent flight data to actual design. Elevation changes are shown with automatically generated contours and a color map for each flight. At any time, you can create customized reports showing locations of cut and fill areas corresponding to a complete topographic map.
Aggregates
Purpose built algorithms automatically generated volumetric and tonnage information for user defined stockpiles and pit excavations. The Kespry Cloud generates customized inventory reports displaying material type, SKU values, densities, volume, and mass for all materials across multiple sites.
Users have the freedom to stay within their on-site coordinate systems and use Kespry's survey-grade data to update existing mine plans. The overlay toolset allows customer to import mine plans and other cadastral data. The combination of imported mine plans and same day flight data allows customers to identify and calculate blasting patterns, stripping areas, and future operational areas.
Other Kespry Cloud tools allow customers to inspect high walls, measure and evaluate haul road widths, conditions, and profiles from the safety and comfort of the office.
