MUST-HAVE PLANNING INSIGHTS
24 May 2017
High-resolution aerial imagery has proven invaluable to designers and developers across a range of industries in aiding forward planning for the purposes of superior project outcomes.
Must-Have Insights for Project Designers & Developers
Australia’s population is growing faster than expected, and we are seeing our cities transform in front of our eyes. Urban planners need to plan strategically to ensure suburbs cater to every aspect of life within a community, including housing, access to hospitals, parks, transport, education, shopping, and recreational centres.
Eyes on the Ground - Virtually
Innovative technologies like Nearmap's high-resolution aerial imagery help everyone involved in a project, such as landscapers, civil engineers, architects and the like, to better understand locations, suburbs and cities.
Seeing what’s on the ground in high-resolution, from any desktop or mobile device, helps streamline the process of inspecting a location of interest. Having instant access to cloud-based frequently updated aerial imagery enables businesses to virtually check if a location fits the development criteria, estimate time and costs for execution, and allocate resources. And, the timeline of historical captures provides insights on how a location has changed over time.
The Big Picture Regularly Refreshed
Images are updated every few months empowering all parties involved to keep a close eye on the evolution of a project, making it easy to identify inefficiencies and make appropriate changes to complete construction projects on time. The mix of aerial imagery and inbuilt tools, like volume estimation, measuring tools, solar, flood and shadowing data, can also provide information of how much tar, for example, will be required to complete a project, or how much landfill will need to be removed as part of the construction.
Imagine how much time and money can be saved by eliminating the need to go onsite to get this kind of intel.
Confidence to Get the Job Done
With time a precious commodity in today’s economy, the opportunities disruptive technologies offer are crucial to ensure efficient and successful project delivery.
