Iowa Construction Best Practices Include Drones

Construction growth is gearing up in Iowa from Des Moines, Sioux City, Cedar Rapids and more across the Hawkeye state. What does this mean for the construction industry and how will it affect project site management?

When you need a firm grasp on the bottom line and an accurate understanding of your site situation, construction drone technology is a great asset. Modern construction sites come with an onslaught of information and require constant interaction between engineers, project managers, and workers on-site.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs, or drones) are real-time eyes and ears on the job site -- yours and your clients. Equipment World reports:

Many in the construction industry are finding drones and UAVs can play a vital role in their work. Whether they’re used for surveying, to show clients and potential clients an aerial overview of completed projects, to monitor jobsites to ensure safe practices or to inspect bridges and other structures.


With construction drone technology, project managers stay on top of progress and make sure work stays on track. Iowa construction drones let you keep tabs on multiple projects and job sites while minimizing travel time and expenses. Drone construction monitoring is more nimble and useful than CCTV to keep an eye on job progress and safety procedures and allow you to view a construction site as though first-hand.

When you hire a construction drone pilot, make sure they are legal, licensed, and have a FAA 333 exemption. Droners.io can provide you with drone pilots who are FAA 333 exempt and licensed professionals.
