Abstract
Applications of UAV technology within the construction industry
Highlights
The construction industry is one of the most extensive socio-economic activities globally
We describe the planning and implementation of an inspection system for a building structure by working with a mobile robot, an unmanned aerial vehicle operated by a pilot from the ground station, and the design of an inspection plan based on algorithms for localizing objects of interest
Rapid advances in unmanned aerial vehicles informatics and perceptions, such as low-cost, lightweight sensors and image processing, simplify implementing inspection tasks traditionally performed on construction sites by complex and expensive devices, such as laser scanners human-crewed helicopters
Summary
The construction industry is one of the most extensive socio-economic activities globally. Engineers use drones for 3D modeling, site mapping, and analyzing project progress. Drones provide an aerial view of a site; this allows builders to measure distances and dimensions, track progress on a project, locate missing personnel and equipment, and monitor traffic patterns on-site.
