Crane-Camera – image-based BIM-as-build solution

Let us take you into the exciting world of construction site documentation.

With the help of system cameras mounted at the boom of the construction site crane, Crane-Camera takes high quality photos of your construction site every day. 

Combined with that, discover the outstanding advantages of photogrammetry. A method of creating 3D models from photos. During the extraction process, 2D and 3D data is going to be gathered from photos with the help of appropriate software and stitched together in order to create a 3D model accurate to the centimeter level.

The innovative Crane-Camera is used as follows:

• as-built documentation checks of ongoing construction projects, structural requirements or flatness checks.

• exact determination of core drillings in order to avoid additional expenses.
• logistics planning 

• interactive measurements of height, inclination, area and length 

The most important advantages of the Crane-Camera at a glance:

• Detection of errors at an early stage of the construction process. Position errors can be detected quickly by overlaying planning data.
• Valuable time savings through clear and precise documentation
• Costs under control: Wrong decisions and expensive additional work to correct errors are reduced.
• Careful planning and execution to reduce human errors.
• Contractors, engineers and clients are always informed about the current construction status via the web platform. This significantly reduces the coordination effort.
• The georeferenced 3D models and orthophotos can be transferred to third-party providers such as construction management systems for further use.
• The orthophotos and elevation models can be used for later references and analysis.
• Highest quality is guaranteed for the cameras in use.
