About this book

A start-to-finish roadmap on incorporating drone technology into your AEC firm workflow

Drone Technology in Architecture, Engineering and Construction: A Strategic Guide to Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Operation and Implementation is the only process-driven, step-by-stephandbookto implement drone technology in AEC workflows.It provides a comprehensive and practical roadmapfor architecture, engineering, and construction firmsto incorporate drones into theirdesign and construction processes.

The book offersextensive information on drone data processing, andincludesguidance onhow to acquire, manipulate and use the various data types produced from drone flights.Thecreationofthree-dimensionaldataand visualizationsarecovered in-depth. Drone Technology reviewshow to select and fly dronesbased on data needs and initial costs, and how to collect and maintain required flight logs, licenses, and permits.

Drone Technology uses severalreal-worldprojectexamplesthat demonstrate and explain how drones can be used to collect:

· Full-colororthorectifiedimagery

· Accurate3Dpoint cloud and mesh models

· Topographic contours

· Digital Elevation Models (DEMs)

The project examples also describe how these datasets can be integrated with 3D models of proposed conditions, photos, and other project datasets.

Drone Technology in Architecture, Engineering and Construction isan essential guidefor a wide variety of professionals, fromcivil engineers tolandscape architects.It provides informationon professional use of drones for thosejust considering the technology, to those already flying drones professionally.It is an invaluable guide for anyone workingin the designor construction of buildings and landscapes.
