Representative deliverable

In short

Drone progress documentation is a repeatable aerial capture of a construction site flown on a fixed cadence, producing date-to-date comparable maps and imagery for owner reporting and schedule verification. Agriflyte flies progress missions bi-weekly or monthly for contractors and developers in Norman, Oklahoma City, Moore and Edmond.

Who it’s for

Built for the people who have to make the call.

01

Project managers

See the whole site without driving to it.

02

Owners & investors

Progress you can verify, not just a percentage on a report.

03

Superintendents

Spot laydown, access and sequencing conflicts early.

04

Out-of-state stakeholders

One link instead of a plane ticket.

The problem

Progress reporting is a percentage in a spreadsheet that nobody can check.

Stakeholders get a number and a few photos aimed at the good side of the job. Remote owners fly in to see for themselves. Issues that were visible from 300 feet — a laydown yard blocking the next pour, stormwater controls failing, a subcontractor working out of sequence — surface weeks later as schedule impact.

  • Spot photos that document a corner, not the project
  • Remote stakeholders traveling to answer simple questions
  • Sequencing and access conflicts caught after they cost time
  • No consistent visual record when a delay claim shows up
How Agriflyte solves it

The same flight, the same angles, on a schedule — so change is obvious.

We fly a repeatable mission on a cadence you set. Each capture produces a current orthomosaic plus a fixed set of oblique angles, aligned to the previous ones so you can slide between dates and watch the job move. Milestones get flagged, and everything lives in one link you can forward to anyone.

  • Repeatable automated mission — identical altitude, path and angles each visit
  • Bi-weekly or monthly cadence, or tied to your milestone schedule
  • Date-to-date comparison of orthomosaics and oblique sets
  • Milestone-annotated summary suitable for owner reporting

How it works

Four steps from your call to usable data.

  1. 1

    Set the mission

    We build the repeatable flight once, matched to your site and reporting needs.

  2. 2

    Lock the cadence

    Recurring visits scheduled around your pour and milestone calendar.

  3. 3

    Fly and compare

    Each capture is processed and aligned to the previous, so change reads instantly.

  4. 4

    Report out

    Annotated summary and a link your owner, lender and team can all open.

Construction Progress — questions

What people ask before they book this.

Something not covered here? Email deyan@agriflyte.com and you’ll get a real answer, not a brochure.

How often should a construction site be flown for progress documentation?
Most Oklahoma City metro projects are flown bi-weekly or monthly, which is 12–26 captures over a project year. Fast-moving earthwork phases justify weekly flights; long finish phases can drop to monthly. Agriflyte also flies to milestone triggers, such as before a major pour or at substantial completion.
Does drone documentation disrupt work on an active site?
No. Agriflyte is on site for 15–25 minutes per capture, coordinates with your superintendent before arriving, and flies clear of active crews and equipment. Work continues throughout — the aircraft never needs the site shut down or cleared.
Can remote owners and lenders see the progress data?
Yes. Every capture is delivered as a shareable link that opens in a browser with nothing to install, including side-by-side and slider comparisons against any prior flight. Out-of-state owners, lenders and investors review the same data your on-site team does.
