Frequently asked questions

Can I use my own drone?

Yes. Any drone that can take overlapping photos of the site works — from a DJI Mini to enterprise drones. You fly, we build the model.

Do I need survey or CAD experience?

No. The viewer runs in your browser: you click points on a 3D model of your site and get distances, areas and angles. If you can use a map, you can use this.

How accurate are the measurements?

Accuracy depends on photo quality and flight altitude — typically within a few centimeters for a well-flown building survey. Calibrating with a known dimension improves it further.

What does the workflow look like?

Fly your drone and photograph the site → upload the photos → we build a 3D model → measure and organize quantities → export a BoQ for your quotation → track progress and export a statement each month.

My measurements don't match reality — what do I do?

Calibrate the model with a known dimension: measure something you know the true size of (a door, a window, a wall) and enter the real value. The whole model rescales to match.

What can I measure?

Distances, areas, angles and inclines. Measurements can be named, colored, grouped, and organized into sheets — so a full takeoff stays readable.

What is a BoQ export?

A bill of quantities built from your measurement groups — the quantities your quotation needs, exported instead of re-typed.

What are statements?

The Statement panel tracks which work was completed in each period. At the end of the month you export a statement — proof of progress behind every invoice.

Can I see which photos a measurement is based on?

Yes — the Inspect tool. Place a pin anywhere on the model and it shows you the source photos that built that exact spot.

Does it run in the browser? What do I need?

Yes, nothing to install. A desktop browser is recommended for measuring work.

My model has holes or looks melted in places. Why?

Usually not enough photo overlap, or reflective/moving surfaces (glass, water, vegetation in wind). Re-fly the area with more overlap and the model improves.

How do I share a project with my team or client?

Team sharing is on the roadmap — for now, exports (BoQ, statements) are the way to hand results to others.
