What is DroneDeploy?

DroneDeploy is a reality capture platform that utilizes robotic capture (drones, ground robots) and 360 cameras, combined with real AI, to provide a complete understanding of quality, safety, and progress across various job sites. It helps companies in industries like construction, energy, agriculture, and property management automate reality capture and analyze data to create digital twins, track progress, and improve operational efficiency.

How to use

Users capture site data using supported hardware like drones, ground robots, or 360 cameras. This data is then uploaded to the DroneDeploy platform, where AI-powered analysis generates 2D maps, 3D models, meshes, and pointclouds. Users can view, compare, and track their sites and assets over time, leveraging features like progress tracking, safety risk detection, and automated reporting. The platform also integrates with other software for a unified workflow.

Core Features

  • Robotic and manual reality capture (drones, 360 cameras, ground robots)
  • AI-powered analysis for quality, safety, and progress tracking
  • 2D mapping, 3D modeling, and digital twin creation
  • Data integration with industry-specific software (e.g., Procore, Autodesk, Esri)
  • Automated reporting and inspection workflows
  • Safety AI for real-time risk detection and incident prevention
  • Team and user management capabilities

Use Cases

  • Automating site inspections, tracking progress, and reducing rework in construction.
  • Managing sites and assets remotely and improving worker safety in oil & gas.
  • Automating stand counts, identifying variability, and monitoring crop health in agriculture.
  • Assessing property conditions and creating digitized records for property management.
  • Automating stockpile analysis and improving safety in mining & quarries.
