Here at Measure, our goal is to get the right tools into the hands of our customers. We believe in order for this industry to grow and thrive, automation, good design, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness is crucial. Everyone should have affordable access to tools like flight logging and quality mapmaking. To this end, we’ve made some key changes to our platform that we’re excited to share with you:

Drones for use in the construction industry have boomed since their adoption by civil and commercial groups in 2016. And we expect to see that trend continue in the coming years. According to Goldman Sachs, drones in construction present the largest opportunity for new jobs - nearly doubling the opportunity for the next closest industry -- agriculture.

While drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been around for more than two decades, their commercial use has exploded in the last few years as different industries have come to understand how drone use can benefit their day-to-day operations.

Sometimes creating a high-quality map can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. We will walk through a simple process to plan a mission, capture data, and create quality data products.

Measure’s latest iteration of its drone software platform, Measure Ground Control™, adds data processing and mapping tools, powered by Pix4D, to its existing suite of program management capabilities and user-friendly flight application. The result is a comprehensive, cost-effective solution for managing operations, collecting data, and processing data into high-quality data products.

Through Measure’s custom solutions, including an integration with SAP Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), AES has shortened the turnaround time for wind turbine inspection analysis from 2 to 3 weeks to 2 to 3 days. With automated notifications sent to SAP, AES can address major damage faster, improving overall asset performance.

Starting today, Measure Ground Control users now have integrated access to REIN’s DroneInsurance.com, a digital risk management platform that offers customizable insurance options for your commercial drone operations.

We're excited to share some enhancements to Measure Ground Control's flight app regarding KML import and 360 panorama. 

Mission management is essential to drone operations. In Ground Control, we've updated the mission details screen to put this information all on one page, in an easy-to-navigate overview.
