Trimble Stratus
Civil contractors and surveyors need land surveying technology that provides fast data processing to prevent rework and support quick turnaround times. Trimble Stratus is a drone data processing software platform for mapping and surveying the worksite and assets. Get a clear view of the area, so you can map, measure and manage the site yourself and connect key people to critical information.
Features and Benefits of the Aerial Survey Drone Software
Get a realistic, geographically accurate visualization of your site with this software for drone surveying data. With Trimble Stratus at your worksite, you can:
- Plan and estimate with confidence: Conduct site surveys before the job begins to collect frequent, detailed images of the site. Know where the site boundaries and protected areas are to plan work and tighten your budget.
- Survey land faster: Drone land surveying software acquires accurate topographic surveys as needed and allows you to view inaccessible or hazardous areas safely.
- Calculate site volumes: Measure and calculate material volumes from stockpiles, drainage channels, cells and pits to improve management.
- Share information with stakeholders: The centralized cloud-based workspace enables sharing progress updates with your team and customers.
- Check designs: Upload your design file to Trimble Stratus to track progress by contrasting the actual surface versus the design surface.
- Use mobile mapping: Trimble Stratus is available as a mobile app, which contractors can use to generate and share interactive maps, see 2D and 3D site models, and capture photos.
Industries That Benefit From Drone Land Surveying Software
Trimble Stratus has applications in many industries.
Civil Construction
Civil construction engineers and contractors use drones to capture survey-grade topographic maps and understand how much material they need to create cut-and-fill maps. Frequent, accurate data capture allows project managers to monitor site activity and track progress against the design.
Aggregates
In the aggregate industry, Trimble Stratus can monitor and manage inventory and blasting operations. Compare the volumes before versus after blasting and measure the angle of the blasting surface to control potential slipping and track compliance. The drone surveying data helps ensure road cross-slopes, widths and grades meet design specifications to optimize traffic management.
Mining
Track the status of mining operations with aerial survey drone software. Mining engineers can upload planning areas to track progress based on the 3D location survey and compare measurements over time. Measure the volume of the stockpile for accurate inventory estimates.
Waste
Trimble Stratus for waste management monitors landfill progress and productivity. Calculate cover material for operational efficiency and check cell volume to maximize compaction. The surveying data also aids in calculating current, changed and remaining airspace for Environmental Protection Agency reporting.
How to Use Trimble Stratus
Trimble Stratus is easy to use, requiring only a few steps to get consistent, reliable land surveying data in challenging terrain:
- Place ground control.
- Fly the drone over the site.
- Upload ground control.
- Upload the drone images.
- The dataset is generally processed within 24 hours.
- Analyze and share the site maps and models.
