Tips and Tricks for Leveraging Drone Tech for Optimal Earthworks Project Management
 
Date: Thursday, November 11, 2021
Time: 1 p.m. EST / 10 a.m. PT
Duration: 60 minutes
Sponsored Content by: Propeller Aero
 
Summary: Mitigating risk on an earthworks project requires enhanced visibility and fast data intelligence. The problem is, that is difficult to achieve without technology. Consider this: opportunities for variances between expectation and reality extend across the entire project and with each variance comes increased costs, extended timelines, unnecessary frustration, and more. With the help of technology that supports comprehensive analytics and comparison tools, teams can gain greater project oversight and reduced risk that better aligns expectations with reality. During this session, we will discuss essential tips and tricks for leveraging technology to manage your projects and align stakeholders.
