Drone Pilot: Edward Ryder
FAA Part 107: Current
Drone: DJI Mavic 2 Zoom
Capture Date: February 16, 2025
Location: Fort Morgan, CO
Area Covered:0.020723 km²
Capture Start: 11:38:35 AM
Capture End: 12:13:55PM
Flight Time: 35 minutes and 20 seconds
Images Captured: 284
Maximum Altitude: 180 ft
Average Altitude: 180 ft
Total Distance Flown: 1,378 ft
Foundation Progress: The high-resolution orthophoto clearly shows well-defined foundation layouts for all residential units, confirming a robust base for further construction.
Framing Initiation: Structural framing is visible on approximately 85% of the buildings, indicating a significant progression toward vertical construction.
Material Staging: Construction materials (e.g., lumber, rebar) are systematically staged in designated zones, ensuring efficient workflow and easy access for on-site crews.
Elevation Data:
Highest Elevation: Approximately 1,340.00 meters (≈4,397 ft)
Lowest Elevation: Approximately 1,318.00 meters (≈4,322 ft)
Elevation Variation: Approximately 22.00 meters (≈72 ft) across the site
GSD: 1.9 cm/pixel, ensuring exceptional precision for all measurements, which is crucial for accurate grading and drainage planning.
Implications: The detailed DSM data enables the project team to make informed decisions regarding site grading and to ensure proper water drainage, directly addressing stakeholder concerns.
Horizontal Accuracy (CE90): 0.0.550 meters
Vertical Accuracy (LE90): 2.020 meters
Average Ground Sampling Distance (GSD): 1.9 cm
GPS Errors: 1.22 meters
All residential unit foundations are fully complete, forming a solid base for the project.
Framing is now visible on about 85% of the structures, with initial roofing installations beginning on select units. This marks a significant milestone in the transition to vertical construction.
The site exhibits a highly organized layout with clearly defined material staging areas and established access routes.
These improvements ensure efficient movement of equipment and supplies, reducing potential delays and enhancing overall workflow.
Ground Sampling Distance (GSD): 1.9 cm/pixel
Horizontal Accuracy (CE90): 0.990 meters
Vertical Accuracy (LE90): 5.936 meters
GPS Errors: 1.25 meters
Processing Time: 1 hour, 18 minutes, 5 seconds
These metrics confirm the high precision and reliability of our drone data, which is essential for effective construction monitoring and decision-making.
Images Captured: 284 high-resolution images available in both JPG and DNG formats, including 8 cardinal-direction views for complete site coverage.
Orthophoto & DSM: High-resolution outputs that support marketing, project management, and site planning. These deliverables are accessible via our dedicated client portal at www.303-drones.net.
Videos: Includes both 400’ Orbit and Hyperlapse footage capturing dynamic progress at the Riverside Homes site.
Framing & Roofing: Complete remaining framing and initiate roofing installations across all units.
Utility Installations: Begin essential utility installations (plumbing, electrical, sewage) as the project transitions to interior work.
Grading Adjustments: Implement final grading adjustments based on DSM insights to optimize drainage and ensure structural stability.
Continuous Improvement: Consistent advancements in structural framing and organized material staging underscore the project’s strong management.
Data-Driven Decisions: Detailed elevation data addresses stakeholder concerns regarding drainage and grading, facilitating informed decision-making for contractors, developers, real estate agents, and investors.
Riverside Homes is developed to provide quality housing for Cargill employees, contributing to local workforce stability and community growth.
