Why clients pay for this

Defensible records for payment decisions and dispute protection.

A contractor who moved 18,000 m³ of soil but can only prove 15,200 m³ loses $50,000–$200,000 on a single claim. A developer who cannot document construction progress delays the next loan draw by 30 days. A municipality facing a contractor dispute with no independent site records has no position to defend. SITE INTEL solves all three.

Progress documentation

Independent visual records for owner reporting, lender draws, internal reviews, and monthly project tracking. Orthomosaics, comparison visuals, and structured reports your team can review and keep on file.

Quantity verification

Structured volume reporting for stockpiles, cut/fill, excavation, and grading decisions. RTK-accurate measurements with a stated methodology — acceptable for payment certification in Ontario and Quebec.

Inspection support

Close-range imagery, annotated defect logs, and organized condition records for bridges, facades, utilities, and civil assets. Documentation that gives your engineering team something to act on.

Core services

Three focused services built around common project needs.

Each service is tied to a clear use case and a deliverable your team can understand, review, and act on.
