View company profile

Propeller Aero is dedicated to revolutionizing how worksites in heavy civil construction, mining, aggregates, and waste management industries measure and manage their operations. Many of our customers in these sectors traditionally faced challenges with slow, expensive, and often hazardous manual surveying methods. These outdated processes could lead to project delays, budget overruns, and safety risks. Understanding these pain points, Propeller Aero provides a comprehensive solution that empowers worksites to capture, process, and visualize survey data with unprecedented speed, accuracy, and ease. Our platform transforms drone-captured imagery into precise 3D site models, offering actionable insights that improve efficiency, enhance collaboration, and reduce operational costs.

Our customers need reliable and up-to-date information to make critical decisions about earthwork progress, stockpile volumes, and overall site productivity. Propeller Aero addresses this by offering an end-to-end workflow, from our smart ground control points (AeroPoints) and drone photogrammetry/lidar processing to our intuitive cloud-based platform. This allows teams, both in the office and in the field, to access a single source of truth. By providing tools for easy data sharing, progress tracking against design, and subcontractor management, we help our customers streamline their workflows, minimize disputes, and ensure projects stay on track. Ultimately, Propeller Aero enables businesses to harness the power of drone data to make their worksites safer, more efficient, and more profitable, fostering a new era of data-driven project management.
