Implementation of Drone capabilities in Setting Out

This product is an advanced drone-based setting-out system designed to enhance accuracy and efficiency in construction layout. It integrates laser pointers to mark precise locations on the ground, eliminating the need for manual measurements. The system is equipped with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) GPS technology, ensuring centimeter-level accuracy in positioning. This innovation is particularly useful for large-scale and complex sites where traditional marking methods are time-consuming and prone to errors. 
The drone autonomously flies over the designated area, projecting laser points onto the ground as per the digital layout plan. RTK GPS enhances precision by continuously correcting positional data in real time. This reduces human error and accelerates the site preparation process. The system can be controlled remotely, allowing operators to monitor and adjust markings as needed.
This drone-based solution offers a cost-effective and scalable alternative to conventional surveying techniques, improving productivity while minimizing labor requirements. By integrating aerial positioning with high-precision laser marking, the product ensures faster, more accurate, and automated setting out, making it ideal for modern construction projects requiring efficiency and precision.
