Surveying - GIS is evolving adjacent to drone technology. Obtaining drone data quickly is now an achievable task and can be
performed in almost moments when compared to traditional techniques. The skilled pilots arrive on-site to collect all aerial data
required for photogrammetry, without hindering any on-going constructions or activities
Progress Reporting - Staying informed with all stakeholders involved in the construction process is vital. Progress reports are a great
way to keep track of activities, keeping investors involved, saving costs through staying on track always. Drones capture accurate
and timely information that can be transformed into reports for future use as well. The data can be represented as 3D models of the
site, orthomosaic maps, and other photogrammetry data to check site progress.
Inventory Management - Keeping track of all the material, equipment, and inventory on-site is a challenging task. Using
photogrammetry, captured drone data can help you keep an eye on the assets at your convenience instead of exhausting hours
operating at the construction site.
Volumetric Estimation - Through specific volumetric measurements, the construction firms can keep an eye on the size of the
material entering and leaving the site. Stockpile measurement results in preserved time and funds for the users.
Structural Integrity Maintenance - Regular quality checks of the site; its elevation is a practice that should be carried out without a
doubt. Identifying and inspecting any structure vulnerability aids eliminate possible future problems regarding safety and save high
costs in the event of any lawsuit.
Construction Site Monitoring
● High-resolution drones are used to
monitor the construction site and
progress.
● Weekly and monthly site visits
produce excellent quality
photography and videography.
● Contractors can monitor their
subcontractors, materials, equipment,
and stockpile volumes.
Surveying with Drones
● GIS is evolving adjacent to drone
technology.
● Skilled pilots arrive on-site to collect
all aerial data required for
photogrammetry.
● Obtaining drone data quickly is now
an achievable task.
Progress Reporting
● Drones capture accurate and timely
information that can be transformed
into progress reports.
● Progress reports keep stakeholders
involved and save costs by staying on
track.
● The data can be represented as 3D
models of the site, orthomosaic maps,
and other photogrammetry data to
check site progress.
Inventory Management and
Volumetric Estimation
● Captured drone data can help keep
track of the material, equipment, and
inventory on-site.
● Volumetric measurements can keep
an eye on the size of material
entering and leaving the site.
● Stockpile measurement results in
preserved time and funds for the
users.
Structural Integrity Maintenance
● Regular quality checks of the site's
elevation aid in identifying and
inspecting any structure vulnerability.
● This helps eliminate possible future
problems regarding safety and save
high costs in the event of any lawsuit.

IMPORTANT APPLICATIONS OF DRONES AND UAVS IN
CONSTRUCTION MONITORING
3D Mapping - Through accurate Aerial monitoring and inspections, Drones provide
data for 3D creations and orthomosaic maps of the construction sites. Topography
enables seizing specific site-maps, including contours and terrain, to be systematically
captured, updated, and collected as online maps for convenient inspection of objects.
3D Mapping gives rise to greater control over projects, updating stakeholders
frequently, and easy detection of illegal constructions by the government, in a fraction
of the time and expense of traditional practices.
Aerial Photography & 3D Modelling - Aerial photography and videography are often
used to provide clients with compelling and essential visuals of the construction and
how it will be in the future. 3D models enable detailed representations of the
constructor's vision and can conveniently be viewed online. Architects and interior
designers rely on these models for future planning and landscaping.

Drones Regulation in Malaysia
Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM)
● In Malaysia, the maximum permitted ascent height is 120 meters (400 feet).
● Flights of drones over designated areas (areas for residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational purposes)
● In Malaysia, drone flights are permitted only within visual range. However, under certain conditions, experienced pilots
can conduct FPV flights.
● Within 150 meters of each designated area, drone flights
● We strongly advise you to obtain aviation liability insurance before conducting drone operations in Malaysia.
● Drone flights over crowds of more than 1,000 people in open spaces
● Drone flights within 150 meters of any outdoor gathering of over 1000 people
● Drone flights within 50 meters of any ship, vehicle, or structure that is not under the pilot’s control
● Drone flights are restricted to a radius of 50 meters around each person.
● During takeoff and landing, drones fly within 30 meters of each person.
● You must maintain 4.5 kilometers (3 miles) from airports and heliports. \
● Flights are permitted only during daylight hours.
Information about Drone permits in Malaysia
Before applying for a CAAM permit, you must first obtain permission from the landowner whose property you intend to fly
over. Additionally, depending on your circumstances, you may need to get the following documents:
● A letter of approval from JUPEM, or Jabatan Ukur dan Pemetaan Malaysia, is required for any drone activity
involving aerial mapping, aerial photography, filming, or videography. The application fee is RM 50.
● A letter from the CGSO, or Chief Government Security Office, authorizing the pilot to fly in no-fly zones such as
Putrajaya.
● A letter of approval from the Sabah or Sarawak Chief Minister, depending on which state you will be flying.
● For foreign drone pilots, an approval letter from the MCMC or Malaysia Communications and Multimedia
Commission.
The permit is valid for a maximum of three months, based on the dates of operation specified in your application.
