What Is Construction Monitoring?

Construction monitoring tracks ongoing site conditions during active work — capturing changes, movement, or damage in real time. It’s especially useful for documenting adjacent property impacts, supporting claims, and complying with city or owner requirements.

We offer multiple monitoring methods:

• Photo-based crack monitoring with fixed stations and targets

• Settlement tracking using optical leveling and benchmarks

• Periodic condition updates with timestamped visuals

• Exception reporting when movement exceeds thresholds

Featured Progress Monitoring — Market St, Newark, NJ

For this 13-story mixed-use development, Innovize provided drone-based construction monitoring throughout excavation and vertical construction.
Our orthomosaics and visual updates helped the GC and owner track progress, communicate with stakeholders, and maintain documentation for compliance.

• Captured aerial imagery on a monthly interval

• Delivered orthomosaics, photo logs, and before/after overlays

• Geo-referenced outputs were shared as PDFs and GeoTIFFs for project records

• Enabled the team to visually track excavation, foundation, and slab pours over time

Used for internal reporting, contractor coordination, and visual documentation of key milestone
