The space solution speeds up construction work

June 29, 2022 ÄRIPÄEV /EHITUSUUDISED

An article about the cooperation between AS Datel and P. P. Projekt was published in the Äripäev construction news portal Ehitusuudised.ee.  Knowledge of big data analysis, on the one hand, and technical know-how on the other. 

According to Aimo Kõva, Business Development Manager at Datel, an engineer can go back in time to 2016 based on the data processing of the images collected by the Sentinel-1.  “Collecting a similar amount of data, for example, geodetically, using drones, LIDAR or other similar applications is not rational from the viewpoints of time or cost efficiency,” Kõva explained. 

According to Richard Viies, Head of the Construction Audit Division of P.P. Projekt, the combining of satellite research enables users to obtain preliminary information at a reasonable cost when planning a project by analyzing the surface geometry, and the effect of seasons, surrounding constructions, and demolitions.  Read more (in Estonian)
