Give Construction Teams a Clear View of Site Progress
Fly a site on a regular schedule and deliver every visit in one client-facing portal. DataDelivery by National Drone Services organizes recurring drone captures by date, so owners, contractors, and project managers can review maps, photos, and reports — and compare progress between any two dates.
Free plan — no credit card required. Stakeholders only need the link.
What is a construction progress portal?
A construction progress portal is a single client-facing page that organizes recurring drone captures of a site by date, so stakeholders can review and compare progress over time. Instead of emailing a separate folder after every flight, you add each visit to one ongoing project. Owners, contractors, developers, and project managers open the portal in a browser and follow the site as it changes — capture by capture.
In DataDelivery, the portal is generated from the job you already organized. Each flight becomes a date-stamped capture, and the orthomosaics, photos, 360° aerial panoramas, measurements, annotations, and reports for every visit live together in one place. Because the portal runs under your branding and (on higher plans) your own domain, the delivery looks like a finished product from your business.
Organize repeat flights by date
Every visit to a construction site belongs to the same project — not a new folder you have to track down later.
Captures organized by flight date
Each flight becomes a date-stamped capture inside the job, organized chronologically so the timeline reads clearly from first visit to most recent.
Add a capture each visit
When you re-fly the site, add a new capture to the existing job. No need to start over — the project simply gains another dated visit.
History accumulates in one place
The full project history builds up under one portal, so stakeholders always have the complete record of the site without hunting across separate deliveries.
Compare progress over time
The whole point of recurring captures is seeing what changed. In the portal, stakeholders can put any two capture dates side by side with synchronized views and watch the site evolve between visits.
- Choose any two capture dates and view them together.
- Synchronized panning and zoom keep both dates aligned.
- Annotations mark site conditions and notes in context.
- Measurements on the imagery give area and distance reference.
Everything stakeholders need, in one portal
A DataDelivery job collects every deliverable type a construction client expects — all organized by capture date.
Orthomosaics
Georeferenced orthomosaics on an interactive map with zoom, pan, and measurement tools for every capture date.
Progress photos
Standard images and MP4 video from each visit, viewable in the browser so the client can browse the site visually.
360° aerial panoramas
Immersive aerial panoramas that let stakeholders look around the site from above for each capture.
Reports
Client-ready reports built from the job's data, with multiple portal views per job for different stakeholders.
Measurements
Area and distance measurements — area, perimeter, and coordinates — with multiple layers and CSV export.
Annotations
Mark issues and add notes directly on the imagery so site conditions are documented in context.
Built for site stakeholders, on or off site
Anyone who needs to follow the project can review it from anywhere — and you stay in control of who sees what.
No-login link
Send one URL. Stakeholders open the portal in a browser — no account, no install.
Control access
Share a job through a link you control, and revoke access at any time.
Views per stakeholder
Create more than one portal view from the same job — one for the owner, another for the contractor.
Remote site review
Stakeholders review the site from the office or the field, without a trip to the project.
Note: DataDelivery outputs are intended for visualization, documentation, and progress monitoring. They are not survey-grade and are not intended for engineering, legal, or ground-control use.
The recurring monitoring workflow
A repeatable cycle that keeps the construction portal current visit after visit.
-
1
Capture the site on a regular schedule
Fly the project on a recurring cadence so each visit documents another point in the build.
-
2
Process or organize the deliverables
Process orthomosaics and point clouds and organize the photos, panoramas, and files for the visit.
-
3
Add each capture to the project timeline
Add the new visit as a dated capture inside the existing job so the timeline stays in order.
-
4
Publish maps, imagery, reports, and files
Make the orthomosaics, imagery, reports, and project files available in the portal.
-
5
Share access with project stakeholders
Send the no-login link to owners, contractors, developers, and project managers.
-
6
Compare progress over time
Put two capture dates side by side so stakeholders can see exactly what changed.
-
7
Maintain a documented project history
Every capture stays in the portal, building a documented record of the project over its life.
Who follows a site through the portal
Construction stakeholders who need to understand site progress — not just store files.
Owners
Watch the build advance between visits without needing to be on site.
General contractors
Document conditions, track progress, and keep one shared record of the site.
Developers
Follow project milestones with a clear visual timeline they can share.
Project managers
Compare dates and review annotated imagery to stay on top of the schedule.

Frequently asked questions
How do recurring captures work?
Each job is organized into captures by flight date. When you fly the site again, you add a new capture to the existing job, and it is date-stamped and organized chronologically. The whole project history accumulates in one place instead of being split across separate folders or jobs.
Can stakeholders compare two capture dates?
Yes. The portal can show two capture dates side by side with synchronized views, so an owner, contractor, or project manager can see how the site changed between visits. This is the core of progress monitoring in DataDelivery.
Do stakeholders need a login?
No. Stakeholders open the portal through a shareable link with no login required. Only you, the drone service provider, need a DataDelivery account. You control access and can revoke a link at any time.
What can I include for a construction client?
Orthomosaics on a map, progress photos and video, 360° aerial panoramas, point clouds, measurements, annotations, and client-ready reports. Each of these can be organized by capture date so the client follows the project over time.
Can different stakeholders get different views?
Yes. You can create more than one portal view from the same job, so an owner and a general contractor can each get a view tailored to what they need to see. You control access to each, and links can be revoked anytime.
