Case Study: HNTB achieves faster, more accurate designs with Nearmap

HNTB streamlines designs with Nearmap’s 2.2"–3" imagery

HNTB, an infrastructure solutions firm, faced challenges in creating accurate project models due to its reliance on outdated, low-resolution satellite imagery. This led to inefficient workflows and difficulties in winning new business in a competitive landscape. To improve accuracy and efficiency, HNTB implemented high-resolution aerial imagery and geospatial intelligence from Nearmap.

Using Nearmap's high-resolution oblique images, HNTB created an improved workflow to generate detailed 3D point clouds and meshes for realistic project renderings. This solution from Nearmap reduced the need for site visits, provided a consistent source of truth for all teams, and enabled HNTB to deliver more accurate estimates and impress clients with photo-realistic models, ultimately helping them win new business.
