Case Study: Borbas Surveying and Mapping reduces digitizing efforts by 50% with Pix4Dsurvey from Pix4D

Drone survey for solar panel installation on rooftops

Borbas Surveying and Mapping, LLC, a New Jersey-based surveying company, needed a faster and safer way to survey school rooftops for solar panel installations. Working with Pix4D, the team used drone mapping and photogrammetry tools, including Pix4Dmapper and Pix4Dsurvey, to capture roof data and prepare it for CAD workflows.

Pix4D helped Borbas streamline the process by generating accurate point clouds and enabling faster vectorization of roof features in 3D. The result was a 50% reduction in digitizing efforts, with jobs that previously took two and a half to eight-hour days now taking less than a day or only a few hours, depending on project size.
