Case Study: Franz Trippe boosts construction surveying efficiency with Propeller Aero

How drones are revolutionizing construction surveying at Franz Trippe

Franz Trippe GmbH, a German construction company, sought to enhance the efficiency and safety of its construction surveying and data analysis processes, particularly in the challenging topography of the Sauerland region. To address this, they partnered with vendor Propeller Aero and adopted its drone data platform, facilitated through Propeller’s partner SITECH Germany.

The solution involved training employees to fly drones and using Propeller to process aerial imagery into digital terrain models for tracking progress and calculating volumes. This implementation by Propeller yielded significant results: a survey that would have taken multiple days was completed in just one and a half hours. The company has performed over 40 flights, reporting major time savings, increased operational safety, and highly precise data that improves billing accuracy and project planning.
