Case Study: PCL Construction achieves faster, reliable solar field progress tracking with WingtraOne

PCL Construction captures solar site progress with Wingtra in one hour instead of a full day

PCL Construction, one of the largest construction companies in North America, faced a challenge in keeping up with the demanding pace of its large-scale solar field projects. Their existing quadcopter and multirotor drones were insufficient for the frequent, high-quality data capture required for daily progress tracking over vast areas. They needed a reliable system to provide consistent, timely data for processing and analysis.

The solution was implemented by Wingtra with its WingtraOne drone. This system enabled PCL to efficiently capture a precise "snapshot in time" of their projects daily. The reliable data allowed for accurate progress tracking and analysis, integrating with their partner AI Clearing's dashboards. The WingtraOne was so efficient that what took an hour with it would have taken a full day with their previous equipment. The team has since logged nearly 200 flight hours, relying on the drone in all conditions to keep their solar projects on track.
