Challenges

Processing large data volumes, including high-resolution product images and signature images from uploaded deficiency reviews. Work offline and sync with the client-server when an Internet connection is available.

Integrating the device camera and gallery to allow users to attach photos and videos. Creating a precise Geo boundary to pin the assets was also a task as construction sites cover a large geographic area.

Adding images and editing them further was also a task, and to the solution of this problem, our team integrated Annotation, a customized editor within the app.

Our Solutions

Created an environment where the focus was on performing the work safely rather than burdening the worker with enormous amounts of time managing the paper documents and procedures. We also defined the geofencing boundary to the project with precise measurements to improve user accessibility.

The best part is the admin can see all the activities of all the projects in live view. Given the administrators, one place to organize users, projects, and various assets. This innovative approach for tracking site progress which removes the need for daily inspections and allows the team to generate accurate and georeferenced data easily.

This application aims to change the way projects are managed, and this platform is designed to simplify the project data sharing between all the users. Keeping all the project team informed about the site progress enables better collaboration and coordination.
