Create Dynamic Timelapses to Capture Change Over Time

Timelapse captures long-term project developments through sequential aerial imagery, transforming months of progress into a few powerful moments. Timelapse videos showcase project evolution, highlight milestones, and provide a compelling overview that is invaluable for stakeholder presentations, marketing, and project documentation.

Automated Image Capture Over Time

Automated timelapse technology captures images at set intervals, allowing consistent documentation of site changes across extended periods. By using pre-programmed flight paths, this feature ensures that images are taken from identical angles and positions, providing a clear, chronological visual record. This consistency is valuable for tracking changes and understanding the evolution of projects, particularly in construction and environmental monitoring.
