Plan and oversee construction projects more efficiently—onsite or away
gNext automatically processes your construction projects and asset data to provide project management, progress documentation, change over time and stockpile analysis, and collaboration with all stakeholders involved in a project. Using the gNext platform can help improve decision-making abilities and save time and money in the long run. More benefits include:
Track projects
Create a master plan
Compare over time
Protect from litigation
One secure place
Collaborate in real time
How It Works
1. Collect data for your construction site to track and manage projects. You can collect it by drone, vehicle, or even in person – video or images.
2. Upload data to our secure cloud-based platform for processing. All you need is a browser connection. No software downloads.
3. Visually review data with a 2D or 3D model, images, video, LIDAR, and more. Collaborate with your team wherever they are.
4. Take action faster with data and reports to track projects as they’re built, review for modifications, and plan projects.
Maximize budgets by managing construction projects digitally
With rising labor and material costs, it’s more important than ever to manage resources efficiently. The gNext platform helps construction companies track projects as they’re being built and maintain project momentum through digital inspections.
- Get automatic processing with pre-selected asset types to get the most accurate model of construction sites, mapping, and more
- Model layers include 3D mesh, point clouds, digital elevation models (DEM), terrain, contour and 2D orthophoto
- No image down sampling for the highest quality model
- Upload, stream, edit and annotate videos and 360 images
- View original images by clicking anywhere in the model
Create a master plan by combining constructionproject plans, BIM models, and drone-captured data
gNext converts your construction asset data into accurate digital models, whether it’s captured via manual methods or with a drone. You can view design plans and the actual built structures, examine utility installations, detect construction mistakes, superimpose defect maps, and more- providing greater inspection precision.
- Overlay visualization support allows you to import geospatially referenced drawings in DXF and KML formats.
- Instantly deliver full reports export in PDF and share with anyone
- Advanced reporting tools include stockpile analysis, annotation, and inspection reports in PDF format
- Export types: LAS/LAZ, OBJ, GeoTIFF, GeoJASON, and DXF
Compare and measure before and after construction inspection data
Easily compare asset data from before, during, and after construction to determine any changes to the condition of the infrastructure. Comparing work completed today with tomorrow’s planned vision ensures projects stay on time and within budget.
- Advanced geometric change detection algorithms to view change over time
- Review projects for modifications
- Keep digital records of change-over-time comparisons of past inspections in one place
- Calculate volumes, measure distances, grades, and more
- Light enhancement tools to brighten dark images and examine change or defect detail
Protect from litigation with a digital trail
With the ability to have the full life cycle of a project captured as digital twins, future disputes or litigation issues can be easily addressed and defended. With proper data capture, you can use gNext to track changes and validate claims
- Store documents securely
Keep one secure place for all your construction asset data
Keep one source of truth for the easiest and most secure data management of your construction assets. Having a virtual repository for your videos, images, and other data makes it easy to track and manage conditions and save resources.
You and your construction team can access this data anytime, anywhere in the world. All your files will remain safe and secure on the platform thanks to end-to-end encryption.
Collaborate in real time with all stakeholders on your project
Share your projects with co-workers or clients to keep the right people involved and projects on track.
- Set project access by on role
- Draw and annotate directly on your model or images to communicate with team members and create reports
- Share the model for stakeholders or clients to review, without an extra login
- Access your projects on any internet-connected device with only a browser
Easy to use and implement
No special training or photogrammetry skills are needed to use the gNext Platform. Our automatic processing and intuitive user interface allow you to simply upload and go.
Not using drones yet? No problem. You can use a combination of images (360 or standard camera) or videos to capture and document current conditions. Need help choosing a drone? We can point you in the right direction through our drone partners.
