Carroll Engineering’s departments have been utilizing the drone’sability to capture aerial views of clients’ projects from start to finish,pre-planning initiatives, site mapping, and offer real-time videocaptures for hard-to-see areas using accuracy and speed. Our licenseddrone pilots use their experience to remotely navigate the unmannedaerial vehicle (UAV), as it collects aerial data through its pivotal imagerysensors. For instance, when used in a drone survey, a client can requestmeasurements at certain distances and in other specified volumetricdistances. Project managers can inherently benefit from utilizing thedrone information for day-to-day project updates and staying informedto make quicker reaction times to any project delays that can arise.

Bridge/Culvert Bridge Inspection North Whitehall TownshipLehigh County, PABuilding Exterior Survey Scan Carroll Engineering, being the surveyor ofrecord, was tasked to provide base mappingand design for proposed building additions,underground detention basins, storm structures,curb, walls, sidewalk, amongst other items. Thedesign was based upon the existing buildingfaçade, foundation, and finished floor. To ensureour client received the most accurateand timely product possible, CEC also performed laser scanning duties along theface of each building.As part of CEC performing engineeringservices for the Covered Bridge PreservationProject, CEC used the Drone/UAV to obtainvideo and photographs of the inside of thestructure, beneath the bridge, and inspect theslate roof. By using the drone, CEC was able toobtain valuable information concerning theexisting condition of the bridge members andobserve the existing roof in a safe and efficientmanner.Municipality of PrincetonMercer County, NJ
