    Propeller had the chance to exhibit at ConExpo, North America’s largest construction conference. It was a great opportunity to connect with customers, meet new faces, and share ideas with others pushing the boundaries of construction tech.

    Among those new faces was James Benham, the brainchild behind ConTechCrew, a construction technology podcast, and CEO at JBKnowledge, an IT services company that specializes in application design and development, electronic data interchange, strategy consulting, mobile solutions, and web development. In one of his recent podcast episodes, “210: The Choir Boy from 7734!” Benham discusses his experience at the Propeller booth, his thoughts on our new product DirtMate, and why he thinks the 3D mapping and drone analytics workflow we’ve built is, “next-level.” 

    There are three things Benham calls out specifically:

    1. The novelty of AeroPoints, our “smart” ground control points.

    Here’s an explainer video on AeroPoints.

    2. How DJI’s Phantom 4 RTK is so much more than a consumer-level drone.

    3. DirtMate’s ability to collect real-time progress data on earthwork projects.
