Own the days between surveys

Grading machines hit grade and the weekly drone survey signs it off. Machine telematics own the days in between, mapping the ground under the tracks and tires of every active machine. Verify production daily and adjust your field operations by the minute.

See what’s happening

Know where every machine is and what it’s doing, without leaving your desk.

Live machine map: Every active machine on the same map as your latest survey.
Idle and run time: Catch idle machines before they cost you the shift.
Machine trails: Color-coded trails show slow or stalled cycles at a glance.

Dirks streamlined bidding and production with DirtMate

Jonathan Ensz, CEO of Dirks Enterprises, first adopted Propeller’s drone survey workflows to capture weekly progress data. That success raised a new question: could daily production insights and material volumes give his team an even bigger competitive edge?

What is machine mapping and how does it work UI platform

“We can see the yardage moved on a daily basis, allowing us to adjust equipment per site to keep each job efficient. DirtMate helps our crews in the field stay on track and see where they’re at.”

DirtMate RTK

Grade check without leaving the cab

Add centimeter-level grade checking with DirtMate RTK. Operators get a machine operator view with real-time grade and location in the cab, so they can cut, fill, and stay on spec without stepping out. Supervisors and engineers get the same precision on their phone, checking grade from anywhere on site. Two access points, the same data.
