Stop managing jobsite updates through screenshots, phone calls, and outdated files. Propeller connects crews in the field with teams in the office through a shared 3D view of the site, so everyone can see what’s changed, flag what needs attention, and work from the same picture of the site.
Most site communication still relies on fragmented updates: a photo texted from the field, a plan revision buried in an email, a foreman calling the office for clarification, or a project manager making decisions from yesterday’s information.
That gap creates delays, rework, missed context, and expensive misunderstandings.
Propeller connects field and office around shared site information. Crews, surveyors, engineers, project managers, and stakeholders can review the latest available surveys alongside designs, measurements, media, markups, and progress comparisons.
Field teams stop chasing files. Office teams stop guessing what’s happening on site.
Propeller gives every team one shared view of site conditions, design updates, progress, and next steps—without piecing context together across separate files.
Give field teams the map in their pocket. Crews can access the latest site data, designs, and measurements from a phone or tablet while they’re on site.
Pin photos, videos, and notes directly to locations on the map, so the office can see exactly what happened and where.
Replace vague directions with location-based communication. Teams can mark up the map, flag issues, clarify work areas, and share visual instructions tied to the actual site.
Bring the approved design revision together with your latest survey. Give field and office teams a shared reference for reviewing planned work and discussing differences.
Turn a site question into a preliminary earthworks concept. Create a road, ramp, or pad on your survey terrain, then use it to explain the idea and coordinate qualified review.
Share maps, measurement reports, PDFs, and links with the people who need site context, even if they aren’t working in Propeller every day.
From checking designs in the cab to reviewing site progress from the office, see how Propeller customers keep work moving with shared site data.
“Every week at the site manager’s meeting, we briefly check the status of things on our construction sites on our mobile phones. We don’t even have to be there and still have everything in view.”
– Frank Pohl, Team Leader Surveying & Accounting, Matthäi Group
“The mobile app, measurement, designs, and outputs are all used on a regular basis and are crucial for day-to-day operations. Prior to Trimble Stratus, this would have been an additional workload for the onsite surveyor.”
– Daniel Wood, QBirt
“If something’s going wrong, you don’t want to know a month later. You want to know the next day, if possible. It allows red flags to go up earlier and you can make changes earlier. So, with respect to that, it’s saving money.”
– Matt Eklund, GPS Program Manager, Sukut Construction LLC
“Without the platform, we would need to at least double the size of the team to achieve the same level of accuracy and speed.”
– Paulo Eduardo Palma Baptista, Construction Coordinator, Nova Rota do Oeste
Field-to-office communication looks different depending on the role. Propeller gives each team the context they need without forcing everyone into the same workflow.
Stop being the go-between for every question about the site. Give the office, field crews, subcontractors, and clients access to accurate site data without becoming the bottleneck for every measurement, screenshot, or clarification.
Document work without the clipboard. Capture site conditions, issues, and progress from the field, then share it tied to the map so the office has the full picture.
Cut down on site visits and reactive decision-making. See what’s happening across the jobsite from the office and make faster decisions with visual proof.
Communicate design intent back to the field. Help crews understand changes, verify conformance, and catch potential issues before they turn into rework.
Stay informed without chasing files. Review survey-based progress, field observations, and measurement reports through shared outputs and links.
Propeller brings together field capture, mobile access, machine data, and office analysis in one connected platform.
Your shared command center for site communication. Teams can view the latest surveys, designs, surfaces, measurements, markups, reports, and media in one browser-based workspace.
The field-ready view of your site map. Crews can access site data, capture media, and communicate updates directly from the jobsite.
Give planning conversations a visual starting point. Describe a preliminary road, ramp, or pad, refine it on real survey terrain, and share the concept for qualified review before field use.
Capture the full site picture with drones, AeroPoints, GNSS rovers, handheld scanning, and other supported hardware. Give teams the accurate visual context they need to communicate and decide.
Keep the office and field aligned from preconstruction through closeout.
Reduce the surveyor’s role as the go-between for every site question.
Improve situational awareness across large, active sites.
Keep teams aligned on inventory, production areas, and changing site conditions.
Give remote oversight teams visibility without constant site travel.
Coordinate long, distributed projects from one shared map.
Give project managers direct access to the calculations they need, so questions get answered without another handoff.
– Patrick Schultz, Assistant PM Grade & Quality Control, R&K Excavation
Your field and office teams shouldn’t have to piece together a picture of the site from phone calls, screenshots, and stale files. Propeller gives everyone a shared 3D view of the jobsite, so teams can see what changed, understand what matters, and make decisions faster.
Field teams can use Propeller Mobile to view site maps, designs, measurements, and updates directly from a phone or tablet. They can also capture photos, add notes, and share updates without returning to the office.
Propeller CAD helps teams turn an earthworks idea into a preliminary concept on real survey terrain. Use it to explain an option, refine requirements, and coordinate engineering review. Concepts require qualified review before field use and should remain clearly distinguished from approved construction designs.
Field-to-office communication is the process of sharing site updates, design information, progress data, issues, and decisions between crews in the field and teams in the office. With Propeller, that communication happens through a shared 3D map of the jobsite, so everyone can work from the same visual source of truth.
Propeller centralizes site data, designs, measurements, media, and markups in one platform. Instead of relying on screenshots, emails, or verbal descriptions, teams can point to the exact location on the map, share what they’re seeing, and respond with the same information in front of them.
General collaboration tools share messages and files. Propeller ties conversations to mapped locations, survey surfaces, designs, measurements, and field media, so teams can discuss an issue in its site context.
Yes. Teams can share site information through PDFs, measurement reports, and shared links, helping clients, subcontractors, executives, and owners review relevant updates.
