Bulk Material Volume Measurement & Digital Stock Inventory
At Droneview.be, we transform complex stockpiles into exact data. Our drone measurements provide crushing plants, earthmoving companies, and recycling sites with a flawless overview of their inventory, from crushed sand to concrete debris.
Why choose digital stock measurement?
- RTK Precision: Measure volumes of sand, gravel, and debris with centimeter-level accuracy using GPS correction.
- Safety: No more risky climbing on stockpiles; we measure everything safely from a distance.
- Time Saving: Inventory an entire crushing yard or depot in a fraction of the time of traditional methods.
- Compliance: Reliable data for your accounting, insurance, and environmental inspections.
Our Method: Your Inventory in Focus
Droneview.be is your partner for accurate data acquisition in the bulk and recycling sector. We work according to a fixed step-by-step plan to guarantee maximum accuracy and usable reporting.
1. Stock Inventory & Baseline Survey
Whether it is the start of a project or an annual inventory: we map the entire site. This provides you with irrefutable proof of the existing volumes. Essential for a correct balance sheet or when taking over a site.
2. Periodic Volume Measurements (Stock Management)
Thanks to automated flight planning, we fly the exact same path every time. This allows you to seamlessly track and compare the inflow and outflow of materials such as concrete 20/40, crushed sand, and mixed debris.
- Orthophotos: Up-to-date terrain maps for logistical planning and depot layout.
- Volume Reports: Detailed PDF summaries with m³ per stockpile or fraction.
- Elevation Models (DEM): Visualization of the terrain for optimal drainage and storage.
3. Earthworks & Compliance
For large infrastructure projects, we map the moved volume. We provide the data required for earthmoving certificates and invoicing based on actual cubic meters of topsoil or backfill.
4. As-built & Site Management
Document the final state of your site after completion of a project or remediation. The digital data is directly usable for architects, engineering firms, and inspectors to verify the actual situation against the permits.
Driven by 30 years of practical experience
“Information is gold on a crushing yard. I spent 30 years with my feet in the mud and operating cranes myself. I know you don’t need ‘pretty pictures’, but hard numbers: how many tons are left? How much has been produced? We deliver that data faster, safer, and more accurately than ever before.” — Guy Liebert, Manager Droneview.be
Digital Measurement Data: Integration into your Workflow
Our drones deliver more than visual inspection; we deliver measurable results. Our reports are directly usable in your administration or CAD environment. From detailed point clouds to clear tables: we ensure the data fits your business operations.
Are you paying for crushed concrete or expensive water?
The need for independent auditing
Imagine: you had 10,000 tons of concrete crushed into various fractions such as 0/20, 20/40, and crushed sand. You receive an invoice based on the supplier’s weighing systems. But is it accurate?
Anyone purchasing bulk materials receives an invoice in tons based on the supplier’s scale. However, as an industry expert, I know how unreliable those figures can be. A loader operator who “forgets” to weigh a bucket, a double registration, or material saturated with rainwater: the meter keeps running, but you don’t get more material. In reality, you are paying top dollar for water weight.
Droneview.be provides an independent audit. We measure the actual physical stock in m³ with 99.9% accuracy. Compare our objective volume measurements with your invoice and see immediately if the delivery matches reality. Don’t rely blindly on someone else’s scale; let the facts speak for themselves.
