On today's construction sites, a lack of accurate project data costs businesses over $177 billion annually. To combat this, Propeller has developed a fully integrated PPK mapping workflow that works across a wide range of commercial drones. Using AeroPoint GPS-enabled smart ground control points and Propeller’s cloud-based platform, surveyors and contractors can visualize geospatial data from one central hub. Propeller’s solutions empower them to capture reliable, verifiable data, enabling data-driven decisions and reducing costly mistakes.

GEODNET’s global network of over 9,000 registered full-constellation GNSS reference stations enhances Propeller’s offering by providing the GNSS corrections data needed to align AeroPoints and drones to thousands of published coordinate systems.

“The Propeller Corrections Network enables high-accuracy map creation in thousands of published coordinate systems and is utilized by customers globally. By incorporating data from GEODNET’s rapidly expanding network of full-constellation GNSS stations, we’re broadening and strengthening the Propeller Corrections Network. This partnership underscores our commitment to delivering centimeter-level accuracy in even more locations across the globe,” said Jack Nachazel, Product Researcher at Propeller.

“On behalf of the GEODNET Foundation and Community, we are honored that the GEODNET Network will be integrated into Propeller’s solution stack,” said Mike Horton, Project Creator of GEODNET.

Propeller has completed the initial integration of GEODNET stations into its network, allowing both existing and new customers to benefit from these enhancements immediately.
