Since 2000, B+T Group has been providing expert engineering services, and in 2014, we expanded into site scanning. Our engineering experience set us up for success as technology evolved, allowing us to know exactly what data needs to be captured. Whether scanning monopole cell towers, guyed or self-support towers, water towers, billboards, rooftops, utility pole runs, or oil and gas receiver stations, our site-agnostic approach ensures that all necessary information is collected on the first visit.
We use a variety of advanced equipment, including drones, standard DSLR cameras, and 360-degree cameras, to capture site data in the most efficient and accurate way possible. This data directly feeds into 3D models, our patented 2D virtual tours SiteView or our own 360-degree tour, along with other critical details like meter readings, gate signs, and any other site-specific information defined by our clients ahead of time.
Our national COA from the FAA enables us to mobilize quickly, and our proprietary heat map process guarantees that all data is verified on-site before we leave.
Key Features of Our Site Scanning Process
- Decades of Engineering Expertise: Our engineering background, established in 2000, informs every step of our data collection process. We know what data matters most and ensure that it’s captured with precision, setting your project up for success.
- Advanced Data Collection Tools: Using drones, DSLR cameras, and 360-degree cameras, we gather comprehensive, site-agnostic data. These tools allow us to capture high-resolution imagery and precise measurements from a wide variety of site types.
- Custom Deliverables: In collaboration with our clients, we tailor deliverables based on the collected data. Whether you need engineering reports, due diligence documentation, site verification (e.g., lease compliance), or inspections, we customize our output to match your specific project goals. Our aim is to put the data to work for you as seamlessly as possible.
- Customer-Driven Software and API Integrations: We work closely with customers to develop software and API integrations based on their feedback. Whether you need data fed directly into your existing systems or automated deliverables uploaded, we’ll collaborate with you to create a workflow that works best for your operations.
- Automated Data Upload & QC: Once data is collected, it is uploaded via Field Collector, our proprietary data collection software, automatically categorized, and processed by our team. Our QC process ensures that all deliverables meet the highest standards of accuracy and quality.
Since 2014, we’ve scanned a wide range of sites, leveraging both internal and external pilots. From rooftops to monopoles, our process ensures you receive the precise data you need, accurately and efficiently.
