MATT FITZGERALD

DRONE OPERATOR

HEAD OF OPERATIONS AT RED AIR MEDIA EAST ANGLIA

Hi, I’m Matt, the owner of Red Air Media East Anglia. For me, nothing beats the great outdoors, whether it’s the rolling countryside, the Norfolk Broads, or the rugged coastline. Now, I get to capture these stunning landscapes from above, bringing a fresh perspective to nature, property, and events with high-quality aerial media.

With a background in agriculture and construction, I’ve spent years working with the land. Now, I use innovative drone technology to showcase it in ways that weren’t possible before. Whether you need breathtaking aerial footage or detailed site surveys, I’m here to help.

Let’s bring your vision to life from a whole new angle!

Drones have found numerous applications in the construction industry, revolutionising various aspects of construction projects. Here are some of the ways drones are used in construction:

Site Surveying and Mapping: Drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and LiDAR technology can quickly and accurately survey construction sites. They create detailed 3D maps and models, helping construction professionals better understand the terrain and plan their projects more efficiently.

Inspection and Monitoring: Drones can be used to inspect hard-to-reach or hazardous areas on construction sites, such as rooftops, tall structures, or unstable terrain. This greatly reduces H&S risk to Site Operatives and the General Public and allows for early identification of issues.

Progress Monitoring: Drones can capture aerial aspect images and videos regularly to monitor the progress of construction projects. This provides project managers with up-to-date information, helps with project tracking, and ensures that construction stays on schedule.

Safety: Drones can improve construction site safety by conducting safety inspections, identifying potential hazards, and ensuring that workers are adhering to safety protocols. They can also be used for search and rescue operations in case of emergencies.

Materials and Inventory Management: Drones can be employed to track and manage materials and equipment on construction sites. They can help prevent theft, reduce waste, and improve inventory control.

Marketing and Documentation: Aerial photos and videos captured by drones can be used for marketing purposes, project documentation, and client presentations. They provide a unique perspective and help showcase the progress and quality of construction work.

Environmental Monitoring: Drones can assess the environmental impact of construction projects by monitoring factors such as erosion, vegetation loss, and pollution. This information can be used to minimize ecological damage.

Surveying in Remote Areas: In remote or difficult-to-reach locations, drones can be used for topographic surveys and site assessments, making it easier to plan and execute construction projects in challenging environments.

Cost Savings: Drones can reduce the overall cost of construction projects by improving efficiency, reducing the need for manual labour in certain tasks, and minimizing rework through accurate data collection and analysis.

Quality Control: Drones can help ensure the quality of construction work by capturing high-resolution images and videos for inspection. This allows for early detection of defects or deviations from design specifications.
