About this app

At Zeitview, we specialize in providing comprehensive solar construction monitoring solutions for large-scale solar sites. Leveraging aerial data captured via drones and manned aircraft, we deliver periodic insights (weekly/monthly) into the progress of solar site construction.

The Zeitview Construction Insights mobile app is designed to streamline in-field construction operations, enabling users to access and interact with inspection results directly from their mobile devices. The app presents detailed RGB orthophotos generated from aerial data, showcasing the current state of solar sites.

Field operators can enhance their documentation and communication by collecting on-site data and observations. Photos taken in the field with a phone camera are automatically tagged with the date, time, GPS coordinates, compass direction and site name. The app also features robust navigation tools such as GPS and a compass for precise site orientation.

All these functionalities are available both online and offline, ensuring that field operations can continue uninterrupted, regardless of connectivity.

App features:
1. Login Functionality: Secure login using Email and Password.
2. Site/Inspection Selection: Choose from a list of authorized sites and inspections to view on the mobile app.
3. View RGB Orthos: Access and explore high-resolution RGB orthomosaics of the selected site and inspection on the map page.
4. Offline Downloads: Download maps and observations for offline use, ensuring uninterrupted access to crucial data.
5. Record Observations: Document on-site observations, complete with titles, descriptions, categories, and photos. Camera captured photos are tagged with date, time, GPS coordinates, compass direction and site name. Photos uploaded through the phone storage do not contain this data.
6. View Observations: Access and review all recorded observations, including those made by other users, directly within the app.
7. Navigation: Utilize integrated GPS and compass features for accurate navigation and site orientation.
8. Offline Data Collection and Syncing: Collect data even offline and sync it seamlessly to the server once internet connectivity is restored.
