A New England Chapter Connects Series — Presented by the NEAPWA's Education Committee

When: Thursday, October 23, 2025, 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. via Zoom Hosted by T2 Center at UConn

Increasing Project Accuracy Without the Cost of Traditional Land Surveys

Public Works agencies face the challenge of delivering high-quality projects on limited budgets. Traditional land surveys are often expensive and time-consuming, while manual methods lack the accuracy needed for reliable data.

In this session, presenters will demonstrate how drone technology offers a cost-effective, survey-quality alternative. Attendees will see how drones can:

• Provide accurate existing condition data at a lower cost
• Enhance decision-making and minimize construction issues
• Track project progress with visual updates
• Generate marketing materials to showcase achievements

Through real-world case studies, participants will learn how drones streamline workflows, save time and money, and equip municipal engineers, project managers, and decision-makers with the tools to design smarter and build better.
