DroneDeploy has entered into an agreement to acquire StructionSite.
The acquisition will unify the two solutions for aerial and ground capture into one complete platform, enabling customers to seamlessly deploy aerial drones, ground robots, and handheld 360-degree cameras to document their sites, according to the company.
“Companies across industries have been asking for a unified view of their sites: a single platform to document, inspect and measure the exterior and interior of their assets and infrastructure,” said Mike Winn, CEO and co-founder of DroneDeploy, in a prepared statement. “We're excited to deliver on this, combining DroneDeploy’s leadership in aerial reality capture with StructionSite's leadership in ground reality capture to enable full reality capture for 40 percent of the top 400 general contractors.”
Said Matt Daly, CEO and co-founder of StructionSite, in a statement:
“I am thrilled that with the DroneDeploy and StructionSite teams joining forces, our combined technology, resources and expertise will deliver the unified experience our construction customers and the wider industry have been asking for. Together, we can accelerate StructionSite’s product roadmap through an integrated platform that will enable some of the world’s largest construction companies to deploy autonomous aerial and ground robots to deliver efficiency and cost savings at scale.”
