What Propeller Platform is

Propeller Platform brings plans, field data, machines, and teams together on a map for worksite management. It uses survey data from machines, drones, GPS rovers, laser scanners, and total stations to measure volumes, elevations, distances, surface areas, and stockpiles, and to compare site conditions with designs or past surveys. Teams can view sites in 2D or 3D, combine survey captures, follow changes over time, inspect map layers and cross sections, and track progress and productivity. DirtMate adds machine location, utilization, speed, and cycle data. Teams can share maps by unique URL, collaborate on markups in real time, and create reports and progress videos. The platform supports Android, iOS, web, and API access, and is cloud deployed. Listed integrations and workflows include Trimble, Procore, Autodesk, OneDrive, HCSS, ArcGIS, and QGIS. It is paid, with pricing on request, and has a 14-day trial rather than a free plan. Trial access to a user's own data lasts 14 days, and the trial does not include processing.
