SitePlan Onboarding

What is SitePlan

What is SitePlan?

SitePlan is like Google Maps - only for civil engineering.

With the app, site managers, foremen and accountants can carry out their daily documentation and measurement work digitally and GPS-based - directly on the construction site:

• Photo documentation, measurement and stakeout directly via app
• Create evidence-proof reports in just a few clicks
• Easy to use - anyone can do it

This saves you time and stress on the construction site, avoids reworking and documents all steps in a way that provides reliable evidence.

This helps you to achieve a better construction site result.

How evidence-proof photodocumentation works in civil engineering

Photos were taken on your construction site - but nobody knows where they were taken? Then it will be difficult with the evidence...

With SitePlan, your photo documentation in civil engineering becomes simple, structured - and evidence-proof.

For you this means

• GPS-located photos - directly visible on the map, with exact coordinates
• Automatic time stamp including date
• Categorization of the images - e.g. line crossing, asphalt, difficulty
• No more photo chaos - everything stored centrally in the project
• Evidence-proof photo report created with just a few clicks
• Hardly any queries & discussions - clear evidence in the event of a dispute

No more photos without location or context.

No more missing receipts for billing.

With SitePlan, you can document directly where construction is taking place - digitally, comprehensibly and completely.

Turn your PDF plan into a GPS map

Imagine you are a site manager or foreman and are handed a folded paper plan.

Their task: to build roads, canals or routes. But where exactly the way?

That's how I felt a few years ago as a civil engineer.

The reality: Plans are large, difficult to read and you are constantly looking for orientation.

Especially directly outside on the construction site - under time pressure.

That's why we developed SitePlan.

With SitePlan, you can turn any conventional PDF plan into a GPS-based map. You navigate in it like Google Maps - but in the construction plan. Every position is displayed live and all photos are automatically located in the plan.

It's as simple as that:

1. Upload plan: Simply import a conventional PDF plan into SitePlan.
2. Georeferencing:
   • in the office: using 2 known coordinates or reference points
   • or directly on the construction site with GNSS antenna and two known points
3. Get started:
   • See live position in the plan
   • Locate pipes, shafts or components
   • Precise positioning of GPS photos
   • Stake out to the centimeter with GNSS antenna on request

SitePlan also supports DWG and DXF plans: these are automatically georeferenced.

What you get out of it:

• No more tedious searching in the paper plan
• Less cable damage thanks to a better overview
• Immediate orientation & traceability in the project
• Better data, better evidence, better billing

Civil engineering + still using the measuring wheel?

A lot is done in civil engineering every day - but not everything ends up in the accounts.

Why?

Because a dimension is often missing, the sketch is illegible or a section has been forgotten.

The reason is rarely the personnel - but usually the process:

Measuring wheel, tape measure, scribble paper, photos via WhatsApp - it all works somehow. But it's still prone to errors.

With SitePlan it's 5x faster.

Your advantages at a glance:

• No more improvised measurements
• No lost measurements or handwritten notes
• 5x faster than with the measuring wheel - directly via app & GNSS
• Measurement report in 3 clicks - verifiable and traceable
• No discussions during billing - clear data situation

This saves you time on the construction site, secures billing - and avoids rework in the office.

The polisher can now stake out himself

"The construction site is at a standstill because nothing staked out or individual pegs are missing. Where is the surveyor?"

Do you know that?

With SitePlan you can do everything independently unplug in no time at all. Without waiting times. Without surveyors. Without stress.

your advantages:

• No more manual measuring on site
• Eliminate coordination and waiting times for survey crews
• Save up to 80% on surveying costs

And the best part:
SitePlan is so intuitive that even less tech-savvy colleagues can get started within minutes.

The civil engineering vicious circle: there's a fire on the construction site

What we hear every day in our conversations with site managers, foremen and accountants, often sounds the same:

1. Stress on the construction site
2. Improvised photos and measurements
3. Post-processing & guesswork in the office
4. Missing billing statements
5. No money for construction work performed

That is The vicious circle in civil engineering.

Next partial invoice?

The client says "proof missing". The consequence: invoice reduction.

...and then all over again:

Money pressure leads to even more stress.

The more often we see the vicious circle, the clearer it becomes:

It doesn't stop by itself. You have to actively break through it.

With SitePlan you can break this vicious circle:

• Measurement, stakeout & GPS photo documentation via app
• Accurate to the centimeter with smartphone + GNSS antenna
• Evidence-proof reports created with 3 clicks

Like Google Maps - only for civil engineering.

Construction site in view - live, from the office

Do you know what's out there right now happens on your construction site?

SitePlan allows you to maintain an overview from the office - live, digitally and as part of a team.

• Photos, measurements, tasks
• Location and timestamp included
• Synchronized in real time - directly into the project

Save demo & experience SitePlan in your own project - click here.

Everyone is working on the same project - at the same time:

You can add foremen, site managers or accountants to the project with just a few clicks.

Everyone immediately sees the data of the others - directly in the app or in the web view.

You can assign tasks to your team and upload plans directly from the office.

These appear immediately in the app and are visible to all team members.

This turns the construction site and office into a shared digital workspace.

This means for you:

• No waiting for pictures via WhatsApp
• No queries about who did what
• No guesswork about the project status

Instead: Clarity, availability and the ability to act directly - without detours.

How others work with SitePlan

How do others work with SitePlan? In short: faster, easier and more cost-efficient.

Documenting the construction site - without any chaos:

"In the past, photos and important data often got lost - now everything can be accessed centrally. I can see all the information in the office without having to be on site all the time."
- Dominik Schmidtzkonz, Site Manager - Pfaffinger Bau

"Even my tech-skeptical foreman can work with SitePlan after 10 minutes of training."
- Reinhold Schnelzer, Foreman - PORR

Measurement & setting out - faster and more precise:

"In the past, two or three people were often needed for measuring work. With SitePlan, I now do it alone - faster and more accurately."
- Markus Aigner, Site Manager - Hitthaller

"My foreman is happy that he can mark out everything immediately - without waiting times."
- Maximilian Rutar, Site Manager - STRABAG

"An entire working day per week for measuring work? With SitePlan, I can do it in a quarter of the time."
- Fabian Frauenberger, Site Manager - Held & Francke

Office & construction site - everything in view, everything networked:

"With SitePlan, everyone involved is working on the same level - this avoids misunderstandings and saves time."
- Christoph Schwarz, Site Manager - Bernard Group

"Photos, plans and GPS measurement data - everything at my fingertips on my tablet."
- Andreas Saft, DB Bahnbau Group

Conclusion: SitePlan saves time, costs and nerves - and is so simple that it really works.
