„How much excavation was that really?“
In civil engineering, excavation volumes are usually determined using standard cross-sections or empirical values.
Once construction pits, slopes, or stockpiles deviate from the standard, calculated volumes no longer match reality.
The sequel?
- Uncertainty regarding billing and supplementary charges
Discussions about actual quantities
Incorrect material and disposal costs
Extensive post-calculations at the office
Weeks later, there is usually a lack of reliable data.
Volume? Rough estimate or just with a surveyor
➔ Quantities are based on estimates rather than actual m³ data
➔ Difficult to precisely capture stockpiles, embankments, or special areas
External surveying is complex and delays billing
Small accumulations or intermediate results are often not recorded at all.
➔ Current quantity values are missing for quick decisions

Testimonials
Previously, field measurements required several people – today, the foreman handles them alone, and with greater precision.
Digital surveying saves time, reduces errors, and simplifies billing. Ideal for landscaping and civil construction – from photo documentation to staking.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Markus Aigner – Site Manager, Hitthaller
The surveying works flawlessly, and the tilt sensor saves a lot of time during measurement and staking.
Very easy to use, with multiple people able to work on the same project simultaneously. With the integration of utility plans, external lines are always available on site.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Simon Kling – Site Manager, Pfaffinger Bau
Surveying and staking used to be time-consuming and error-prone,
we used string lines and measured everything manually. Now it's faster and more accurate – everything is digital. Workflows from site to office are smooth. SitePlan saves us real time and has become indispensable.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
David Mayer – Foreman, Felbermayr Bau
With SitePlan, our site documentation and tracking run like clockwork.
Our foremen can independently document utilities and handle simple staking – no extensive training needed. All photos and data are digitally secured and centrally accessible. As a site manager, I have everything at my fingertips – without being on site.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Dominik Schmidtzkonz – Site Manager, Pfaffinger Bau
We already had a GPS system, but it was complicated and not user-friendly.
SitePlan, on the other hand, is easy to use and ideal for our team. The app saves us a lot of time with documentation and is accurate and uncomplicated. I am particularly impressed by the fast and reliable cooperation with the SitePlan team. For construction companies of all sizes, SitePlan is a strong partner that speeds up processes and simplifies documentation.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Christian Penker – Managing Director, Infra-Connect
My foreman is thrilled he can stake out everything right away – no waiting!
On one job we had to lay 1,100 m of drainage. SitePlan was essential. The foreman handled all staking and documentation himself. I stay up to date from the office and have a clear billing record.

Frequently Asked Questions about Volume Calculation
The construction site team records measurement points using a smartphone and GNSS antenna. A 3D surface is generated from this in the web app, and the volume is calculated.
For stockpiles, excavation pits, slopes, excavation areas, terrain formations, or material storage in civil engineering.
The accuracy depends on the point density and the survey. With a GNSS antenna, centimeter-accurate measurements are possible.
Pricing depends on your use case.
