2122 Trimble says that its Construction Manager version 2.5 package offers polygon site management and better support for CAD map overlays, using imagery provided by 1224 Google Maps. This advanced remote construction asset management solution combines GPS technology with wireless communication and Internet capabilities. The package can supply quantitative information to analyse and improve asset productivity, saving time and cutting construction project costs. The software features interpret charts, reports, and dashboard views, providing information for analysing and evaluating construction operations. Users can generate multi-sided polygon sites for managing equipment site entries and exits, as well as on-site machine utilisation and productivity reporting. For complex road construction and quarry sites, the package can produce site reports that allow accurate job coding and time-on-site data.
