The FieldAR mobile app enables your entire project team to effortlessly view the latest BIM/3D design models overlaid onto your real-world construction site using precision augmented reality. FieldAR’s primary objective is to provide a central source of truth for quality assurance, quality control, and the precise locations of installed systems and equipment at active or completed construction sites. With FieldAR, users can visualize BIM/3D models overlaid onto real-world construction sites with a simple, single-tap operation, making it easy for even non-tech-savvy field staff to see the exact locations of designed building system elements. BIM/VDC Managers can leverage the FieldAR plugins to easily upload and update models directly to the FieldAR mobile app, ensuring that the entire team is working with the most current information. Additionally, markups captured by team members using the mobile app on-site can be viewed back in the BIM platforms through the FieldAR plugins, creating a seamless workflow of information between off-site BIM management and the construction site. FieldAR empowers your team to save money, reduce re-work, and optimize project schedules while enhancing productivity and collaboration.
