Utility-scale solar farm as-built & pile survey

As-built verification of 14,000 driven piles across a 120 ha solar array, flagging out-of-tolerance positions before tracker installation.

◇ Challenge

Manual pile-by-pile GNSS check was running three weeks behind the pile driver, with racking crews arriving before tolerances were confirmed.

◇ Approach

Daily PPK photogrammetry over the active block, automated pile-head detection and comparison against IFC coordinates with per-pile deviation reporting.

◇ Outcome

Tolerance report in the site office each evening. 212 piles flagged and corrected before racking, avoiding an estimated three weeks of rework.
