	Frequently, technology developed with one application in mind is adapted to suit other purposes/industries and, as a result some of the ‘tools’ in the surveyor’s tool box have got a lot more interesting.

	The advantages for the drone piloting surveyor are significant. No longer are high level roof inspections tricky, potentially dangerous or even downright impossible. A drone provides clear, high quality imagery and video footage without the surveyor leaving the ground. The benefits: greater accuracy of reporting, potential cost saving to clients through improved efficiency, improved health & safety and fun to use too.

−	Taking the idea of constant monitoring one step further is global building giant Skanska. They have recently announced a ‘smart helmet’ trial on some of their sites. These augmented reality hard hats provide intelligent information about the world around them, with data and information overlaid on the wearer’s line of sight. Giving instant access on site to a wide range of information, including product & design, this new piece of kit aims to improve both the efficiency and safety of a construction site. ~~A big ‘thumbs up’ from the Health & Safety boys!~~	+	Taking the idea of constant monitoring one step further is global building giant Skanska.

	And of course, there is BIM; the ultimate in collaboration tools. It describes the process of designing a building collaboratively using one coherent system of computer models. It aims to achieve enormous savings in cost and time, much greater accuracy in estimation, and the avoidance of error, alterations and rework due to information loss during the complete lifecycle of a building.

That way, as an industry, we will be able to prosper for many years to come.
