Carmichael Development, a premier Sitework and Design Build company, based in Woodstock, GA, thrives on innovation. We understand that the construction industry is constantly evolving, and staying ahead of the curve requires embracing innovative technologies transforming sitework today. This blog post dives into some of the most exciting advancements transforming sitework, with a particular focus on Leica GPS, Agtek, drone technology, and Augmented Reality (AR).
Leica Geosystems: High-Precision Tools for Enhanced Efficiency
Leica Geosystems is a powerhouse in the field of surveying and measurement instruments. Carmichael Development incorporates a suite of Leica technologies to ensure exceptional accuracy and efficiency throughout your project:
- Leica Geosystems Total Stations: These advanced instruments provide pinpoint accuracy for tasks like measuring distances, angles, and elevations. This precise data is crucial for site planning, stakeout, and ensuring proper foundation construction.
- Leica Geosystems GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Solutions: GNSS technology utilizes satellite signals to determine precise locations. Carmichael Development leverages GNSS for real-time machine guidance and accurate site mapping, streamlining workflows and minimizing errors.
- Leica Geosystems Machine Control Systems: These innovative systems integrate with construction equipment, allowing for automated grading, excavation, and paving. This translates to significant improvements in productivity, reduced rework, and superior finish quality on your Woodstock, GA project.

Agtek: Advanced Software for Streamlined Workflows
Agtek software solutions empower Carmichael Development to manage sitework projects with unparalleled efficiency:
- Gradeworks by Agtek: This powerful software allows for the creation of 3D digital terrain models (DTMs) of your site. Gradeworks then calculates optimal cut-and-fill volumes for excavation and earthwork, minimizing material waste and optimizing resource allocation.
- Siteworks by Agtek: Streamline site planning, design, and permitting processes with Siteworks. This comprehensive software integrates with Leica Geosystems instruments, providing seamless data flow and enhanced project collaboration.

Drones: Taking Sitework to New Heights
Drones are no longer just for hobbyists. In the realm of sitework, they offer a multitude of advantages that Carmichael Development leverages to your project’s benefit:
- Enhanced Site Mapping and Surveying: Capture high-resolution aerial imagery of your Woodstock, GA site. This data is used to create detailed 3D models and precise maps, informing crucial decisions related to site planning, excavation activities, and overall project layout.
- Progress Monitoring: Regularly collect aerial data using drones to track construction progress. This allows for proactive identification of potential delays, enabling adjustments to be made and ensuring project timelines are met.
- Improved Safety: Drones can be invaluable for inspecting hard-to-reach areas or hazardous environments, minimizing risks for human workers. For instance, drones can be used to inspect rooftops or evaluate the stability of slopes, safeguarding workers from unnecessary dangers.
Augmented Reality (AR): Merging the Physical and Digital for Informed Decisions
AR overlays virtual information onto the real world, offering a powerful tool for sitework projects:
- AR Site Overlays: Imagine construction workers viewing a virtual 3D model superimposed on the actual site. This allows for visualization of underground utilities, planned structures, and other crucial details. This enhanced spatial awareness improves decision-making during sitework and minimizes the risk of encountering unforeseen obstacles.
- Improved Design Communication: Utilize AR to showcase project designs to clients and stakeholders in a more immersive and interactive manner. This fosters better understanding, facilitates informed feedback, and streamlines the design approval process.
