Design Meets Reality: How Automatic Redlines Catch Construction Deviations Early
TaskMapper's Automatic Redlines uses weekly drone scans and the digital twin to instantly detect construction deviations from the IFC/CAD design (e.g., pile positions, tracker alignment). It generates geospatially precise redlines that automatically convert into assignable QC items or corrective tasks. This process minimizes rework, prevents design violations, and ensures a continuously updated as-built record.
Next-Gen Construction Monitoring & Operations Management
TaskMapper is a unified platform designed to automate, optimize, and simplify project management in the renewable, construction, and infrastructure industries to accelerate installations and streamline operations.

Building Solar With Certainty: End-to-End Material Traceability on Construction Sites
TaskMapper Inventory Management is a construction-ready tool for utility-scale solar, providing end-to-end material traceability from shipment to installation. It tracks materials across laydown yards, links all component movements and serial numbers to the project's Digital Twin, ensuring a continuous, accurate Bill of Materials. This specialized system eliminates shortages, replaces manual tracking, and provides auditable documentation for quality and warranty purposes.
Building the Digital Twin Before the First Pile: A Smarter Way to Commission and Handover
The Digital Twin for Solar is built by SenseHawk from the start of construction, integrating the plant's electrical and mechanical System Model with the site Map to track all construction history and QC. Commissioning is performed directly on the Twin using digital workflows tied to specific assets, resulting in the Twin automatically serving as the seamless handover package to O&M, eliminating data gaps and providing a complete, verified record for proactive asset management.
From Manual Updates to Autonomous Progress: Using Drones for Construction Tracking
Solar projects are automating progress tracking using scheduled drone flights (including autonomous "drones-in-a-box") to capture imagery. Taskmapper processes this data to enable automated activity detection (e.g., pile installation) and instantly updates the P6 schedule and dashboards. This shifts field engineers from manual reporting to high-value validation and oversight, creating a continuous, data-driven construction site.
Ending the Weekly Markup: Linking Construction Updates Directly to the P6 Schedule
Taskmapper automates solar project scheduling by allowing users to import P6/MS Project files and link activities directly to spatial locations on the map and detailed field workflows. As crews log geotagged progress updates via the mobile app, the system automatically updates the master schedule in real-time, eliminating manual reconciliation and providing planners with instant, accurate, and auditable status reports.
Turning Up the Heat on Rare Thermal Signatures
Solar thermal inspections are increasingly revealing rare and unusual thermal signatures—such as unique heating patterns in bifacial and half-cut modules, or dark material-concern patches—that deviate from standard issues. These anomalies have critical, undocumented implications for system performance and reliability, requiring solar professionals to understand and address them to protect yield and warranties.
Automating QC: How One EPC Digitized Their Entire Construction Workflow
An EPC client digitized their solar QC using Taskmapper, integrating imported CAD layers with linked construction workflows directly on a site map. This process automated progress tracking and embedded digital QC forms requiring geotagged photos and signatures at every step. The system automatically compiles complete, branded, and auditable QC reports, simultaneously linking progress updates to the main Project Schedule.
Why Every Solar Project Needs a Digital Twin
The Digital Twin for Solar unifies fragmented project data, acting as a single, living digital representation of a solar plant across its lifecycle. It integrates design, real-time construction monitoring (via drone data), and geotagged QC inspections into one system-of-record. This unified approach eliminates data silos, cuts rework, provides a seamless digital handover to O&M, and ultimately accelerates COD and improves plant uptime.
Building Confidence in Pile Quality
Taskmapper digitizes and streamlines solar project pile installation and QC, replacing spreadsheets with a real-time project map visualization. Automated workflows track progress, guide quality checks with required photo and signature capture, and ensure accuracy and accountability. The system automatically generates and saves the final QC report to the DMS, providing a single source of truth and eliminating manual errors.
