Construction & Development

The camera estate on a construction site is the most underused safety tool in the industry.

Canopy reads the CCTV your site already runs. Safety compliance, slab progress, and crew counts — without an additional sensor or manual inspection round.

Safety & loss prevention

Five categories. One camera network. Zero blind spots.

Construction carries the highest liability exposure of any built environment. Canopy turns the CCTV already on your perimeter and structure into a 24/7 safety and compliance layer — covering life-safety hazards the standard PPE checklist misses entirely.

What Canopy surfaces

Four intelligence layers for construction operators.

01

Safety & PPE compliance

Helmet, high-visibility vest, and harness detection per zone, per shift. Alerts trigger on first non-compliance frame. No footage clip is generated — only a zone, timestamp, and severity level.

Progress tracking

Slab completion percentage, formwork status, and structural milestone verification — tracked from fixed cameras covering each block. Weekly trend reports feed into project management and investor reporting.

Crew count & zone occupancy

Real-time headcount per zone. Entry and exit events at zone boundaries. Useful for shift handover reconciliation, subcontractor billing verification, and emergency muster counts.

Post-completion public-realm intelligence

When the district opens, the same camera estate flips to footfall and occupancy mode. Which plaza draws the crowd. Which retail bay is dead at lunch. Where to spend the next phase's public-realm budget.

Works with the camera infrastructure you already have.

Construction sites run CCTV for perimeter security and theft prevention. Canopy connects to that existing infrastructure — no new cameras, no rewiring, no integration project with the main contractor.

01
Canopy Edge Gateway connects to your NVR or IP cameras

ONVIF-compliant connection. Installed by Canopy in under a day. No disruption to your existing security CCTV feed.

02
Inference runs on-device

Models process camera feeds locally. No video leaves the site. PPE detections, headcounts, and progress signals are structured and forwarded as JSON — not pixels.

03
Intelligence appears in your dashboard within the hour

Zone occupancy, safety alerts, and progress tracking are live from day one. Historical trend data builds from the first connected frame.

Bring your site plan. We'll show you what Canopy would surface.

A 30-minute briefing against your actual site layout. No deck — just a live walkthrough of what the intelligence layer produces.
