Cut / fill between any two surfaces
Progress flight against the design model, this month against last. A slider divides the screen; each half shows any dataset at its own opacity.
Hive
One map for everything a site has ever been.
The DirtWorks site database and viewer.
What it is
Keyed to the land, not the job.
Most project data dies with the project. Hive keeps it with the ground. Every flight, surface, boundary, plan sheet, soils sample and document lands on the Site it belongs to — whoever flew it, drew it or paid for it — so the next owner, contractor or engineer starts with the full history instead of a blank sheet.
Drop a folder in. Hive reads where the data sits on the earth and files it on the right site automatically.
01
Flights by date
Hummingbird deliverables stack up per site: point clouds, bare-earth surfaces, orthos, classification. A date slider walks the site through time.
02
Designs and linework
Finished-grade and original-ground models from your design software, CAD boundaries and utilities — in your standing layer colors, over the imagery.
03
Plan View
Upload the plan set, pick the sheets, georeference them in the browser. Sheets become map layers; revisions sit under the plan set.
What it does
From a pile of files to numbers you can defend.
Acreage, trees, stockpiles, clear-and-grub
Reads Hummingbird's classification: acres per cover class, trees by height band, stockpile volumes, and a clear-and-grub table on your own factors. Printable.
A viewer the client can actually open
Streamed point clouds and 3D tiles over a base map, in the browser. Send a link instead of a hard drive. Public sites need no login.
DirtWorks Field on a tablet
The cut/fill map with your position on it, from the device GPS and compass. Pick the job you're standing on; it's listed first.
Who sees what
Your company's data stays your company's.
PRIVATE
Default
Everything a company uploads is visible to that company's users only. Invite clients by link; they see their own jobs.
SHARED
By invitation
Share a site with another company — the engineer, the GC, the owner — without handing over the files.
PUBLIC
In the gallery
Make a site public and it appears as a cell on the DirtWorks home page for anyone to explore.
ALWAYS
The originals
Hive keeps the exact file that was delivered next to every web-ready copy. Download what you were sent.
