Progress Tracking for Busy Job Sites
WCCTV delivers time lapse services for construction sites that give project teams a reliable way to document progress, track activity, and share updates with clients and stakeholders. Our systems work on active job sites with or without fixed power, and every installation is planned to capture a stable, high quality view of the build from start to finish.
Construction teams use time lapse to support reporting, maintain visibility, and produce professional video content that highlights milestone achievements. Key advantages include:
WCCTV manages the entire process, from camera placement and system setup to ongoing monitoring and final editing. Our goal is to supply a dependable, long term capture solution that works across all stages of a construction project, even in challenging or changing site conditions.
Full Support From Setup to Final Edit
WCCTV provides a managed construction time lapse service that covers planning, installation, long term recording, and final editing. We start with a site assessment to identify the best camera location and ensure the system captures a clear, stable view of the project. Our installation crews handle setup safely and align power and connectivity for reliable image uploads.
Once recording begins, images are captured at set intervals and uploaded to a secure portal where your team can review progress, download frames, and share updates with clients and stakeholders. To keep the project running smoothly, we monitor the system remotely and provide support throughout the build.
Key steps in the process include:
• Camera placement and planning
• Professional installation and configuration
• Live remote access and system monitoring
• Editing with branding, titles, and optional music
You get a streamlined workflow that documents the build clearly and delivers a polished final video for reporting, marketing, or project handover.
Capture Progress, Share Success
High resolution imagery captures clear detail across the full project timeline. You get sharp visuals that support reporting, client updates, and professional grade final videos.
Secure portal access lets teams check progress at any time. View images, download frames, and share updates with clients and stakeholders without visiting the job site.
Professional editing removes downtime and poor visibility to create a clean, engaging final video. Titles, branding, music, and transitions help present your work with impact.
Self powered and solar ready systems operate on sites without fixed power or Internet. This makes deployment simple on remote builds, phased projects, or temporary locations.

What Does a Construction Time Lapse Camera Do?
A construction time lapse camera captures high resolution images at scheduled intervals throughout the build. These images create a visual record that shows exactly how the project develops. Teams use this footage to track progress, share updates with clients, support reporting, and produce a final edited video that documents the full timeline of the work.
How Often Should a Time Lapse Camera Capture Images on a Jobsite?
Most construction projects use image intervals between five and fifteen minutes during active work hours. The ideal interval depends on project scale, movement on site, and how much detail the team needs. WCCTV can adjust capture rates to match project activity and ensure the final video delivers clear, smooth progression.
Do Construction Time Lapse Cameras Need Power or Internet?
WCCTV’s time lapse systems work without fixed power or wired Internet. They can operate using solar, battery, or hybrid power and transmit data over cellular networks. This makes them suitable for remote or temporary sites, early phases of construction, or locations where infrastructure is not yet in place.

Yes. WCCTV provides a secure online portal that allows teams to view live images, download frames, review progress, and share updates at any time. This helps project managers monitor activity without visiting the site and gives owners a convenient way to stay informed throughout the build.

You can use the finished video for client presentations, internal reporting, marketing, and future bids. Raw images and additional edits can also be provided if needed.
