1. Positioning: face the camera as close as possible to due North.
2. Placement: placing the camera outside the construction area captures more of the job site and allows for seamless time-lapse videos.
3. Perspective: mount the camera higher than the planned build to capture all stories or levels.
4. Phasing: take project phases or tilt-up construction into account to ensure the camera’s view isn’t obstructed as the project progresses.
5. Power: if you’re not using an OxBlue solar power station, pick a location where power can be conveniently run to the camera.
