Gathering more than one progress data set separately is the only way to get a single data set. If you try a single measurement or combine them to early you will get [many] layers of people making stuff up and the further up you go the more nonsensical the data gets.

If someone has only half (or less) of the data to forge his lies out of the creative book keeping window is almost gone. Employees with 10-20 years of experience generate lies of undetectable mind blowing quality. I've seen people negotiate their way out of 100% of their job arguing they didn't have time for it.

This is so true and absolutely correct. The issue though is not gathering our data (progress) its comparing it against they're engineering drawing etc.. that are constantly changing on a file share that we never know about.

You want it geo-referenced? Good luck.. so you end up putting a bunch of people on the team working for them to get decent data which bloats your budget and then you look bad to client.

Have to find cheap measuring points.
