The Challenge
North Dakota winters are notoriously harsh, with temperatures often plummeting well below freezing and limited sunlight throughout the season. In January, the coldest month, average highs rarely exceed 20°F (-6°C), while lows can drop to -10°F (-23°C) or even lower. On particularly frigid days, construction teams may face temperatures as low as -25°F (-32°C).
One major challenge in such extreme conditions is keeping critical technology, such as construction cameras, operating reliably to support jobsite monitoring and documentation.
TrueLook Solution
To address these challenges, the Roers team implemented TrueLook Construction Cameras, designed specifically for rugged outdoor environments. These cameras consistently performed in extreme cold, providing dependable monitoring even during the harshest winter conditions.
The cameras offered flexible power options for year-round functionality: solar power supported summer operations, while 110V power met the demands of winter. Backup power systems ensured continuous operation during outages or severe storms. This adaptability allowed the Roers team to stay connected to their jobsites, regardless of weather or season.
"We rely on TrueLook Construction Cameras to keep us connected to our jobsites no matter the weather or location. From remote monitoring to the Procore integration, these cameras help us track progress, enhance safety, and stay coordinated—even in the toughest North Dakota winters."

The Results
With TrueLook Construction Cameras, Roers project managers avoided traveling in dangerous winter conditions by monitoring their jobsites remotely. This reduced risk and saved time, while still providing full visibility into site activities and progress.
The cameras’ continuous monitoring allowed Roers to maintain complete and accurate project documentation, even during severe weather events. This consistent tracking proved essential for staying on schedule, meeting milestones, and managing unforeseen challenges.
Real-time access to site footage also enabled the team to respond quickly to weather-related issues. Whether addressing snow buildup or unexpected delays, project managers could make informed decisions that kept the project moving forward.
By using TrueLook, Roers improved safety, protected critical documentation, and adapted to extreme weather without compromising project progress.
