Claim 0:
1. A method for monitoring lift events at a construction site comprising:
accessing a first timeseries of load values output by a load sensor, coupled to a crane hook, during a first time period;
deriving a set of characteristics of an object carried by the crane hook during the first time period based on the first timeseries of load values;
identifying a type of the object based on the set of characteristics;
selecting a buffer distance for the object based on the set of characteristics;
accessing a georeferenced boundary of a no-fly zone proximal the construction site;
accessing a sequence of geospatial locations of the object during a second time period succeeding the first time period;
flagging a subset of geospatial locations, within the sequence of geospatial locations of the object, that fall within the buffer distance of the no-fly zone; and
generating a lift event record defining the type of the object and comprising the subset of geospatial locations that fall within the buffer distance of the no-fly zone.
