Abstract :
    This paper presents a novel framework for sustainable construction monitoring using advanced computer vision and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. The proposed approach integrates drone-based imagery, YOLOv8 real-time detection, and Vision Transformers (ViT) to analyze construction site activities with respect to sustainability metrics. Experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in detection accuracy, carbon emission estimation, and compliance verification compared to traditional manual inspection methods.
