What is the best time-lapse camera for documenting construction projects?

Today, the best time-lapse cameras, by capturing sequential photos over days, weeks, or even months and turning them into a short compressed video clip, have become a necessity in various fields, especially in the documentation of construction projects, environmental, infrastructure, and industrial sectors.
The reality is that many professional cameras and even smartphones have some form of time-lapse functionality that allows you to set an interval timer to take a series of photos. You can then combine them into a video. However, a major issue you face when using non-specialized time-lapse cameras or your phone is that Time-lapse videos are recorded over months or even years and using your everyday technology for that duration is impractical.
Given the limitations and challenges that regular cameras pose for capturing time-lapse videos, using a dedicated camera is considered a better alternative. This is because the camera is designed to last for months and continue its work in different weather conditions.
Next, we will get acquainted with the best time-lapse cameras for documenting construction projects.
