USING DRONES FOR INDUSTRY INSPECTIONS

Inspectors can review collected data in comprehensive detail

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

ADVANCED AERIAL ASSESSMENTS

Visual inspections are necessary across almost all industries, from industrial HVAC equipment to the tops of cell phone towers. Having an experienced, qualified inspector with an eye for detail and the knowledge to spot potential problems is essential to keeping everything in proper working order.

Instead of dealing with the challenges of a manned inspection, we can send a drone to get clear 360-degree assessments remotely, then zero-in for granular inspections where indicated, checking for movement, cracks, or other problems around support beams and structural elements.

BENEFITS

WHY CHOOSE DRONE INSPECTIONS

When considering a method of site inspection, there are a number of benefits to consider

REDUCING COSTS

Drone inspection is more cost-effective than using ground crews or traditional aviation methods. Minimizing expensive equipment can save tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

  • Reduced scaffolding costs
  • Minimized downtime expenses
  • Lower insurance costs

FASTER PROJECT LIFECYCLE

From requirements to sign-off, drone aerial imaging makes it possible to keep projects on track and on budget throughout the entire project lifecycle.

  • Simplified compliance documentation
  • Streamlined reporting
  • Quick turnaround times

SAFETY FIRST

The leading reason is safety. Inspectors no longer need to climb hundreds of feet or face hazardous conditions. A drone accesses difficult locations remotely.

  • Eliminates fall hazards
  • No confined space entry
  • Remote structural verification

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

BEYOND VISUAL INSPECTIONS

Not everything can be inspected visually. Thermal, multi-spectral and topographical views from drone imaging support a variety of advanced inspection tasks.

Drones equipped with thermal imaging cameras can detect differences in temperature which may indicate surface degradation, moisture intrusion, cracks, or other structural flaws invisible to the naked eye.

DOCUMENTATION

IMPROVED DOCUMENTATION

Drone footage highlights changes in structures or equipment over time for comprehensive record-keeping

COMPLETE BUILDING DOCUMENTATION

High-resolution cameras and advanced scanning software capture every inch of a building's exterior, creating detailed 3D models that give our team and clients a comprehensive visual record of the property.

FASTER PROJECT LIFECYCLE

From requirements to sign-off, drone aerial imaging keeps projects on track and on budget. Minimize downtime and expose issues before they create hazards or delays.

HISTORICAL COMPARISON

Compare previous and current data to monitor concerns over time. This minimizes liability and provides clear documentation in the event of an accident or insurance claim.

AI-ASSISTED ANALYSIS

Our technology utilizes artificial intelligence to automatically detect potential issues, ensuring nothing is overlooked and providing faster turnaround times at lower costs.
