Infrastructure Inspection
Thanks to the flight stability and the advent of airworthy media equipment for the sUAS, inspection imagery can be obtained which is sharp, detailed, and offers unique perspectives. To prevent service interruptions, equipment faults, and possibly significant accidents and damage, assets must be regularly abstract thesis example inspected to detect any issues as early as possible. This is increasingly vital as infrastructure ages. New infrastructure ventures can benefit from these same methods to track progress and ensure facility integrity.
Manual Inspection of assets, whether these assets are new or in place for years, is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process that comprises a significant percentage of a utility’s operating costs each year. In some cases, manual inspection of certain assets can be dangerous and require shutdown, resulting in loss of revenue. Drones can fly in close proximity to dangerous equipment or hazardous environments, capturing imagery in high resolution, while equipment is in operation, without the need to expose personnel to dangers.
Additionally, large amounts of multi-perspective imagery can be logged and converted into digital photogrammetry resulting in comprehensive orthomosaic images. Turnaround time is a few hours, instead of days, weeks, or months when compared with traditional manual inspection or manned-aircraft methods.
Georgia Geo‘s DJI Matrice 600, an advanced and uniquely stable airborne platform, is equipped with sophisticated sensors and airborne cameras capable of gathering a broad spectrum of data specifically responsive to the client’s needs. We can work closely with engineering staff who can assess, interpret, and analyze the data allowing for more expedited evaluations of construction, maintenance, or repair.
Not only is the use of Georgia Geo‘s sUAS more efficient, there is a fully realized potential for enhanced safety. Structural assets such as cell towers, power transmission lines, and power generation installations require constant monitoring as new technologies, equipment, and antennae abstract outline are changed, repaired, replaced, bought and sold. Operators, buyers, and sellers realize the value of a significant reduction in time spent inspecting for integration, equipment verification, space availability, and asset condition.
Safety First
Most importantly, SAFETY is enhanced. No longer is there a need to utilize rope, harness, scaffolding, or other safety equipment to access assets.
