Beyond Futuristic Cameras
Industries operate complex systems and assets that need continuous inspection. Using aerial drone inspections, owners, developers, contractors and managers can now better supervise their industrial assets in a much faster and effective way. From collecting precise data, to observing up-to-date timelines of development, drones become and indispensable industrial tool.
Industrial inspections with drones can focus on industries such as energy, agriculture, construction, mining, utilities, real estate and more. Studies predict that drones will likely replace $149 million worth of existing business services and labour, boosting their use to unprecedented levels.
Drones can inspect tall and complex structures very easily. Multi stores structures, oil rigs, platforms, towers and chimneys can be very risky for human pilots or manned flying devices, especially in bad weather conditions or hostile environments. Inspection reports produced by drones offer invaluable information about an asset’s condition, enabling critical operational or maintenance decisions. With timely live inspections, high resolution stills, HD video and infrared images, experienced inspection engineers can speed up projects with much higher safety and lower costs.
Drones can also provide close visual and thermal inspections and surveys of difficult to reach assets, such as flare stacks and flare tips, enabling critical maintenance decisions while reducing the potential risk of costly delays. Drones can also inspect safety-conscious, cost sensitive power and utility infrastructures, improving maintenance regimes, reducing costs and improving safety.
