Oil and Gas

Gather detailed information and provide instant accessibility. Aerial data gathering is a superior method to the traditional means used historically in the energy industry.

  • Live Kast Video Inspections

  • 3D Mapping/Modeling

  • Thermography Surveys

  • LiDAR/LDAR

  • Pipeline ROW Inspections

Solar

We use Software analysis and machine learning to determine where anomalies exist at your solar farm. Offering everything from a standard inspections with optional “Live Kast” video conferencing, to a fully comprehensive commissioning and/or warranty inspection with a quick turnaround.

- Analyzing all anomalies relating to: Cell, Combiners, Cracking, Delamination, Diode, Hot Spot, Inverter, Junction box, Module, Missing module, Shadowing, String, Tracker, Reverse polarity, Vegetation, and Suspected PID.

Environmental

Monitor land for changes by aerial surveillance using drones reduces land surveying costs significantly and can be used to provide a greater amount of data than by traditional means. Data can be gathered and shared nearly instantaneously.

  • Erosion Surveys

  • Photogrammetry

  • Volume calculations

  • Live Kast Video Inspections

Security and Surveillance

Monitor for signs of trespassing, vandalism, or theft. Monitoring of large sites can be difficult to achieve by traditional means. Using aerial imaging and mapping, drones can provide detailed information needed to ensure a safe and secure work site.

  • Week-to-week comparison mapping

  • Equipment location info

  • Site Damage Inspections

  • Perimeter monitoring

Engineering & Design

Data collection is required prior to engineering and design for any new construction. Aerial technology can obtain the needed information safer and more cost effective. Accuracy is crucial, and using aerial data collection gives you the ability to provide both accuracy and precision resulting in an overall superior product.

  • RTK Mapping with centimeter accuracy

  • Progression photo overlays

  • Organized reference database

Construction

Improve communication and collaboration between the field and office via aerial data collection. Drones make it simple to access site safety before, during and after construction activities.

  • Site progression photos

  • Detailed Orthomosaic images

  • Volume measurements

  • Equipment surveillance

  • Engineering Data Collection
