Using drones creates a dramatic increase in worker safety. This is highlighted in facilities such as oil and gas refineries that have multiple hostile environments including confined spaces, tall and complex stacks and pipelines, hazardous materials and areas with oxygen-poor atmospheres. Minimising the amount of human intervention needed for such asset inspection drastically reduces the chance of worker injuries or fatalities.

Using drones for inspection could save your company money in many ways – from requiring less manpower through to removing the need to erect scaffolding or pay for a cherry picker. A drone inspection provides a more cost-effective and efficient solution – enabling more frequent checks. This in turn means that any problems can be identified and remedied a lot quicker.

Using drones for inspection allows you to keep operations and assets open and running while critical inspections are conducted. With less need to erect scaffolding, towers and other equipment, surveillance can be carried out faster. Reducing, or even removing downtime, can save your organisation huge amounts of money.

Drones collect incredibly high quality data, which can be archived to create a detailed record of an asset’s lifecycle. Drones can conduct automated, repeatable missions, ensuring the data is consistent each time – especially vital for regular and comparative checks. This data is easily shareable using standard software and analytical tools, such as Pix4D or DJI Terra.

These multi-sensor payloads that bring a whole new meaning to mission efficiency. The unique intelligence and integrated design provide unprecedented aerial imaging capabilities for a range of commercial drone applications.

The DJI Zenmuse P1 integrates a full-frame sensor with interchangeable fixed-focus lenses on a 3-axis stabilized gimbal. Designed for photogrammetry flight missions, it takes efficiency and accuracy to a whole new level.

The Phase One iXm incorporates the first medium-format sensor with backside-illumination technology, enabling high light sensitivity and extended dynamic range to satisfy diverse mapping & surveying applications.

Hovermap is an autonomous mapping payload. Lightweight and versatile, it can be mounted to a drone for autonomous mapping in challenging and inaccessible areas.

Trendspek connects asset owners, operators and engineers, through a simple to use online platform. Form opinions, make decisions and reach outcomes faster by collaborating on a single source of truth.

Don’t leave detailed inspections to chance, get the whole picture with true to life digital models.

Use DJI Terra to capture, analyse and visualize your environment. DJI Terra is an easy to use mapping software developed to help you transform your drone data into digital assets.

DJI Terra offers unparalleled efficiency and user experience by allowing you to bulk import images and employ multiple graphics cards simultaneously all within its intuitively designed interface.

Visualise, localise, and document your inspection data so your team and clients can use it to make critical decisions.

The mapping feature of Inspector 3.0 relies on Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO). VIO estimates the position and velocity of Elios 2 by using only the input of the main camera plus the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) attached to it. VIO is a viable alternative to GPS and lidar-based odometry to achieve accurate state estimation.

Pix4D mapper is the leading aerial photogrammetry software. It turns your images into highly precise, geo-referenced 2D maps and 3D models.

Customisable, timely, and complements a wide range of applications and software.
