Lower inspection costs

Companies and organizations are increasingly using drones for inspections due to the significant cost savings they offer. Aerial inspections with drones are faster and eliminate the need for time-consuming preparations, such as assembling scaffolding and ensuring breathable air. By streamlining the inspection process, drones save time, resources, and directly reduce expenses. Moreover, by reducing the risk faced by inspectors, companies can also lower their liability insurance costs.

Better imagery and data collection

Drones provide the advantage of capturing high-quality images, videos, measurements, and thermal images. They can access angles and locations that are often impossible for human workers to reach. Drones allow for repetitive shots in the same location, facilitating easy comparison of before-and-after images for maintenance or repair work. Engineers can leverage aerial imagery obtained by drones to accurately assess the condition of structures, plan projects, and track progress. Furthermore, drones can be equipped with sensors like infrared imaging devices and gas leak detectors, enabling the collection of diverse data parameters quickly and efficiently. The data can be transmitted in real-time using communication technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or mobile data, allowing stakeholders to view images instantly.

Saves time

Drones eliminate the need for transporting and installing scaffolding, ladders, and other access equipment, significantly reducing the time required for inspections. Traditional methods involve long lead times, complex access equipment setups, and manual data collection processes. In contrast, drone inspections expedite the evaluation of structures and the decision-making process for necessary repairs, preventing costly failures. Drone inspections can be planned and completed within an hour, while traditional manual methods may take days or weeks.

Ability to hard-to-reach places

Drones provide a cost-effective, faster, and safer solution for inspecting challenging structures. Complex buildings with intricate designs and roofs are often difficult to assess using conventional methods. Traditional inspections require specialized climbing equipment and skilled labor, leading to higher costs. Drones can access confined spaces and hard-to-reach areas of complex structures more easily, reducing costs, time, and risks. They enable inspections in areas that are otherwise inaccessible, expanding the coverage area and improving the reliability of assessment and maintenance programs.

Improved safety

Drones can access hazardous areas and confined spaces, minimizing the risks to worker safety and health. Unlike traditional methods that may require specialized clothing and equipment for inspecting dangerous locations, drones require less effort. They allow workers to inspect buildings from a safe distance, eliminating the need to expose them to potential dangers. By providing a faster, safer, and cost-effective option for inspections, drones offer a range of benefits, including reduced inspection risks, lower costs, and quicker access to structural condition information.
