Ever needed aerial vision to give you confidence in that important project decision or to fast-track decision making?
Or maybe the aerial vision could assist that emergency situation with high risk to people or property?
In many situations, the collection of accurate, real-time vision by ‘traditional’ aerial methods such as satellite imagery, planes or helicopters cannot be obtained quick enough or as detailed as you like. Limiting factors include: –
- Satellite imagery is not generally real-time or lacks sufficient resolution; and
- Helicopter or plane flights cannot always be organised quickly enough; and
- Aircraft can’t get close enough to see the issue at the required angle or detail; and
- The cost to hire aircraft or satellites for bespoke missions can be prohibitive.
Other traditional methods such as scaffolding, ropes and man hoists also have limiting factors such as: –
- Supply and installation time can be lengthy; and
- The method can be cost prohibitive for the issue at hand; and
- Due to the location, the method may be too dangerous for workers to undertake e.g. elevated or in a hazardous environment.
