Transmission corridor monitoring
Take powerline monitoring to new heights
Improve power line construction, management, and inspection by integrating 2D mapping with 3D models and analyzing various types of data.
We use drones or manned aircraft to take thousands of high-resolution photos of a site.

Macro mapping of the corridor happens with a high-powered camera sensor and LiDAR
Oblique high resolution imagery of the front and back of every power pole is captured along with nadir imagery and LiDAR data of the corridor.
Aerial imagery takes corridor maintenance to new heights
Cover more ground, from the air
A manned aircraft can quickly cover large areas, especially useful for monitoring long stretches of powerlines in remote or hard-to-reach places.
Jet-speed efficiency
Aerial inspections are much faster than ground-based methods, allowing for more frequent checks, better maintenance, and quicker problem identification.
1st-class safety
Aerial inspections minimize the necessity for workers to engage in dangerous activities such as scaling towers or traversing challenging landscapes, significantly lowering their risk exposure.
Economically efficient
Aerial surveys cut down on labor-intensive ground checks, covering large areas faster and reducing inspection costs while delivering more value than traditional methods.
Vegetation management
High-resolution aerial imagery aids in accurately monitoring vegetation growth near powerlines, reducing interference and the risk of outages and fires.
Regulatory compliance
Documentation helps meet regulatory requirements and proves proper maintenance during audits or investigations after an event.
Damage assessments
Following severe weather events or natural disasters, the use of aerial imagery can rapidly evaluate damage to power lines, facilitating prompt repairs and minimizing service interruptions for customers.
GIS integration
When integrated with geographic information systems (GIS), aerial imagery enhances spatial analysis and decision-making, leading to better planning and management of powerline corridors.
For more in-depth investigation or analysis, drones can be deployed.
Leverage LiDAR data to optimize vegetation management
Laser data from our mapping process allows us to assess the risk of vegetation-induced outages by analyzing the density, height, and closeness of vegetation to power lines. Accurate 3-D point cloud data for the transmission helps prioritize vegetation management, ensuring critical areas are addressed first.
