It’s easier to see from up here.
You need tons of equipment for a proper structural inspection. Or one drone.
How It’s Done
Safety First
At ZeeDrone, safety is our utmost priority. Prior to every flight, we obtain all appropriate permissions from Nav Canada to fly in your area. Working closely with the client, we develop a detailed flight plan complete with takeoff locations and planned routes. At each jobsite, we complete a pre-flight checklist to ensure all proper precautions are taken and communicated to personnel on site.
Get up Close
By sending up ZeeDrone, inspections can be completed without the need for scissor lifts, swing stages, or rope access. Video can be streamed live to the pilot on the ground for real-time scrutiny. Remediation work can be targeted based on information gathered from the inspection, further reducing costs.
Comprehensive Data
With ZeeDrone in the air, we can get comprehensive photos, 4K videos, and 3D renderings of structures. This data can be compiled post-flight to give the owner a complete record of their structure at that point in time. Annual missions can be compared to the previous data set to determine precise changes to any part of the structure.
Inspection Portfolio
ZeeDrone was hired to improve the inspection procedures of the Automated People Mover elevated guideway, such that the train would not need to be shut down during inspections.
ZeeDrone is the first partner to have utilized drones for the structural inspection of the APM Guideway at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
Toronto Pearson International Airport
Due to the unique construction of the pods and bridges, getting access to the required infrastructure was nearly impossible without the use of a boat or rope access.
With ZeeDrone, high quality inspection footage was obtained safely, within a rapid timeline, and at considerable cost savings to alternative methods.
