Drone Inspection Services

We deploy a wide array of compact drone systems to restricted scenes and confined spaces to accurately collect data, photographs, and videos crucial to an investigation.

Our team of structural engineers direct our certified advanced drone pilots to fly inside areas which otherwise would be hazardous or unsafe. Our ability to fly the interior and exterior of a site, when access would be otherwise prohibited or dangerous, provides our clients with all the information required for a structural evaluation of compromised facilities without costly shoring measures and delays. The capability of our drones to live broadcast means our structural engineer and pilot can perform an aerial inspection without attending the site at the same time, and our clients can view the scene in real time from their office.

Current Applications

• Damaged structures which are prohibited or dangerous to enter
• Interior and exterior drone inspections of trusses and roof lines
