THE BENEFITS OF USING DRONES FOR AERIAL SURVEYS & INSPECTIONS

The Benefits of Using Drones For Aerial Surveys & Inspections. 

We often get asked whats the biggest benefits of using APT to carry out drone aerial surveys. Here are a few of the reasons why our drone surveys can save you time and money:


  1. A safer working environment - no working at height and or organising road closures
  2. Personnel can remain on the ground instead of working at height, in most weathers reduced downtime.
  3. Massive saving on cost often you need to allow for large access platforms and a qualified man to use it as well as a second man on the platform taking photos and notes.
  4. Our drones can undertake an aerial survey in hours which may take a ground based site team days to complete at extra cost and time against programme. 
  5. Our UAV drone can reach work heights (up to 120 meters) in less than a minute and begin producing results immediately.
  6. Transmitting data back to the office and clients in real time during the aerial survey.
  7. Rapidly provide evidence of structural damage for insurance claims to speed up the claim process.
  8. Higher quality imagery – both video and photographs from any vantage point.
  9. Our highly-skilled UAV operators can fly within 2 metres of the survey structure, producing unsurpassed image quality in great detail.
  10. Making the inaccessible accessible instantly.
  11. Our UAV drone can be directed to areas such as wind turbine blade tips or HV electrical   installations to perform a survey that would traditionally be dangerous and time-consuming in a matter of minutes.
  12. Using real-time imagery streamed to the ground, our engineer can direct the drone to investigate any potential issues while the UAV is in the air allowing focused results in real time.
  13. Our UAV drones have GPS-based autopilot that not only allows us to 'lock' the UAV in the air at a specific location while we video and photograph the required areas but also brings the UAV drone home automatically if radio contact is lost - increasing safety on-site.
