High Resolution Images

In order to determine the asset condition of networks, the typical method has been by resources on foot. This can be a very slow process to access each pole and conductors along spans. This is
where aerial-based systems play a key role in data capture. High volumes of data can be captured in a very short period of time. UAS(drones) and helicopters provide the perfect vehicle to capture
asset integrity. 

Having the appropriate sensor to capture assets is critical to ensure that there is the appropriate level detail for the AI or PLP Analysts to determine the reliability concerns. When the temperature anomalies have been identified, corrective actions can be implemented prior to catastrophic failure. Modern drones now have the ability to have multiple sensor payloads.

Current: When the temperature anomalies have been identified, corrective actions can be implemented prior to catastrophic failure. Modern drones now have the ability to have multiple sensor payloads.

Proposed: All aspects of the pole and line hardware are classified using the EEA Asset Health Index as a guide with classifications of H1 to H5.

Sensor options include high resolution RGB, infrared, corona and LiDAR.
